I feel like there's been some discussions in these realignment threads about fan bases that talk a lot. If you had to make a conference of current G5 teams that talk the most s***, who'd be in there?

Coastal Carolina

I think Georgia Southern has fallen off. But when they are winning look out. But anecdotal evidence points to LaTech and Marshall being even worse. App would get a couple votes. Also Memphis and Liberty

ULL or App

Sounds about right!

Every fan base talks smack when they are up. Some programs are just not accustomed to success so they go overboard.

Probably Louisiana Tech. They talk about everyone, doesn't matter the conference or program.

From never playing LaTech and knowing nothing about them minus Terry Bradshaw & Phil Robertson, they're a fan base that comes across as way too cocky.

Coastal hasn't handled 1 year of success very well either.

Towards Coastal: It's not even close
Liberty (*Honorary G5)
App
ULL

This “1 year of success” line is the lie that has been told enough that it’s become truth in the minds of many.

Our athletic program has had a lot of success, especially in the last 10-20 years.

SBC fans think that because we just busted onto the national stage in FBS football in the last 1.5 years that we’ve never done anything as an athletic program ever.

That couldn’t be farther from the truth. We are pretty accustomed to winning at Coastal.

You have every right to be proud of your FCS accomplishments. But please realize that absolutely no one else cares about FCS success.

ULM has a FCS National Championship. But do you hear them crow about it? Nope. Because it's like wearing your high school letter jacket well into your sophomore year in college.

The FCS championship routinely has less viewers that the lowest rated bowl games.

App State fans on Twitter can be quite much. Some of them believe that App State is bound for the ACC not even the AAC.

Across many sports! I always laugh at the (1 year of success thing) Just say you know absolutely nothing about Coastal or care, without saying it. It's as if, they didn't think FBS recruiting would catch up at some point...I'm wondering if this qualifies as s*** talking lol?

***proves everyone's point***

Coastal fans thinking people care about golf haha

I gotta put these in order only doing the Sunbelt!

The worst

1.App St.( y’all talk some noise, but y’all can back it up.)
2.Georgia Southern ( they talk a lot more if they were better. When they first came in to the Belt they thought they were hot $hit. I think if y’all were top 25 program y’all be talking some noise! I put yall above App St.)
3.CCU ( Thinking they are better then the rest because they are not FCS now, compounded with being a top 25 program.)
4.Troy ( Idk if it’s an inferiority complex, but they have it!)
5.Louisiana ( We wouldn’t be on the list if we weren’t that good, and if our athletic complex wasn’t better then the rest of the Belt! When is the AAC invite? Sorry was that acting like we are better then everyone else. Cough cough )

Middle of the Road

6. ULM ( if they were good they be in the top 5)
7. Arkansas St.
8. Georgia St.
9. Tx St.
10. South Alabama( i feel like USA people are more down to earth then Troy.)
