The only other options would be the WAC, a major step down even farther than the WCC and the Big Sky. The good thing about the Big Sky is it would be a regular auto-bid each season should they ever choose that.

In basketball, the Big Sky as a conference has never had a higher RPI than the WAC. I just don’t see how the WAC is a step down from the Big Sky. This season, the WCC is #13 in conference RPI ranking and the WAC is #14. The WAC is better than you think.

Look at the teams in the WAC and the instability. If not for NMSU and Utah Valley, look out. This is also an example of why you don't add members to conferences just for the sake of adding. Aside from Chicago State and to a lesser extent UMKC, the WAC has no deadweight. Imagine if they had even another Portland State or Northern Arizona. The conference RPI would be even better.
