American: 3 weeks of media rollout on how great the conference and Wichita State are, focusing on how WSU helps strengthen the conference to their desired level.
MVC: Tiny-britches-wearing school gets more from the league than we get from them.

Pretty sure Mike Aresco uses Burt Reynolds' plastic surgeon. Nevertheless, awesome that the league's PR department is putting on the full court press. I'm sure UMKC can count on a similar rollout from the MVC.Wichita State, home of the All-Americans.

"Remember all that talk about the University of Cincinnati joining the Big 12? Remember how it all amounted to nothing?
In case you missed it, UC made a bid to join the Big 12 six months ago, hoping to enter a power five conference. Ultimately, UC and a slew of other schools in the American Athletic Conference were denied entry into the Big 12.
Cincinnati, Houston and Memphis weren’t outright rejected by the Big 12. Instead, the conference decided that it was in its own best interest not to expand.
The non-move provided a lesson for UC and Bearcat fans: Moving to another athletic conference is by no means guaranteed, even for the most attractive candidates.
For now, it appears that UC will stay put in the AAC, whether they like it or not.
...It’s no wonder then that the AAC voted unanimously to add Wichita State.
The move is a win-win for both sides. Wichita State gets to play in a conference that is more competitive than the Missouri Valley Conference, which reps teams like Loyola and Bradley, and the AAC gets to add a great basketball program.
Perhaps the move could start a domino effect of sorts by attracting other teams like Gonzaga or Dayton.
Building the AAC into a more competitive conference may be the most realistic way for UC to play in a power conference.
Why not? Who needs a power five when you can create a power six?"SHOCKERS & AWE

This really is more "fan love" than "media love", but Adam Warne just knocks these videos out of the park. If this video doesn't make you want to build a brick wall and then run through it, I don't what will. Very well done, Adam Warne! I hope this Facebook video link is public, BTW.
