I guess KSU will be an FCS Indy next season?

EDIT: Yep. Looks that way.

Not too shocking, but I was hoping the wacsun would let us play with you. Hopefully we don't have too much trouble filling out our schedule for next season as an indie.
“This partnership has built competitive opportunities, created a new AQ for the FCS playoffs, and brought a great group of like-minded institutions together to play football,” said ASUN Commissioner Ted Gumbart. “We are planning for a long and strong relationship in this group and it provides certainty and security for our football programs and for the strength of both the WAC and the ASUN in all sports.”

Doesn't sound like the quote of a man retiring. I've been told nothing but I'm totally thinking he'll be named the commissioner of this new football conference.
Why not eight now? Why six?

Already signed contracts I suspect.

We have games with UC, UK, SEMO, WCU and Gardner Webb. We have to move the SEMO game ad we now have UNA on Sep 30 but we both are open the prior week.

Edit.. FBSchedules confirmed 6 conference games do to non-conference contacts.

A little odd how JSU was allowed to play-- but not KSU.

Obviously, these teams can't compete with KSU's huge budget. 03-lmfao

Only TWO home games so far. It won't be easy finding finding another three.

According to current NCAA rules no new single sport conferences are allowed in FBS-- only FCS.

If you want to debate--go ahead-- but it is a fact that exists. Unless the rule is changed--which IS possible in theory.

Nobody wants to debate. Back to your board! Lol.
Congrats on the win over Ole Miss for UNA.

Any day a P5 gets beat (including Alabama, UL, UT, etc.) is a GOOD DAY! ROAR LIONS!

I thought it was no new single sports conferences in Division 1? That is what I found before. I didn't see an FBS/FCS distinction. Possible I missed that but I didn't see that from what I researched.

I thought it had an expiration of July 1 2022?

The item I found on the NCAA site said it was to expire July 1, 2021. No one could find an extension.

The by-law others are saying prevents it is 20.02.6. It seems to show all the sports have to be in the conference. The ASUN WAC response was that discussions with the NCAA that they will support this.
