RCS: Is there any movement to alter or tweak the existing formula, which has been in place since 2004?

BH: There has not been any discussions at all about changing the formula. That topic has not been discussed nor would I expect that it'd come up (at the next meeting). It's not a factor.

RCS: What about changing the eligibility requirements for automatic qualifiers. Both the Big East and the ACC will have guaranteed slots through the 2013 season, what about the Mountain West or the WAC, given their recent performances?

BH: There has not been any push for a change on that, either. The commissioners meet every April and they review everything. At that time they will consider any changes to the existing structure if necessary, but based on my visits with them from the past several months, there's no groundswells for any change.
