Maybe we can talk El Centro College into fielding a team and joining our conference too? We would certainly save on travel costs. :rolleyes:

That is small-time thinking...If we are going to raid the DCCCD, we should totally go after Brookhaven. Solid name recognition, impeccable location, and they would add a ferocious new mascot to the SBC (bears). Go big or go home right?.... :P

I hear Roffler's Barber College has one helluva' budding football program, and they say they are on the cutting edge of greatness. :rolleyes:(My poor attempt of the Norm dad joke of the month)

GMG!

Could improve our basketball. Based on what I know they did a year or two ago, I bet they could take down Troy, ULM, and at least one other team on a neutral floor.

I'm not really kidding, either.

Ok, I guess my good authority is just a gut feeling. But my gut proved to be correct in the Dodge firing when I felt heading into the season that he'd be fired at some point. So I'm going to roll with it.

Well that's all the proof I need. Now what's your gut say about all this Lehman Brother's stock I'm still holding on to.

Texas State would be a better addition over North Alabama

IMO, SBC Commish' seems to want a deeper Deep South presence in the Sun Belt Conference. I think he is smart enough to realize that North Texas will "probably" not always be a 'Belt member in the future.

If he adds schools like UNA, he is just making sure what happened to Karl Benson of the WAC does not happen to Wright Waters of the SBC. It would be a smart move for Wright Waters, but not one that would excite many of us.

When did Wright Waters ever indicate an interest in UNA. The SBC is not adding FCS schools.

I had a gut feeling the sun was going to rise today.

The president of UNA submitted a report to his BOR.

Outlined the possible move to Division 1.

Potential conference candidates: one mentioned is SBC for geographic reasons.

Someone, I think eppy4life, ran with it and thinks UNA is joining the SBC in the near future.

Everyone stated that Waters is not looking to expand the SBC outside of South Alabama joining in football since they are already a member in other sports.

Don't feel like reading the 3 pages of this thread.

Someone sum it up for me in 10 words or less.

Thanks in advance.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
