And ODU basketball continues it's downward plummet. Heck CUSA was above the Sunbelt....certainly in basketball and pretty even in football. Now ODU is going down into the trenches. The Sunbelt is not the Sunbelt of old...circa early 1980's when we were apart of it.
As far as JMU....to them, basketball over the last 20 years has never been a big thing. They have been a cellar dwellar since about 2000'. But in D1aa or whatever it is called, their football has been actually pretty top notch. I don't know how their football has been the last 5 years but if it's been good, they should be a decent team in the Sunbelt......although their basketball will continue to suck.
But perhaps ODU and JMU bball may actually be winners in the sunbelt considering how low the sunbelt is.....lower than the CAA and CUSA. And CUSA is now toast. Who wants ECU? SoCon? Appi St is not moving to CUSA now
