I prefer Mike Leach over Huggins. Both are complete pricks, but Leach is so much more laize fair about it.
AAC Expansion

Is El Paso really a part of Texas anymore or just an annexation of Mexico?
They should go for North Dakota State, they are better than a lot of division 1 teams
I really think the American should have went after ND State instead of Rice.
Now we have to talk about Lamar in football too lol
The sunbelt is still talking to Marshall, ODU and taking to James Madison about making the leap to FBS. Apparently they are further along in talks with ODU and JMU than they are with Marshall. Marshall would make sense for them for Marshall’s sake
We did “go for” Boise and CSU. They said no. Made the best out of a bad situation in the end.
This is all OU and Texas’s fault . I will be cheering for the cowboys in bedlam this year
I didn’t see that. Well that sucks. They would have made great pick ups in football and basketball
Fun fact, the biggest city in North Dakota is barely bigger and Norman, and 1/3 of it is actually in Minnesota, not even North Dakota. It would be an act of profound cruelty to force our athletes to go there regularly. Especially those who play spring, winter or fall sports.
Oh in that case I don't care. My apologies tulsarising for missing your point. It was quite the blast from the past this week when I read a quote from Judy in a story about the destruction of CUSA. I hadn't thought about her in years. At least Aresco failed somewhat less spectacularly than she did.

I do like the way NDSU plays though, I would really like to have their coach
He went 6-5 and 7-4 didn’t he ? Not that impressive , but I don’t think NDSU was that good like they are today, that was a little bit before my time though

Morton’s daughter was in my 9th-grade history class. When TU got smoked, everyone made sure to remind her of it lol. I won’t comment on my level of participation.
We are all sure you were the one who started it. Lol
I went to a Valparaiso game this weekend, it was the size of a middle of the road High School stadium in Oklahoma but a fun atmosphere with great fans. I found myself thinking, Tulsa has just about as much actual attendance as Valpo....
This is just icing on the cake for what has been happening at the University of Tulsa recently. You need top of the line facilities and butts in the seats... Tulsa was never going to have enough of either to earn a seat at the table.

So realignment has crossed my mind today along with other things. Right now we dont have divisions and everything is straight up and down. With Adding these 6 teams, do we go to two divisions of 7 teams? If so, this is what my mind came up with
Football
East
Florida Atlantic
Charlotte
East Carolina
Temple
South Florida
Memphis
UAB
West
North Texas
UTSA
Rice
SMU
Tulsa
Navy
Tulane
Basketball
East
Florida Atlantic
Charlotte
East Carolina
Temple
South Florida
Memphis
UAB
West
North Texas
UTSA
Rice
SMU
Tulsa
Wichita St.
Tulane
With Navy and Wichita State not full members they get what spot needs filled so I put them both in the west.

What do you think
ND State might be loaded with non-qualifiers. Remember how Troy State had great football with non-qualifiers then went D-1 and their football is barely average.
It would be interesting to know what Memphis prefers. Probably more of their traditional opponents in the East.
Those were the teams I flipped to get to here. My only reason for why I did this is if you are not a full member you get what area is left over. Navy has been playing against the “west” teams since it’s been in the American. Just keeping it that way.
Understood. Just thinking that it helps someone like Temple to have another northeastern opponent.
Navy has specifically requested to be in the same division with us, Tulane, SMU and Rice.
