Never heard the phrase "FRONT TOWARDS ENEMY".

Good grief.

That letter is just one great big waving white flag. It should've never made it to the public to see.

The most pathetic thing I have ever seen in sports. The consulting firm for this is laughing all the way to the bank.

RE: FULL SURRENDER
I'm very confused by your reactions to this. What makes this pathetic, and how is it a white flag?

No, you're good, and I wasn't addressing any one particular person. I know you're not going after any school or fan. I'm just confused, in general, by everyone's negative reaction to that letter.

It’s pathetic because it says “we don’t and haven’t known what we are doing. We had a chance to go regional before and we didn’t. I offer our conference to you. Take from us what you want and give us, those that you don’t want.”

Could have sent this letter to the Sun Belt 3 years ago and maybe accomplished something.

Where did you get that from? lol

Countless discussions have been had on the countless numbers of realignment threads on this very page about the possibility of taking teams from this conference and one or two other conferences and realigning them in a regional fashion. So why is it so pathetic for C-USA's leadership to try and open up discussion on the same thing?

RE: FULL SURRENDER
Theyve already shown they can’t put together the best selection of schools based on markets, why would anybody trust them with regional realignment.

It’d be UAB and USM getting the shaft again, because we all know damn well we’d be shoved with the Texas schools who we have no chemistry with and fans don’t travel to or from any of those schools to one another.

Because CUSA is in the weakest negotiating position of the 3 leagues and poo pooed doing this idea with the Sun Belt for years when they were strong enough to just raid them.

I believe that you could “borrow” an actual white flag from France. They’re very good at the surrender thingy

RE: FULL SURRENDER
Full surrender would be do nothing and wait for the AAC, MW and SB to pick who they want. It most likely still goes down like that.

I mean rightfully no one gave Aresco credit for that attempted B12 raid or the attempted MWC raid. So why would anyone give Judy credit for this, which is just as likely as that Big 12 raid and far less likely than the MWC one?

I'm with you. Looking at the other thread and many are gushing over this new west and east mashup. I guess there's an equal number who see the move as a white flag or sign of weakness, which I didn't see it as such. Doing nothing and exposing your belly and waiting is waving the white flag to me.

RE: FULL SURRENDER
I'm sure the AAC would love a merger with the SEC. Just as much of a chance of that merger as the one Judy is proposing.

I'm not asking to give Judy credit. Simply pointed out that sitting back and waiting to be raided is full surrender.

It’s not anymore pathetic than the AAC trying to pick off AFA and CSU. Any reasonable person knew that wasn’t going anywhere.

I also highly doubt any AAC school would agree to this
