RE: ODU Beat Writer on CUSA Possible Regreats Regarding Liberty

South Alabama fits in with C-USA because Mobile is a large town that fits into the rest of C-USA.
As it is, I do not think C_USA wants to make the same mistake like they did with the last grab for expansion that cost them a bigger tv contract. They need the best schools on the field to be in the conference.
I just said they skipped over them in the past. Again, I'm not going to argue over those schools. The fact is that CUSA interacted with all of them, including campus visits by leadership in some cases, and didn't extend invitations. The reasons had nothing to do with sports. I mean, they did invite FAU, FIU, and Charlotte in spite of the state of their football programs so they are obviously focusing on other things...for better or worse, as I said.
