Benson said a 30-to-60 day window has been established with five possible new members — University of Texas-San Antonio, Texas State University, University of Montana, University of Denver and Seattle University.

The hope is that invitations will be established to at least two football-playing schools — currently, Denver and Seattle are non-football entities that will be part of a "separate assessment," according to Benson.

The question for Seattle U becomes whether there are any comparative advantages to waiting for the WCC - which has seemed to be a strong fit for some time - and whether the WCC accelerates their decision making process in response.
