Kennesaw State to Big South (football only)
Hey, it's DI realignment news.

http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/kennesaw-...all/nZkfN/


Kennesaw State has accepted an invitation to join the Big South Conference, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.

The Owls are joining as a football-only associate member for the 2015 season, the first year they will play the sport.

Kennesaw State will remain in the Atlantic Sun, which doesn’t offer football, for other sports.

A few years in the Big South, they will be ready to move to FBS.

Then, they can join Rice, Temple and FAU in a conference

This guarantees that they'll be on Alabama's schedule by the end of the decade.

I miss the Hooter.

Will the Big South look at a non-football school to get back to 12 members for all sports, or will another Big South member be leaving?

Good news for A-Sun. The conference and several schools were sweating the possibility that Kennesaw would be invited for all sports.

Right now the only non-conference game we have for 2016 is Michigan State. I think we have a match!

Play it in the Georgia Dome… it's pretty much become Bama's second home anyway.

Party over here! Hopefully Kennesaw State can build a winning program and add some exposure and prestige to a conference that desperately needs it.
