Not sure if any current FBS level teams join CUSA to replace those leaving. I'd see Liberty maybe in the SB as they're clearly still the dominate league of who's left over CUSA. I only see CUSA back filling w/ FCS teams looking to move up.

...unless C-USA VASTLY improves their media deal, I just don't see how they attract ANYone, save for some FCS teams (A-SUN, perhaps?) just wanting to start up in FBS...

I have mixed feeling about CUSA dissolving all together.

It really is crazy considering where we started 25 years ago. It didn't have to be this way for CUSA. Stubbornness and arrogance will ultimately be what brings this league down.

I agree with both of you. What a shame.

I only want to see CUSA dissolve if all of our conference mates find a good home. Imagine if all of this would have happened 7 years ago? It's doubtful we would have ever fully recovered the way we did. CUSA threw us a lifeline and we capitalized. I'm hoping CUSA can do enough to convince JMU and Liberty to come aboard, and pretty much keep everything intact.
