You all do realize CUSA may have it's own Baylor, right? It an evangelical university "in partnership with the Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia"Liberty is the pretty mistress with baggage. Been around the block.
I get it. Don’t get me wrong. I’d be “more” ok with it if I could pick and choose also. But other than in our minds, that just isn’t the reality.
Competitive only because of how bad we all are. All of our programs will take a major dive, talent wise. There’s not a recruit alive that will give teams in this conference a second look, unless they have no other choice
Not really. TV deal will likely be for less money and without division play, travel costs are higher. The league could be somewhat “better”, but I don’t think the money will, and that’s what really matters.
Funny how people talk about the “15,000 attendance rule” but are okay with admitting SHSU who is lucky to get 8,000 in a 14,000 seat stadium. I guess we’ll just let all standards go so we can be the conference people schedule for homecoming games.
You're the one that said an article was full of shit cuz the writer brought up that rule. Keep that same energy. No gives a damn about other team's attendance but losers. (Your words) Focus on our attendance problems and why we only drew 10k for a MW school.
It is full of shit and SHSU going to FBS is proof. I don’t remember saying that and if I did, just because I bring it up in a factual manner, doesn’t mean I “care” about their attendance. I “care” if UTEP wins or loses.
It’s very unlikely most teams move in time for 22-23. If you read Marshall’s, USM’s, and ODU’s releases on joining the Belt, they say “no later than July 1, 2023.” Which means they could leave after this year, but not for sure. The 6 AAC teams are not joining until 2023. I really doubt the new CUSA teams join next season either. UT and OU, remains to be seen when they actually move.
Hopefully they stay. Better than inviting two more FCS schools. Hoops would be a pretty solid league.
Matt Brown just said on KROD, that it’s the other way around. Some MAC schools are having second thoughts about travel costs.
This makes more sense, although I can't see flying into Nashville and a divisional model for Olympic sports being that costly.
They mostly bus already. Adding MTSU means they would have to fly into Nashville and then rent a charter bus(s) to get to WKU or MTSU.
Oso, you old GOP loving fart. You put some questionable stuff on here every now and then and I don't take swipes.
pay up or stay indy. 30 schools have shown interest .
The Baptists might have that rep but I know the Mormons certainly do too.
You let one school not pay and then the others wont want to pay. Then if nobody pays then it's not a conference anymore . NMSU needs to pay up stop acting cheap. Everyone pays no freebies.
I agree. Make them demonstrate the commitment up front. Offset cost gradually over time.
Maybe so, but I gotta agree with him on this one. Nothing good for free. Put up or shut up FBS wanna be’s. Show the commitment.
I don't why I just read that in a New York mobster tone of voice ...
