Yeahhhh...about that.
I've seen other reports floating around saying similar things, but seems
VERY unlikely this is the guy to break the news. Still believe JMU is too smart to turn down a FBS invite. I know they had, and still have, different aspirations for FBS football but you have to get your foot in the door because it's clear that the nBE and C-USA are not plucking schools from the FCS-level.

Didn't CUSA pluck Old Dominion recently?

Not only has C-USA added several schools from FCS, C-USA even added a school from Division Non-Existent (Charlotte). Those guys haven't even snapped a ball yet.
Anyways, congrats to James Madison who I believe is the best add that the Sun-Belt has made thus far.

Probably so, but your WKU streamer is looking better and better. Noticed the CUSA. The WKU over the players chest makes it a little blurry.

Being from Miami of Ohio would imagine any team the SB added from up that way would receive similar accolades from you. Just wonder what Delaware is thinking right now.

I fail at GIMP. Even my players suck. Extracting them from background is a PITA.

@MarkRSelig
From what we're hearing, JMU has nearly ZERO interest in the Sun Belt and doesn't plan to make any decisions until report is done in Sept.
JMU Basketball writer.
Enjoy waiting too long and missing the boat.
Sounds as if we are hearing all sorts of things, mainly SB desirable. Guess we will know soon.
89- think your players actually look pretty good.
I have been surprised by how little Lamar has been mentioned in this latest round of expansion. I would LU would be ahead of liberty if JMU does not accept. Lamar has been talking to the Sunbelt afterall and is a former Sunbelt member. I would think ULL and TxSt would be even pushing for an LU invite.

ASU, ULL, ULM, and Texas State are blocking any and all Southland Schools. Even Lamar.

I will say this one final time! Louisiana, ULM, stAte and Texas State will block every SLC schools attempt to get into the Sun Belt.

Why would they stop it. Why wouldn't they want a school in their footprint. ULL and Lamar are traditional rivals. Also, TxSt would want to promote schools within their own school system cause it only helps the school system. IE SHSU and Lamar.

Am surprised you would be thinking that way unless you have not been on this board much.
When you say LU, take it you mean Lamar U. and not Liberty U.
