Well the AAC did add the last 5 cusa football champions. You'd think with all the dead weight that La Tech would have some of those.

We think so, too.

Kind of the classic Braves/Marlins thing isn't it? (unfortunately without the 1995 championship).

We were good almost every year but it was always either someone else's big year or we were only "just good." Or suspensions hurt us. No excuses though, we haven't won a title. That sucks.

Yes. The AAC is taking 3 teams that have won CUSA championships. Do you think they selected the strongest 6 football programs? Anything close to that? The 6 most consistently good?

You guys have had a couple of good seasons. You don't have to get insulted that the whole group of 6 hasn't.
I don't care what random message board guys say. I'm thrilled with the AAC. And despite what that dude said, you guys would swap with rice or north Texas in a second. And your viewpoint would be completely different if you were included.

Aresco and the aac opinions matter more than random anonymous message board people.

Numerous schools failed to live up to expectations in basketball and/or football. In fact, some were total disasters.
It's hard to sell a failing product to media and sponsors.

For example, although WKU finished near the top in basketball nearly every year, we never made any noise in the post season. Our football held its own though.

Some schools were total deadweight in basketball and football year after year, and surprisingly, they are typically the ones who blame the commissioner the most for their horrid athletic programs. If they were unsuccessful due to lack of media and exposure, how then did other schools succeed at all during CUSA 3.0? I feel embarrassed for those fans.

Regardless, it appears the SB3 and the AA6 are happy about their future conference affiliations. I'm happy for them. They're doing what they feel is best for their programs. I fear the honeymoon will be over pretty quick for some of them tho once they find out that just changing conferences doesn't miraculously create instant success on the field or court.

Seriously, good post. Ownership and Accountability for the league's shortcomings don't 100% lay at the feet of the commissioner.

The commissioner doesn't hire your coaches, recruit your players, fund your programs, or force your fans to attend the games.

I'm certainly not enamored with the conference situation, but good Lord, take some responsibility.

Stop that bull crap! of course it matters to you because if it didn't you would not be posting about it or on a "fans message board". To say otherwise is just trying to fool others.

In this context...it most likely doesnt matter to FAU but it does to fans. Like I said if it didnt you wouldn't be on a message board trying to convince "fans" it doesnt matter.

What would be different about my viewpoint?

Of course we'd trade with them in a second, didn't I say that earlier in this thread?

It's hard to sell a failing product to media and sponsors.

I don't think anyone is saying their school being bad is because of Judy. The conference as a whole though I can blame her. Not to mention failing products being sold doesn't matter. Western Kentucky, and Lousianna tech are staying in CUSA despite having pretty solid on the field product. Charlotte and Rice are going to the AAC despite having a worse on the field product. It's not fair, but it does show that on the field performance matters less than you imply when selling the product.

Let's take blockbuster. If I was a manager and my store failed during the early 2,000's is it corporate or my fault? Yes, I might be doing worse as a store manager and that led to me going out of business faster than I otherwise would, but saying it was the individual stores fault and not the CEO's would just be silly.

I've already gone over the many, many different reasons I think Judy is a bad manager in detail. Things she is actually responsible for. (And all these people saying she isn't responsible for anything, well why does she get paid more than the president of the United States of America if she in reality does absolutely nothing and the individual schools are responsible for absolutely everything). Whether or not the conference gets rid of her anymore should no longer be my concern. But, I do like a lot of the schools left in CUSA and I hope for your sake you actually get someone that wants a good conference. Not someone who uses the conference to push title 9 ads, instead of promoting the conference. (Not saying promoting title 9 is bad or good, I do think however, the conference money should be used to promote the actual conference).

Not at all. I don't even post much on here. Just tired of the crap from people saying they wouldn't want the AAC. That is bs. All of cusa would have left for the AAC if given the chance. Heck you guys wanted to be in the Mac over cusa..

But yes I don't give a crap what you guys say about us being a market add or whatever. Its your viewpoint but you don't matter . I'll post on here to counter it if crap like this troll thread is posted, but I definitely don't care about what randoms think. Aresco and the aac matter more

Nope. As a fan of ODU, SB > AAC.

With the exception a few basketball matchups and ECU, it’s more of the same. I understand why you as an FAU fan would be excited and others but for me, no. I’d much rather play in SB East as opposed to AAC East.

Glad you are happy. Been there done that for me. Don't want to go back

I'm not going to argue which league is best or made the best moves. We've all seen those threads spiral out of control. Your post did make me wonder about where all our division title holders in CUSA 3.0 faired in this shuffle.

Since CUSA 3.0 (2014 - present), these are Division Champion Totals

Out of 16 Division Titles in 8 years
WKU - 3
UAB - 3
LaTech - 2
FAU - 2
Marshall - 2
USM - 1
UTSA - 1
UNT - 1
MTSU - 1

AAC - is taking 7 of 16 Division Titles
CUSA - is keeping 6 of 16 Division Titles
SBC - is taking 3 of 16 Division Titles

But hey they wanted markets and they got them. I think we're in good shape because some of the better programs were the ones left behind. I like the idea of a smaller conference that is strong in both football and basketball. It really helps that a Liberty was available to add.
Well the AAC did add the last 5 cusa football champions. You'd think with all the dead weight that La Tech would have some of those.

I'm not going to argue which league is best or made the best moves. We've all seen those threads spiral out of control. Your post did make me wonder about where all our division title holders in CUSA 3.0 faired in this shuffle.

Since CUSA 3.0 (2014 - present), these are Division Champion Totals

Out of 16 Division Titles in 8 years
WKU - 3
UAB - 3
LaTech - 2
FAU - 2
Marshall - 2
USM - 1
UTSA - 1
UNT - 1
MTSU - 1

AAC - is taking 7 of 16 Division Titles
CUSA - is keeping 6 of 16 Division Titles
SBC - is taking 3 of 16 Division Titles
And the champions are

5 AAC

2 Cusa

1 Sun Belt

That's almost one per school!

AAC taking all the powerhouses! Clearly the priority there was on-field results and on-field results only.

Yes, that had already been stated numerous times. I was merely adding an element.

If you're nice he'll mention it again.

The remaining 5 cusa schools have 2 titles. That's nearly a half championship per school ! Clearly the AAC should have gone for them instead

RE: Welcome to SBC and C-USA compared to AAC
I hope y'all watch us play on TV! Let's see SB picks up three from the low hanging vines but they improved?, as bad as Charlotte is supposed to be billionaires & experts said they are part of the solution, the MAC is a two time reject, the B12 was forced to add and they should be ashamed of themselves for dragging their feet, the MW stayed the same, the CUSA is in a position to develop a powerhouse and the AAC has population growth and growth potential on their side.

Well, I don't see how it would have been bad to pursue the other good football programs. Either divisional or conference winners.

That would require confidence and self esteem that they don't have. AAC people won't be on the Sunbelt board

Heck, it's not just the SB3. There's one SBC fan (not from a SB3 school) who has posted on this board over 300 times since October. That's about 1/3 of all his saintly posts.
