Nevada craps on the WAC, Fresno State say no raisins for you Wac-ateers

Uh, make that the WAC seems in need of some super glue as Nevada and Fresno State have accepted the siren call of the Mountain West Conference. Can we at least get a draft pick plus a player to be named later?

For the uber-literal, the headline is a gaming reference, followed by a Seinfeld one.

The Reno Gazette-Journal is reporting that the Wolf Pack has bid adieu -- go here. The RGJ also says that Nevada didn't sign any financial death penalty departure clause, one created after Boise State departed -- go here.

The Fresno Bee is reporting that FSU is also putting the WAC in its rearview mirror -- go here and here. Nothing in print yet about the $5 million buyout clause.

Don't you guys owe someone $5 million dollars? Mr. McCarthy is ours. Step off.

Thank you for the kind words. As my better half (and the scale) says, there's more than enough of me to go around.

It sounds like were going Hatfield and McCoy here.

Good Seinfeld reference Anon.

C'mon Kevin...help us out over at the MWC...share a square so to speak.

Or how about: come write about the teams in the MWC. They're real, and they're spectacular!
