And sometimes the complete certainty comments that a league would not include or affiliate with a specific team due to academics when in some instances they already do needs to be called out.
For the most part money talks and the PAC wouldn't even be allowed to be a wrestling conference if they didn't bring in teams like Boise and Cal St Bakersfield (another thing people say the PAC would never invite a "state" school) allow them to be a conference and have a conference tournament with auto qualifiers to the NCAA tournament which is associated with money and an opportunity for them to further expand their "conference of champions" moniker.
Academic fit now days is usually a very flimsy construct in these decisions.
