I guess there would be some appeal if you told me Cal football would be a powerhouse in the Mountain West, like a mid 2000’s Boise state but once 80 percent of the athletic departments funding disappears I suspect we’d find equilibrium as an average to below average MWC conference team trying to scratch out six or seven wins so we can play in the New Mexico Bowl and call our season a success.
As an alum and a fan that has zero appeal to me, none.
You want Cal athletics to die and then join MWC?

We wouldn’t be a powerhouse in the Mountain West, though. Everything takes a hit.
No, I was pointing to your word choice of "then"
