Slightly off topic, but it won't surprise me if Hawaii was lukewarm about Washington State and Oregon State putting their other sports in the BW, which is why they're going to the WCC for the next two years. As I told you before, I believe UH's mindset is that until they leave, they don't want anyone else from outside California coming in. Just a hunch .
A shame that an opportunity to strengthen your current league was lost. OSU and WSU would have added an at-large bid across all sports.
