WSU fan, I may have watched my last college football game. I have no interest in watching MWC games, and have no interest in MWC programs. This sucks.
WSU is going to have to cut athletic spending so much that I doubt we’ll have much left beyond basketball and a token football program. They ran at a 11.5million dollar deficit last year. The MWC payouts are ~4m. There’s no way to budget your way out of that hole. It’s fully possible the state is going to have to bail out the athletics department at this rate.
USCLA started everything, and we can’t fully blame everyone else for going where the money is, but it fucking blows to be left out in the cold with 0 options.
I really feel for you guys. ISU fan that really vibed with you guys at the Alamo Bowl, and just generally likes your program. I also thought were going to get left in the wilderness a few years back when the Big XII almost imploded. This all really sucks and I wish the Big XII would give you guys a life raft.
