For Funsies: Conference Reallignment/Creation

[AlienAiden]

UMass was a football-only member. The MAC told them they needed to commit to full membership status or depart.

Edit: I see rf1 was already on this.

And in comes the Ohio Bobcat to set us all straight.

Trilly's definitely not a rando. If he's saying that there is likely something to it, and Charleston would be a fantastic addition to the conference (at least until Kelsey gets poached).

it would be a pleasure to travel down to charleston once a year to watch vcu kick their a$$

If we trade UMass for Charleston, I view that as an upgrade, and not only because Charleston is a great visit.

Nobody will ever say that I don't have my ears to the ground listening for meaningless rumors.

UMASS for C of C would be a good trade for the conference.

I agree, I hope it happens.

Delaware to the MAC is hilarious, though.

Why is it hilarious? Delware has a solid FCS program and they have great facilities. Wilmington is in close proximity to Philly. They would be a good pick up in my opinion.

Can't see how Delaware adds anything to the MAC. That would be just adding to add.

I am not a MAC historian.

I am not a MAC historian.

After what we have learned today, we all are.

Basically this. Delaware is a low-tier team in the CAA except in football, they don't have much to offer the MAC otherwise.

 

[BradRamFan]

If COC joins and Umass leaves, that still leaves us at an odd number of team - 15. Get Wichita to join for an even number.

 

[Mr X]

Speaking of joining the Big East, how close are we to breaking ground on the Athletic Village? This fall correct?

 

[Havoc City]

Yeah. Stanford had no choice.

The ACC did though. It was a dumb decision for them.

If only the ACC presidents were as smart as you.
