    Since we are specifically talking about realignment what are you suggesting. Multiple suitors? If you are talking about just in general, well than ya think.
    My statement was just a general one. I think the AAC thing isn't gonna hinge on the specific play in this tournament. It's either happening or it isn't IMO.

      I don't disagree that it probably doesn't hinge on it but you don't think a deep run would give the momentum a bit of of a boost?

        Would agree with this.

        Conferences should be looking at commitment to the program outside of wins and losses and where we place our expectations.

        Which, to be honest, go beyond whether Marshall is here or not as well. Hypothetically speaking, I have no doubt, this ball continues to roll. He has put us at that level.

          It absolutely couldn't hurt. That's been kinda our staple in this run of 6 straight. Let's hope tonight is the start of a beautiful weekend.

            I hope we have 3G here for a long time. But - if he decides to leave - we will have a long - long - long line of coaches applying for the WSU job. Even current P5 guys $3.3 is top ten $$$. Heck - I might even apply - I had a great record coaching in Biddy Basketball.

              Sorry, I was trying to be funny, didn't mean to pile on the double link posts. They aren't a big deal. Would see click it twice than miss it altogether!

              • I do hope Marshall stays. Indiana is a tough job. The fans there demand success on the level of Kentucky and Duke, but the program just doesn't appeal to recruits the way other blue bloods do.

                With or without him though, this Cincinnati fan is pulling for you guys to get the invite.

                • University of Houston fan here. Cougar Nation strongly supports WSU's entrance into the AAC. I love what you guys would bring to our conference and both basketball and baseball. We are getting our act back together in basketball, and opening our new basketball arena in 2018 is going to be huge for our program. I sincerely hope WSU fans will get to help us open the Tilman J. Fertitta Center in 2018. We might be able to compete with you by then.

                  Pulling for you in March Madness. Good luck!!

                  • How many of these supportive posts do we need before it's a done deal? Is anybody keeping track?

                    It makes so much sense for WSU and the AAC to marry that pessimist me is sure it will never happen. My self-loathing has no bounds.
                    One quick note before we present the rankings: With Wichita State’s move to the American Athletic Conference, the Shockers have moved out of the mid-major club. We wish the Shockers well against Cincinnati, UConn, SMU, and more.

                              Yeah, but how do you explain your actions in Canada? :-)
