Burkell007 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 But that article is talking about football and non football schools, say these leagues just start splitting off into such conferences then even getting to 12-14 will require poaching a more shuffling. More teams moving up into div 1 are they not? Can fight the inabilible... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pianoknight Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I'm surprised by the Sun Belt, actually. They're also gaining FCS powers Appalachian State and Georgia Southern in a couple years. Coupled with semi-good-and-occasionally-great teams like ULM and Arkansas State, the Sun Belt is becoming a decent mid-major conference. Quote 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

Burmy Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Tulsa joining The Conference Formerly Known as Big East in 2014.So with the rumored "America 12" at 12 in 2015, makes ya wonder who Conference USA will try poaching this time. My guess is Georgia State or Texas State from the Sun Belt (maybe both). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burkell007 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 So does anybody realy think navy is gonna stick around in the "America 12" conference or they leave before 2015 and say oh UMASS get the spot? Great way to piss off your last northeast school(uconn). So how soon do uconn, Cincy and USF leave? And who replaces the teams leaving the CAA & SoCon? What's the rumor on where JMU is going, A-10 I assume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
