That makes entirely too much sense.

: As BWC teams get better this year forward, we
: need to get the other western non-BCS
: schools in the WAC, MWC, WCC, BWC and BSC to
: work on putting together some type of
: committed pre-season schedule to play each
: other to 1) raise fan interest and 2) to
: contain costs. All it takes is scheduling
: just two teams in each ocnference every year
: home and home. This allows enough
: flexibility to schedule the Duke's of the
: world and make some real money.
:
: For exapmple every conference team would
: commit to play two other teams from the
: other conferences, for a total of 8 games.
: One game would work too. And if they wanted
: to rank the teams in each conference to pit
: power against power, then it would be even
: better and be better from a fan viewpoint.

: We should have home-and-home series in
: effect
: with at least few of the following every
: season:
:
: USD
: SDSU
: Pepperdine
: LMU
: Fresno
: USF
: St. Mary's
: Nevada
: UNLV
: Northern AZ
:
: Add in 2-3 road games (and the occasional
: home game) every year vs. ranked schools and
: we'll have an attractive, challenging
: schedule.
:
: Plus, how about adding an Iowa school (U. of
: Iowa, Iowa State, Drake, Northern Iowa) to
: the home schedule every so often...some of
: the older folks in town might be alums.

: We need to get more folks to come to the
: Pyramid. An obvious schedule add is San
: Diego University. Both of our programs are
: on somewhat similar footing at this point.
: Both are on the rise and have enough talent
: to compete with each other.
:
: I hope (and expect that we are) pursuing a
: home/home (alternating years like with LMU
: and Pepperdine) schedule with SD. It's near
: by so it won't cost either school a fortune
: to make the trip. And we'd both get some
: decent competition that might help both
: schools prepare for league play.
:
: Saint Mary's would be another one worth
: adding, but I'm not sure it would be as easy
: to add them as SD (remember the Gonzaga
: connection of both coaches).
