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

His dealer must sell the expensive heroine.

I've been around long enough to have lived through Beightol.

Then I lived through Torbush.

I lived through the final few years of the Peace era before we hired Crowton as OC.

I lived through the day in 2004 when we were passed over by CUSA.

I lived through the final days of the Bicknell era.

We'll be back. We may not have our current president or coach but we'll be back.

Our university’s statement on things…

Interestingly, no direct mention of CUSA. Just “League Partners” and “Other Nationally Renowned Universities.”

I wonder what he means to say? As a former player are you encouraged?

[stodgdog]

What a joke. Yes, in a world where any tiny hint of conference movement, even from schools like FIU, is immediately and endlessly dissected online by hundreds of pundits, Tech has somehow managed to keep our super secret successful negotiations super secret.

He could have saved some time and just said "I don't know."

Recently, some posters with inside knowledge or insight were optimistic. Is that gone?

[Bone_afide_Dawg]

I’m not buying it and I’m in Tech’s backyard. If you can’t convince me there’s no hope of convincing someone else.

I understand this but things are gearing up towards a major restructuring to where there will be no mobility possible. I hope I'm wrong and you're right. We may come back to find the door locked and everyone gone

That would make the dealer a pimp.

Sounds like there are still discussions happening. I’d assume those discussions are with USM and Marshall to keep them in the fold.

To me, that statement was probably a copy and paste of their “pitch” to the AAC. The only thing I actually learned is we’re about to build some more stuff.

I wasn’t referencing the Tech statement.

Oh. I hope whatever you heard is actually happening and not empty speak. My point about the statement still stands, though.

Stay in a dying conference or join a conference on the rise? Hope we hired a top notch salesperson.

The problem with the C-USA is UTEP. Literally no one left in the C-USA wants to be in a conference with UTEP.

You have to exit UTEP either through moving, kicking, reforming, or leaving.

I truly believe the G4 or however many are left in the next few years will have their own show, and the rest of us will be basically the new FCS basically in every sport. They will sort out the “riff raff” and keep all the money for themselves
