CUSA Regionalization concept would realign teams in AAC, Conference USA, Sun Belt

Dr. Eric Wood, ED, was burning something but doesn't sound like it was midnight oil.

Of course, he can't undo decades of incompetence that's leading us directly into the FCS.

Stop being dramatic.

[Blue Dawg]

Stop being dramatic.

Being dramatic is my coping mechanism for us getting left behind. Again.

[FriscoDawg]

Tech doesn't have anyone named Woods in athletic administration.

His name is Dr. Wood.

Most news sites list the old Sunbelt TV deal as 100k per school and the "new" Sunbelt TV deal as "more" whatever that means. I doubt "more" is in the realm of 400-500k per school.

The most recent CBS Sports news article on the moves list the C-USA TV deal as 500k per school.

So why would a C-USA school take less money for a TV deal moving to the Sunbelt?

Look we are all fighting for leftovers. The G5 are screwed now. My guess is the NCAA will meet soon and further screw the G5 by expanding the playoffs to more P5 schools only.

You being mad at us for trying to make a name for ourselves is dumb. It is time to think about what works best for G5s going forward and fighting over drama from Precious many moons ago is stupid. What I said still stands. You coming over here just proves how badly Lafayette NEEDS Tech. Y'all have to have someone to hate and it ain't Marshall or Troy or Texas State or even the 10 ULM fans in Monroe.

You linked to a article from 2018 that talks about a deal that has already been renegotiated twice. I have been told personally by people employed at UL that the deal is is 1.4 million, but if you don’t believe me here’s an article that also says 1.4 million:

So no. C-USA schools aren’t going to go to the Sun Belt and make less money on media rights. They are also going to save money on travel costs.

And yeah, let me tell ya… we’re really hurting because we can’t play you in Football. Our budget has never been higher ($36 million vs your $23 million,) our conference has never been better, we’ve never had more success in football, half of our games will be on national TV, we finished #15 in the nation last year, we secured funding for a $60 million stadium renovation to go with the $20 million athletic performance center (and none of it came from FEMA.) I really don’t know how we can survive not being in a conference with y’all.

Y'all only ended up that high because last season was mostly a mess and you lucked out playing an OOC game against a good team that plays god awful in September.

It’s sad but true. Right now the best thing that Tech can hope for is to kiss and make up even kiss some ULM & ULL ass and anyone else in the Sunbelt that wants a sweet smack on their fleshy rear cheeks to pull us out of the incompetent shit pile we’ve created for ourselves.

Tech is the justified victim of their own arrogance and stupidity. If you thought Holtz as a terrible was Tech’s biggest concern you need to looker a lot deeper into the pit. There’s an inevitable darkness there that is beyond imagining.

I think there’s been one collegiate death sentence for excessive cheating (SMU). Now Tech faces something almost as bad for its horrible hires, failed leadership and a total lack of vision.

Many of thse schools don't make sense as additions unless there is a coalition

Your posts don't make sense as there is NO UL in the state of Louisiana. Why are you people so dishonest and dense?

La Tech athletics is on the verge of extinction, as it had been known, and all you are worried about is the name game that has already been won by Louisiana and officially recognized by virtually everyone other than a select number of Ruston fans who refuse to pull their head out of their ass.

SW LA has a decent season and he thinks he can come here and talk trash.

Not talking trash, just stating a fact.
