Good morning, Panther Nation. Trying to extract some feedback from some of the original and new members of Conference USA about the amount of press coverage they get from their local sports media, how would you grade the level of coverage FIU and the conference as a whole gets in your area & why, and if it's unsatisfactory, what's been attempted to have done about it and are there alternative options to the local press for your fan base? Who's been FIU's ally and greatest enemy in this regard? This has been a sticking point with many a UAB Blazers fan in Birmingham, and was wondering was it just an isolated occurrence or is this something that plagues several if not all representatives of Conference USA? Thank you very much for the indulgence, and best of fortune to you this season and next year when FIU becomes full-fledged members of Conference USA.
