Best they could do with the situation given WSU was gonna leave if not immediately, then as soon as an offer they really liked presented itself. Obviously they thought the AAC was good enough, and it is a definite plus move, but still certainly not as advantageous as what Creighton was able to accomplish.
The Valley has always been reactive and not proactive. They have known for two years that WSU was looking to leave and it looks like they still weren't prepared.
