Is it just me, or do we always go "somewhere" before "somewhere" comes to Hattiesburg? Seemingly multiple years later, if at all. South Alabama is the only one that comes to Hattiesburg first.

Well, they have big time Jesus money. They might be paying us to play in a 1-1.

2018
@Auburn - $1.7 mil
@Appalachian St (return game from 2013 season in Hattiesburg)
Jackson St (FCS)
UL Monroe (return game from 2017 game in Monroe)
2019
@Alabama - $1.85 mil
@Miss St - $1.2 mil
@Troy (return game from 2016 game in Hattiesburg)
Alcorn St (FCS)
2020
@Auburn - $1.85 mil
South Alabama (1st game of a home and home....2021 at USA)
@Liberty
2021
@South Alabama
2022
Liberty
@Tulane
So with the game at Liberty in 2020 that just about confirms that we will only have 5 homes games in 2019 unless Troy is kind enough to move the 2019 game to 2021 which probably won't work as we are already at USA.

Just off the top of my head - Virginia, Boise State (2nd H/H, not 1st), Texas State, Arkansas State.

2018 and 2019 are set. 2020 is pretty much set. Only ? is which FCS school will fill out the schedule. Probably a SWACtion team.
Last 2 games in 2022 will almost certainly be a money game on the road and an FCS game at home.

So that makes ODU, UNT, UAB, Marshall and USM. Based on this....and the money they and ODU have to spend......they are clearly getting a bid to CUSA. That means USA, Ark St or Texas St are getting a bid for CUSA west.

RE: Home and home just announced...
Our home games OOC from 2018-2022: Jackson State, ULM, Alcorn, South Alabama, Liberty, 3 unknown FCS teams (2020, 2021, 2022), and probably 1 G5er in 2021.
Enjoy the Kentucky game. Because it's the best we'll get until 2024.

Liberty is a full FBS member in 2019. Those games will become conference games before we play them. USA also has home and home games scheduled with La Tech, USM, UNT and UAB. Our USA games could convert to conference games as well, opening up 4 non conference slots on our future schedules.
If/when they join CUSA, they will have the largest athletic budget in the conference.
"The Lynchburg school spent a little more than $45 million on athletics in 2015-2016, the last year for which the Department of Education has numbers. To put this in perspective, that’s more than Boise State, New Mexico and every school in Conference USA, including Old Dominion, spent."

RE: Home and home just announced...
I complain, but honestly this is probably the best we can do, especially if Liberty is giving us some Jesus money to play this game. Memphis, ECU, and Houston will schedule 1-1s with Sun Belt teams but avoid us like the plague. Arkansas State and ULL are probably the same way. Literally no one will play us.

Oh boy! That should get our share of the CUSA tv monies to about $6.20. Of course CUSA will allow Liberty to have their own network as the mormons do so they will get about $50bazzilian from 700 network.

Don't worry, they(and ODU) will only be in CUSA for a short window. They are already leaps and bounds ahead of USM in facilities. Indoor football facility was just completed....and a legit baseball stadium.
