Good to know Judy is on top of it. Heard she loading up her electric Jeep to go visit with each AD.

RE: C-USA issues statement on realignment
Sorry guys. Man if we get gutted I want Marshall southern miss and honestly I don’t get it with uab honestly I don’t. Those would be my desires plus app Boise and army or Colorado st. I started following ecu when I went there in 2011 and graduated in 2013. To be honest learning about ECU history and heritage, we have the strongest history with Marshall southern miss and to some extent app st., but even with WVU so all mountaineers i guess.

I feel like your commissioner is not not the leader that you two institutions deserve. I really like Aresco, he is a wartime commissioner I feel. Anyway, if we need to raid you it would be something I can still be proud of because I am proud of ECU heritage and would welcome USM and Marshall. Or invite southern miss and Marshall plus big 12 left overs. You deserve the life raft that is the AAC. I stil believe it is you hate me for being a fan of ecu but I don’t know slot of the other schools since we left but my wish for all of your institutions is for a new commissioner however it plays out.

Just having trouble focusing on stuff thought I would share something. To me this is all scary but in the end I have to believe that the slices of the pie will grow and we all benefit.

I guess I don’t know Judy how she performs as a commissioner I will do more research. Maybe her card is to poach ecu. I don’t know guys

If you guys get gutted then you can kiss poaching any MWC teams goodbye. From the rumors I am seeing, the Big 12 seems to be focusing on filling with AAC and maybe BYU. That strengthens MWC's position among the group of five, doubt any of their programs would see the AAC as an upward move.

Both Arkansas and Nebraska, who come from small states, should seriously consider leaving their current conference and joining the NEW Big 12. Either that, or neither program ever wins a conference title again. They just don't have the recruiting grounds to compete. Maybe OU and UT joining the SEC helps Arkansas' recruiting.

The best action she can take now is to stay close to Aresco, attempt to merge C-USA with the AAC remnants, and then reassign teams into a southeastern and southwestern alignment under the two conference entities.

If she can pull this off, me might also be attractive to Sunbelt programs like Louisiana in the west and Appalachian State in the East.

The replies to the C-USA tweet are gold. Seems like everyone but the people who matter are ready for a vote of no-confidence.

Those were a bit funnier than the Facebook ones, but equally inline. I don't know how all of our collective schools haven't heard the messages at this point? Has anyone point blank asked their AD's and got any feedback? Or are we all just completely clueless and she's quietly doing awesome?
