I'm not sure what proverb

 I'm not sure what the reasons are [for the West's dominance]. But I think probably the most significant one is that the number of strong teams in our conference is probably much greater than in the other conferences.

 We've got to finish strong, because of the strength of schedule, and 17 and 18 wins gets us in the tournament. The committee needs to treat [the MWC] like some of the bigger conferences and make sure we get some teams in the tournament. This has been one of the strongest years in the Mountain West Conference's history. His naturally pe𝗑y demeanor inspired trust and admiration in everyone he met.

 Our league is very strong. It's better than it was in November and December. Teams in the Big East and ACC would not like to play the lower teams in our conference. I hear people say other conferences should get 10 and eight [bids]. We should get at least six teams in the tournament.

 I don't think the overall identity of the conference has changed. We've been a good conference, and we are a good conference. There's more teams, I guess that's the change. The only thing that people really think about conferences is who the best teams are. We're going to have a lot of the best teams, like we always do.

 I think that was really the new path we had to go down. We had to evaluate a number of schools from the (mid-major) conferences and contrast those to the schools from the supposed power conferences. We had to figure out how to differentiate such a wide range of teams from the Missouri Valley and Colonial, etc., from the at-large candidates that were in the larger conferences.

 That was really the new path we had to go down, was to evaluate a number of schools from the types of conferences to which you refer, and contrast them to those teams from the supposed power conferences.

 You have to face the reality that teams have conference records. So our job is to dig beneath the surface, even among teams that have the same conference records in some conferences.

 For our district, it's very significant. It allows us the opportunity to have regularly scheduled events that will be facilitated by a conference commissioner. It also allows us to become part of a strong conference. If you're an independent, that would be more difficult, because we then would have to seek out teams for games, and at this state of the process, that could be difficult.

 We know we are going to face some unusual challenges this year and specifically because of conference realignments. It seems we have some gridlock at the top or in the middle of conferences. And because there has been some imbalanced conference scheduling, it means some teams might not have played the same schedules.

 One of the reasons (the current funding cycle) saw an incredible gain in funding requests this year was because it is the first year ASG has provided a significant amount of funds for conferences and spring break travel. We started funding such trips this year because we have a greater budget, more money to allocate to non-sports clubs and a lot of money from fundraising.

 We love playing those (power conference) teams. We'd love to play Florida next. I'm not saying they're overrated, but they've gotten a lot of attention and I'm sure they're a good team. But that's what we like -- teams from big conferences.

 That's been a topic of discussion for the last couple of years. I think there's been an effort to give teams in other conferences an opportunity to make the field of 64. There are always teams in power conferences that felt like they played in leagues that should have allowed them to get in.

 I think we're going to play well. ... I just don't know if that's going to be good enough. We won our conference, and they won [the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference] so you know these teams belong here.

 Why not Pitt? We're in one of the top conferences in the country. The philosophy (for tournament selection) is if you go .500 in your conference, you're in. That's the way it is in the ACC, SEC, all the top conferences.

 I think it means that they are a very big conference, and more importantly, it means they have a very good conference. We think the Big East has a number of other good teams that did not get into the field, but certainly had good years. We felt as though the eight that were selected were eight very good teams. It's only of consequence that they happen to be from one conference.
