I Officially Endorse Adding Texas State
Like App State, I have come to the conclusion that I would like Texas State University to become one of the next members of the Sun Belt Conference. I hope to see this move made soon and I hope the rest of you will agree with my stance. 04-cheers

Having Texas State, Ark State and Georgia State would help a little bit with the avoidance of the "directional school conference" stigma.

Texas State has several good qualities. Just like App State I believe they would remain in the Sun Belt a number of years if accepted as a member.

Seems the Alliance (CUSA) doesn't want to consider Texas State or UTSA right now, so there is a good chance they will be available. Should bring good competition to North Texas.

Well if we are getting to monikers, State of Texas politics has a problem with us using TSU. As are result, you will see us referenced as "TXST"

We still have Middle Tennessee State, but for some reason they want to leave out the state. Troy used to be Troy State, and UNT was North Texas State, but they both dropped the "State"

for Troy it was a marketing ploy that seems to have worked. TROY is in my opinion the most marketable name in our Conference.

State works very well when the state name is actually your full name. Florida State, Michigan State, Louisiana State, etc.. It doesn't work as well otherwise (Wayne State). Troy and North Texas made the right choice.

I always thought University of Appalachia would be more impressive for those guys.

Personally speaking, I think that the stAte moniker done like that for ASU is the coolest moniker in the belt. It makes me think of aTm.

Agreed, it looks great on their helmets too.

Looking at your previous recommendation, your endorsement holds little weight.

Louisiana's cayenne pepper. I just think the pepper thing is pretty cool and unique, they really should incorporate it more.

North Texas should go to "Son of Worm" logo. It looks good.

We were without it for ten years or so. That ASU indian head dress was awful. I'm so glad we brought it back. And to think, the only reason it was brought back is because we had to remove all Indian imagery.

It seems the Redwolves mascot has been very popular with the stAte fanbase.

I'm not an anybody guy, and I'm ESPECIALLY not an FCS guy. There are going to be FBS teams left out of this shuffle. At least one is within our current footprint.

If we lose someone, replace them. Teams that would feasibly come to the SBC won't get snatched up by another conference, and maybe something wacky happens and a BETTER program "falls" into our net.

No need to gorge ourselves on FCS teams with horrible MBB when there are recognizable FBS teams that could get left out of the shuffling.

Basically what I'm saying is: We can't get worse... unless we add programs from below.
