Biggest losers on the planet? Opposing fans that troll another schools fan board. Bro, you’re pathetic.Quote:

Here’s the sad truth, it doesn’t matter where we go when talking about football. All G5 programs are on the same ship that’s taking on water fast. There was only so many lifeboats, and the big schools took them. You might feel better because you’re in first class accommodations, but that won’t matter when the ship goes under. The gap between the haves and have nots is widening every year, and that chasm has now become so wide that we won’t ever get across it. Before it’s over with, the P5 will consist of only 4 conferences: SEC, ACC, B10 and PAC-12. We or nobody in this state besides LSU will ever be in one of them, because LSU would never allow it.
Man in the mirror
Often when we, and I mean anyone, starts looking for reasons things aren't working out...there is, in large part, your answer.
How many MORE times will Tech get left behind in these conference shakeups before someone looks in the mirror? Yep, eventually, I think the AAC will lose some members and maybe then, Yo, little Tech, we have a vacancy...then too many in Tech Nation will thump their chests and think we got in based on merit. Tech lacks leadership and vision. And, true, we have geographic issues that are beyond our control. But that just means, to be ultimately successful, we have to check other boxes, such that a conference is willing to overlook the market size because we are just too good to pass up.
Anyway, it is NO surprise AAC passed on us, and many folks understand that. Now the Belch has passed on us too...although, I must admit, I honestly don't care about that. Someone turned on the light and I looked down those stairs into the Belch basement, and I'd rather stay here in the kitchen, thankyaverymuch.
All that said, we have issues in Ruston and until/unless we address those we'll continue to see this "abandoned on a desert island" scenario play out again and again.
Sums it up pretty well.Quote:

And we're probably stuck with it for a long time. I mean, heck, one of our best cases at this point would be getting into the 'belt where we'd have them around regularly. *sigh*
As to CUSA, my vote (for what it's worth) would be to do just about the bare minimum to remain in existence for now (we need those sweet sweet buy-outs and maybe even buy-ins if we can get them). If 8 is the minimum, get to 8, ideally with some travel partner situations (NMSU seems to be the only real no-brainer here, if only because they're the ones most likely to say yes right away). FCS start up like SHSU or Missouri State is fine. Maybe EKU. I'm not sure it's a good fit for them or us to try to get the NE schools in. I think UConn and UMass are content to just play each other and barn-storm the rest of the year. If Liberty isn't interested I am ok with that (but any port in a storm, if they want in that's cool too).
I bet they shoot for 10 (and given the fact that any school would leave in a second I understand that) but I'd cap things at 9. It's perfect number for football. But I'd probably rather have 8 than 10 given who we could expect to get.
