Answering our own question (hopefully correctly) this is the college lineup in the WAC come the 2012-13 year:

* Denver (non-football)
* Idaho
* Louisiana Tech (then to Conference USA)
* New Mexico State
* San Jose State University (then to the Mountain West Conference)
* Seattle (non-football)
* Texas San Antonio (then to Conference USA)
* Texas State (then to the Sun Belt Conference)
* Utah State (then to the Mountain West Conference)
* UT-Arlington (then to the Sun Belt Conference)

Do let PTW know if any of the above is askew or missing someone.

Nevada will be missed big time and also the 'new' Fresno State basketball program. Hawaii too.
