Okay UAB is making it tough on us to kick them out of the league. So shall we keep them and grab New Mexico States football program. I wouldn't mind their hoops but we need balance. If they make some noise in the dance that will get real interesting!

You have to have football in order to be in CUSA.

We don't really have anything but softball and they let us hang around...

I wish UAB could stay. Basketball is the most interesting college sport. I would not mind if a bunch of teams dropped football. I still find it crazy how CUSA a has crumbled since we joined pretty much. SMU, Houston, UAB, Memphis, ECU, Tulsa, and Tulane all gone. I am content with our conference but if we keep losing teams every year it will not help.

I have a hard time kicking them out considering they are a founding member.

So was Charlotte, and UAB voted to kick them out in 2005 when the football rule came about.

As a founding member, I wonder if they voted to require all members play football ?

GO MEAN GREEN

All members are required to have a football team, regardless of whether you are a founding member or not.

I'm guessing he was commenting on the irony of UAB voting to to create the rule that should see them expelled from CUSA.

      2025 Roster Construction

      a couple names...pure speculation, but I kinda feel like some of these are the sorts of dudes who would fit the profile Malik Presley - 6'6" 200, Soph. Texas - started at Vandy, transferred to UT but sat all last season...very highly recruited out of HS, but so far SEC basketball has looked above him and may feel his career is stalling Jordan Ivey-Curry - 6'3" 175, Sr. UCF - no idea how he has eligibility...2 years at UTSA, 1 at Pacific, 1 back at UTSA and last season with UCF...if he does still have a college year, he's likely transferring for a bag, but if he's instead looking for a place to go get 15 shots a night, I'd like to offer him the forum. he's not as efficient a player that I usually like, but dude is a bucket Kevin Overton - 6'5" 200, Jr. Texas Tech - started 35 games at Drake as a freshman, important role player on an Elite 8 team last season (one we know plays tough defense)...could be looking to find a fit where he's back in an expanded/lead role Terrance Arceneaux - 6'6" 200, Jr. Houston - probably a pipe dream, but another key role player on a national runner-up. hasn't been a big scorer in 85 games at UH (career 5ppg) so might be looking for more shots Jacob Dar - 6'7" 170, Jr. Rice - opinions might be a bit skewed up here as he had a really good game against UNT...he was a streaky role guy on a bad Rice team...7.5ppg, 4rpg...but he seems to have a high motor and his shooting numbers (40%-37%-75%) are actually pretty solid for what we'd be asking from him

      Where do we go from here?

      It's funny. I get the same adrenaline rush beating a top ranked softball team (and the same funk after a loss) as any G5 or higher football game. We have a poorly funded sports program. I think most of that is because we simply don't have many fans. We get a pretty good bang for our buck for the numbers of people that attend our games, of any sport. The question is: if we are losing fans in droves, how long will we have a program? I'm sticking around as long as they turn the lights on. And when they go off, that will be a tough loss and a funk that won't go away quickly. By the way MGFinNO, your post that started this thread gave me about as much pleasure as one of those player goodbyes you called out. Pursue your happiness elsewhere if you must, but keep an open mind about a return. I'm not sure how the school reacts to this kind of talk, but this fan realizes we don't have that many to lose. GMG
