If we can't find four out of the 125 FCS teams to move up then CUSA will disband. We lose out on the 33+ million exit fees, we would no longer receive the 1.4-2+ million playoffs distribution and we would be at the mercy of other schools to schedule us.
I appreciate how you say "everyone here is clueless" but you had no idea that Hawaii is in a conference (and have been for some time) or that Idaho isn't even an FBS school anymore. Buy yeah, everyone else is clueless.
I actually do know more. I actually know about these teams and will research them before spouting out “they would be a great add for CUSA!” Last year, we talked about going Independent and your rebuttals were, “these teams suck and the current CUSA schools are names”. Now, you’re “Sam Houston and Jacksonville would be good additions”. So suddenly playing those teams are acceptable and missing games with the names like “Old Dominion and Southern Miss” is no big deal. Since CUSA is “rumored” to add Tarleton St and Liberty. Who I suggested we play last year.
He also had UMass as a full member and his suggestions for downtown El Paso are something a child or very delusional person would think of.
You have no idea what internal discussions those teams are having. Googling their stadium size doesn't make you an expert.
Look dude, it’s this simple. If you’re running a business with 14 employees and then 6 leave all of a sudden, when probably only expected 2 or 4 to leave, that’s not good. You’re down to 8 employees. You should probably hire somebody ASAP. Then another one leaves. Still don’t hire someone. Then another. No hiring done. Then another one. Still haven’t hired 1 to replace any of the initial 6. You kinda have to start to worry about your company’s outlook or business acumen.
Not really the same as employee's leaving. I get the logic but in this case, they gave their notice and gotta stick around for over a year and a half before they leave. They also gotta fork over some wages on the way out.
If your business would make 30+ million dollars if it could hire 4 employees would you try to do it? Nevermind I know you would just throw in the towel and say oh well. I would post on Craigslist, interview homeless people on the streets and do whatever I have to do to keep the business open and collect the money.
I wouldn’t be going a month without adding someone. No reason why NMSU shouldn’t have been added the next day after the 6 left. Again, there’s a reason why they haven’t and it’s not because “they don’t have an offer”.
Yes, not exactly the same, as most people don’t put in a 88 week notices. Point is, the longer you go without “hiring” someone, the more incompetent and stupid you look.
Lol it has been 10 days since the 6 left and a couple of days since the other 3 left, not a month. You're right there's a reason. First we were waiting on Marshall and ODU and now we're waiting on WKU/MTSU. Once all the dust settles CUSA will pick which geographic region works best for everyone interested.
You’re right. When the media reported the 6 were leaving, Senter and Judy, were all, “this is fake news, we will wait until it’s officially announced. No need to start replacing them now.”
Media reported it the day this thread was created on 10/18 and it was confirmed 3 days later.
I knew. god told me. Prove me wrong.
Looks like at least the writer is anxious for an invite to cusa for nmsu.
If someone at cusa got ahold of incriminating info out of espn, it could be worth a ton of money. Perhaps a few emails, voicemails, etc. directing the demise of cusa.
Assuming it's down to us 3, imo this is the perfect time for FCS schools to move up. They'll be in a conference with four FCS calls up and 3 historically bad FBS programs. LT seems to be trending down a bit too. Any of those four FCS teams can step in and start winning conference titles from day one.
That’s not true at all. Price had some from Florida and I’m not referring to Lorne Sam. Kugler recruited the east coast and had one recruit from Wisconsin. Dimel recruits southeast JUCO’s.
Thank you.. Basically the same shit we all knew last week.
Groves is saying NMSU and several others might join CUSA as football only. Not sure the conference could last as football only unless they add a bunch of schools that would join just for olympic sports. If that's the case, it would almost be better for UTEP to try and get in the WAC for Olymics as well, and then both NMSU and UTEP join completely when they make the FBS move.
Makes no sense for CUSA to add football only schools. I think it's an editing mistake. Plus supposedly UCONN already said no. Other than the WKU/MTSU to MAC info how reliable is Brett's article?
This isn’t official. All CUSA needs to do is this:
Congrats on making a dumber post than Fili...
He actually means it and thinks it’s a good idea. This was a joke.
