We could have done a lot worse. Hope Tulsa and UTEP hang around.

I wouldn't bet on it now and I wouldn't blame them for leaving.

Time for a new map. I would but I have to be to a meeting in 6 minutes.

for the first few years, if this is the case, Marshall better run away with the East division :)

The West.. .that's a crap-shoot between three teams to start with (USM, LaTech, Tulsa).

Welcome FAU. Very much looking forward to these South Florida trips.

Wow, I go to lunch and bam! Welcome Owls!

YAY. more hooters

Didn't Schnellenberger say they have no interest in conference usa and they would only go to the big east? Direct quote: "We're not going to go in Conference USA, I'll tell you that."

Thanks! I'm excited about the move. Looking forward to playing you guys.

Things are far from over. BE isn't done for sure. MWC most likely isn't done. ACC may not be done if the SEC, B1G, or Big XII stick their nose in over there. I think the dominoes are falling too fast and sporadically that we will probably in the end see a completely different landscape across college athletics. It's already happened to some degree, but it is about to get worse.

Did we put Miami on the schedule or would you actually waste your money to see us beat FIU or FAU 49-0 in front of 2,000 people?

Yeah, well he ain't coaching there any more

So MTSU and FAU are being added in 2014?

Schnellenberger has nothing to do with this decision anymore. He's a fundraiser now.

He's retired now and it doesn't seem that he has too much power.

Have we ever seen anything happen as fast as this...wow.

Welcome FAU, looking forward to visiting my parents in South Fla and catching a game.

Don't bother. It'll be wrong in a day or two anyway.

Which market is which between FIU and FAU?
