The problem I read about UIW is that their basketball program is one of the worst in the country in Div I. It is true that UIW has some major money players involved with that school and its true that Eric Morris has done a great job building that program, but they would need some serious improvement to move into the conference.
I think the WAC needs to really reconsider this move. This would be a Southland Conference move in my opinion.
