Re: UMass to the MAC

Of our current CAA brethren, I wonder whether Stony Brook would make the most sense to make the jump to FBS. They have over 17K undergrads and a 470M endowment- not overwhelming numbers, but not chump change either. You can see how they might be enticing to CUSA- bringing New York market exposure an...

Re: I’m awake - UD to CUSA

Long article from The Athletic today. Outstanding detail of the last two years in CUSA in regards to realignment and accomplishments! I would suggest this as "required reading" for UD fans. It's a lengthy story--but well worth the read. https://theathletic.com/5165372/2023/12/29/conferenc...

Georgia Southern getting creative with their NIL. G5 schools are going to need to be innovative like this.

Interview with Kevin Tresolini about UD’s move to CUSA. One interesting fact to come out of it- no UD teams will be staying in the CAA.

Re: The end and a beginning

Is there any worry of a UMass experience rather than JMU? [/quote] Not very much. I was an initial FBS denier, but I’m all in now. UMass thought it could go it alone as an independent. Liberty has proven that you need large amounts of disposable cash to pull that off,and even then, you can’t do it ...

Re: 2024 Questions

That’s what JMU did, although they skipped the FCS independent season. It’s fairly rare. Details below:

Re: Game Thread: Lafayette

Got back from the game a little while ago. Section K was full of boisterous Pards fans. They were an excited, respectful bunch. One sitting near me in section L told his father that it felt like a home game. in the first half, it was hard to disagree. Credit to our players for digging deep in the se...

Re: CAA 2-WEEKS REMAINING edit 1-WEEK REMAINING

NC Central’s loss today may absorb another at-large. If Howard beats Morgan St. next week, they would get the autobid and the committee would have to consider whether to give NCC an at-large. That could take one from the MVFC or CAA. The SWAC and MEAC are not eligible for the auto bid because their...
