C-USA News?
I regularly check out Fox Sports, CBS, and ESPN's websites looking for news and reports about C-USA, but hardly ever find any. It seems the Power 5 conferences get plenty of coverage and even have dedicated blogs, but there isn't much for the fans of C-USA. What a shame. Collectively, this conference has a large population, interested in reading about our programs.

What is the best site for following news and stories about C-USA?

Thanks

The truth?


Each schools local paper that follows said school. Or the CUSA Website. OR, and to be quite honest: THIS BOARD.

That's a real shame. I follow all of those three, but just can't believe there isn't a sports site out there covering this conference with regular reports or updates.

Welcome to CUSA 03-weeping

And don't take that like our future AAC home will be any different.

The story in NC is ACC 24/7/365.

I bet in Texas you have the same although with A&M in the SEC you might actually get 2 Conferences consistently covered.

Thanks. It's still better than the Sun Belt, but I had hoped to see more coverage. In the Dallas/Fort Worth area, everything football related is Cowboys, then Texas, then Oklahoma, Then Texas A&M, then the general BIG 12. After that, your team has to have a major scandal or an act of God to get some news coverage. Even TCU has trouble getting attention in DFW.

We need to make some noise in our OOC games to start creating more interest. Even if they look at us as an aberration, they will still be talking about us. I could not believe the coverage Tech got last year after beating some AQ teams and taking A&M to the wire.

It is frustrating to hear ESPN say they are the "worldwide leader in sports" when to some degree that it totally not true. This thread's point is a testament to that.

Va pilot is up to date with anything cusa and the aac. Harry provides us with great news conferencewise. And during the conference alignment he was a great source of information prior to it hitting the regular news. Harry should write cusa.

Thanks for the help. Maybe a better way to approach this thread is to have everyone post links to sites that are good sources for information about their program.

Here are good sites for information about North Texas Athletics:

The official University of North Texas Athletics site
http://www.meangreensports.com/

The Denton Record Chronicle "Mean Green Blog"
http://meangreenblog.dentonrc.com/?__hst...2276489854

From time to time the local Dallas news channels and newspapers will report about UNT on their sites, but it isn't a daily event. There are sites run by fans too, but I don't know if I'm allowed to list them.

I'm looking forward to seeing where other C-USA fans get their information.

MWC might do better simply because there isn't much else to write about with the exception of the occasional pac. In the central, Norh and south areas, its all about the ACC, B12, B10 or is it 12?

RE: C-USA News?
Basically, each team's fans browse most of their media for information and when there is a relevant article it usually ends up here and creates a nice discussion or at least a flame war. This site is the best place to find information about teams other than your own. Usually some people who know more or at least claim to know more will add some detail the article didn't, giving the readers more in depth knowledge than a CUSA specific media source would anyway.
