Welcome Hampton, Monmouth, NC A&T and Stony Brook!
I know this may be overshadowed by the news on the West Coast, but a warm and cordial welcome to the Pirates, Hawks, Aggies and Seawolves.

Gonna be a very interesting time in the expanded league.

RE: Welcome Hampton, Monmouth, NC A&T and Stony Brook!
Our conference may not be the perfect marriage of programs, but there's some stability in knowing that one or two defections won't put us on the brink of collapse. Welcome new members and good luck this season (except when playing the Dragons! 03-wink ).

Hopefully the site admins can give y'all some standalone forums, would be nice to foster another active fanbase or two.

After UCLA/USC to B1G, it's really difficult to get excited about this move knowing that those are the realignment decisions that really matter... and that whatever happens will leave us in the dust regardless.

But the CAA is still at least a step up from the America East, which it was embarrassing for us to be in for so long.

RE: Welcome Hampton, Monmouth, NC A&T and Stony Brook!
Excited to join the CAA and to get to know all of you. As a lifetime Long Islander I've been waiting for a long time to see SBU and Hofstra in a closer athletic relationship. I'm also very excited to see rivalries develop with the entire CAA outside of the lacrosse and football relationships we already have. Overall I could not be more thrilled to see this arrangement.

Conference alignment is fluidic. The last 10 years have proven that. I think that the P5 (or P3-4) will break away as a semi-pro league in at least football and MBB and there's not much that outsiders can or should do about it (they're not student athletes, just athletes. Nothing wrong with that, but let's be real about it). When the dust from that shift clears, I think the CAA will be among the best positioned to be a major player in the student-athlete tier of college athletics. I also think that it will continue to expand to power its media contract selling power, and am excited to see who our phase 2 acquisitions will be!

RE: Welcome Hampton, Monmouth, NC A&T and Stony Brook!
My working prediction right now is that we end up with a sort of National College Football League with two conferences of ~24 teams each, NFL-style divisions, and playoffs. The remains of the P5 and G5 will reorganize, and there will be an opportunity for the highest level of FCS to join them. I agree that I think the CAA is currently well-positioned to take advantage of that shift.

Time to update and add the four pages for new comers. Hopefully Monmouth and Hampton fans will make this forum home, as I couldn’t find a dedicated forums for each of those two schools.

What has to happen to get the four new members added here on the CAA page? You would think that would be pretty turnkey.

I don't know. I sent an email to board support, but didn't hear back. Maybe we have to PM the site admin? Or maybe it has to come from one of the CAA admins?

Not sure. I sent a pm last week regarding it and never heard anything. Looks bad to move JMU's board before anything was finalized but not add new members back that are finalized. Even if they are not active boards here currently they should still be added. I imagine more folks from Stony Brook would venture over here from the AEast board if they actually had a board listed here.

Welcome new members. Glad the boards were now added officially. And to nogrethoegre stated, if any poster for the new schools wish to be admins for their schools let a current admin know or let georgia tech swagger know.

For those new folks who don't know how to find admins, click back on CAA Conference Talk and at the top the admins are listed.
