Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it up to individual schools to decide what conference they will be in? Unless the western WAC gets together and decides to vote La. Tech, SMU, Rice, and Tulsa off the island, it ain't happening. I'm all for regionalized conferences, but it's up to the schools as to where they want to be.
