The MVC needs to step up in its gifts to its players. I mean, a freakin' T-Shirt while the A-10 gives out a blue-ray player, or Bose headphones. C'mon cheapskates

Fossil watch, and players from the Final Four teams also will receive a Jostens ring, Wilson backpack and mini basketball, Lucite game ticket, Final Four floor piece, Final Four hat, bench chair and Beats by Dr. Dre headphones

One of the main concerns is what happened to the old big east with the basketball only schools might happen to the MWC. The problem with that concern was big east was basketball first and half the conference was basketball only. MWC will only have 1 basketballl only member only with you guys and you guys probably don't mind that.
The MWC tourney is held in Vegas which is a great place thus you guys won't have attendance issues. Just make sure your school has in place a ticket policy because New Mexico and Wyoming has been known to go to other schools ticket office and buy all of their tickets out. Fresno learned this the hard way which about 60% of their tickets were bought by New Mexico fans.

Lostshocker, I'm not so sure you're correct in negating the initiative that a good AD has in steering the ship. Granted, Prez Bardo has the ultimate say, but ADES should be constantly looking for options and presenting them. There is the problem. A lot of us think he's a nice fellow but perhaps a little passive and without vision.
I do agree with '89 that ADES is a good soldier and follows commands well and would certainly look into it if directed by his boss. But is it really Pres Bardo's job to completely understand the lay of the land and all the changing parts of athletic conferences, or is that really the AD's job?
Time to lead ADES.

Sometimes I forget we even have an AD. I can't even remember the last time I've heard the man. I guess I'm still used to the previous administration. Either that, or he realizes he needs to brush up on his speaking skills.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.
