Serious Conference Realignment Discussion

[HogDawg]

I thinks it’s fine. We either put them in their place and they stop, or they keep going, or we get put in our place and they keep going. A little dislike for another program is not a bad thing.

Yeah, we'll probably put 'em "in their place" the same way we did Old Dominion. . I mean seriously, is there any wonder none of the schools in Virginia respect LA Tech? We're a joke to those people. You pick a sport --any sport-- and Tech has found a way to lose to ODU. It will probably be the same with Liberty. Just more of the same.

This would be huge. If WKU and MTSU stay that means we are at 9.

Yessir. Let's rebuild this thing.

Yessir. Let's rebuild this thing.

Now go get Missouri State.

That’s 10 (perfect for a great Basketball league).

[dawg80]

And WKU just became the new Marshall, some of their fans...the vocal ones...whining about being stuck in CUSA. Eff MTSU! they say.

Well, Pillpoppers, don't let the screen door hit you, "on your way out." Go Indy, azzholes.

[techman05]

What are they so mad about? Moderate and sporadic success. Market? Budget? They are the Blue Grass version of Tech.

Just like with Tech fans, it's always the "vocal" few that get the most attention. We've had good relationships with both Western and MiddleTN, and I am hopeful we continue to do so.

Fear of the "unknown" -- Just like many of our own fans.

They aren't a-holes or arrogant or any of that. They're fans of their school and they want the best for their school. Just like us.

I'm surprised that they didn't (if they really don't) pursue the stability of the MAC. But those two schools do care about basketball and the new CUSA does look to be a good bball league. As a Tech fan, my concern is keeping the number of teams low. Stay at 9 if possible. If they just have to go to 10, fine.

Yeah I think they keep it low, no reason to dilute more than you have to. 9 is great for football. 10 is great for basketball.

Add no more.

Tech will need football money games for the foreseeable future to pay for basketball and baseball. Invest in programs that want to compete, not in ones that fake compete.

Yes, without Holtz,Wood and Guice

There's a board of trustees meeting at Middle Tennessee State today, which has an athletics item on the agenda. This is expected bring some clarity to the MAC exploration of MTSU and Western Kentucky. Middle has been hesitant, and ambiguity has lingered in both MAC and C-USA.

Let's be honest, the "Vocal" ones are the ones with the most say.

I'll take a picture of the vocal people on Saturday. If any decide to show up.

These people aren't loyal, why do we act like they are. Hell I get mad just thinking about all the empty seats that long time fans are going to get pushed out of for baseball season.

These people would've been loyal until the Marshall series then returned for the cusa tournament acting like they were with the team all season.
