Would Charlotte would take the place of UAB to keep the divisions even? Just a thought, probably totally off base on this though

It's been planned at least since the end of McGee's first year...but you won't find anybody on the record saying it.

Charlotte would have made 14. Our demise would leave CUSA with 13 teams

Yes it's been planned. It hasn't been put into action because those on the board enjoy watching UAB struggle. Now that there's some aggressive improvement they're startled and are doing whatever they can to stop it. It's pure cowardice on their part and can not be tolerated. This has happened before as we are all very aware of.

even some in the local media have seen it and are calling people out. Definitely this! Sadistic, power-drunk Cowards, one and all...

Maybe. Mcgoo figured some of this out and left.

That man couldn't figure out if his hair was on fire, no way he left because of this.

They join in 2015, and I'm wondering if that is included in the 13.

They don't join C-USA but, if things go south, we'd be lucky to join them in the A10.

You should probably know what you are talking about before you speak authoritatively about it.

Nevermind, I'm not sure where I got that. Maybe I confused them with Old Dominion.

If McGee was anything, he was an egomaniac. It makes sense now that an outside influence like this would give him the encouragement to get the hell out of dodge.

It's Tuscaloosa bud, that's nowhere near all those pricks are drunk on
