The WAC not sponsoring football in 2013 shouldn't come as a surprise to many if anyone, nor should Aggie football playing independently in 2013.
League commissioner Jeff Hurd essentially said such last month at the WAC media conference, and confirmed it once again this week.
For the Aggies, it's not a train wreck waiting to happen, it's a train wreck that's happened.
To a certain degree, it seems like an act of fate, the perfect storm at the worst possible time for the athletics department.
A lousy geographic location as it pertains to conference realignment, in a small market, sandwiched between two rivals โ New Mexico and UTEP โ that really haven't helped NMSU's cause in the conference chase.
Sadly enough, NMSU hasn't been horrible on the playing field โ quite the opposite, actually.
