American Athletic Conference

Will your runways handle the weight of the Antonov An-225?

The runway wouldn't be the problem. Some of the bridges between the airport and IBA couldn't handle what the AN-225 can carry.

Yea, I know it's a stretch, but that thing reminds me of the alien craft in Battleship.







... and back on topic...

I'm am so impressed with The American Digital Network on YouTube. It is going to be neat to watch our teams this next year. The live productions I have seen for tennis, baseball and softball are really good. And the summaries are great as well. What a step up. This will be a great way for us (as in US as fans) to promote WSU on social media. Just link to the live coverage, replays, and summaries of our teams.

WSU has joined the big leagues by far now!

With the upcoming change to the “American”, it might be a good time to consider updating the “Links” page. I’m not sure about others, but I’ve always found the page helpful. I appreciate all the work and commitment that goes into maintaining this website. Much thanks to @_kai_: and fellow mods. I apologize if I’ve been a pain in your keister at times.

It's gonna happen. We just need more click bait.

Ok, here's another topic for discussion that I've almost posted on a couple of time but have refrained. I love that we are in the American, BUT........the logo, it's really just not that great. Everytime I look at it I see so many things wrong from a graphic design standpoint. I'm nit-picking I know.

Must be the colors... :)

Why doesn't the bottom left point of the star touch the edge of the "A" like the rest!!! It's driving me crazy!!

Is it me or does the top right point of the star look longer than the top left point. It's driving me more crazy!!

I've heard of "reaching for the stars" but here the star is reaching for the top of the "A." Why in the heck would it be doing that????

The court design for the conference tournament is a busy mess. I don't mind the "A" logo at center court, but the stars in the lane gots ta go!

Yes...nitpicky.

...And lastly, the star either looks drunk to the side like that or is trying to do some gymnastics routine. WhY?

Ok I'm done.

The rarest trick in recuriting is to out-perform conference affiliation.

I was real impressed of The American golf championship being on YouTube today. So are all sports going to be covered that way??? Also when do you think all the MVC teams/info are going to be removed and replaced by the new American teams?
