Why the continued coverage of Hawaii, Fresno State and Nevada?

PTW received a note the other day questioning our continued coverage of Hawaii, Fresno State and Nevada, castigating them as traitors.

After thinking about the subject for a couple of days, we just wrote back.

The trio are WAC members for one more basketball season so their recruiting and personnel moves are still important to follow -- for another year.

Then, following each will go the way of PTW's Boise State coverage.

It's critical to note that each remaining WAC school would also jump at any opportunity perceived to be a better fit -- we see no level of morality at play in this particular equation. Conferences are relationships of convenience and business, period, whether we wish it to be so or not.

Nevada fans will miss your commentary and insight Kevin when the time comes that you no longer cover us. You've made following WAC basketball much easier for everyone to follow.
