Re: AAC adds Wichita State
You have to think App would have been a front runner if we had even a decent basketball team. Having one of the worst basketball programs in D1 for almost a decade is a huge drag on an otherwise spectacular athletic department.

It would also help if we had a Koch brother willing to pour unlimited funds into our athletic department like Wichita does.Gonzo wrote:You have to think App would have been a front runner if we had even a decent basketball team.

Nope. Maybe down the road, but not now. The AAC now has 12 non-football members and 12 football members.appfanjj wrote:WSU football.....coming soon to a stadium near you.
Funny thing about this move is that John Bardo, the chancellor who infamously FUBAR'ed Western Carolina's football team in the early 2000's (although he was a fantastic academic chancellor), is now the president of Wichita State.
