Exciting news Lakes but I remain skeptical. They seem pretty positive though. I like the Big Mountain.

Without Boise State, San Diego State, and others dominating headlines and standings, programs like Wyoming, New Mexico, Utah State, and Nevada now have real shots to rise and contend for conference titles. The playing field levels out—and that creates excitement and unpredictability.
The conference now has the opportunity to grow deliberately. Schools like Montana, Montana State, North Dakota State, or UC Davis could bring strong fan bases, football tradition, and geography-friendly options for future membership, helping create a fresh and competitive conference landscape.
A tighter, smarter, more cohesive league is emerging—and if these schools embrace their new leadership roles, the MWC won’t just survive.
