Yep, and then they get to a bowl game and continue the grand tradition of beating a MAC team that every G5 conference seems to enjoy. RE: Reports out of missouri saying JMU and MSU recieved invite - slycat - 04-09-2014 10:04 PM If it means getting MSU and NMSU I'll take JMU or Liberty RE: Reports out of missouri saying JMU and MSU recieved invite - GaSoEagle - 04-09-2014 10:05 PM I hope this works out. In football that would be 2014 (this year): 11 schools for football 2015: 13 schools for football with Missouri St. and JMU transitioning/ Ga. Southern and App. St. would be full members 2016: 12 football schools with Idaho released/ All schools full FBS and eligible for bowls.

Ga. Southern and App were FCS moveups. The conference did not want to transition more than 2 teams, so NMSU and Idaho were added. Then you guys (WKU) left so the 12 team idea was wrecked. So are you saying NMSU has a UMASS clause.

No. There is no exit clause. Just a clause that allows us to add all sports should we choose to. There is zero chance NMSU would turn down such an invite. Remember, the SBC has always maintained a strong relationship with NMSU. Its not something we're going to just give up. RE: Reports out of missouri saying JMU and MSU recieved invite - Kittonhead - 04-09-2014 10:09 PM SBC East: JMU, EKU, App State, Georgia St, Georgia So, Troy SBC West: USA, ULL, ULM, Arkansas St, Missouri St, Tx State RE: Reports out of missouri saying JMU and MSU recieved invite - GaSoEagle - 04-09-2014 10:10 PM Under this scenario NMSU would be brought in as an all sports member in 2016-17 although I guess it could be done in 2015-16 RE: Reports out of missouri saying JMU and MSU recieved invite - buryyourduke - 04-09-2014 10:10 PM (04-09-2014 10:03 PM)knucklehead Wrote: OK, NOW tweets are reliable sources since they say what folks want to hear.

Mike Barber, he's the one that said a couple weeks ago that JMU would be following App State RE: Reports out of missouri saying JMU and MSU recieved invite - knucklehead - 04-09-2014 10:12 PM If so, my JMU dislike (which is epic) will reach new heights. Enjoy that shaky stadium.

You're right, it's definitely a very different situation with UMASS. I see the Aggies coming along. My question would be, if Benson pulls this whole thing is he a genius?

It is bad enough when you hear that garbage from CUSA or MAC fans. I'm not sure if it will help your feelings about us, but I think that's a minority opinion on our board. I think most of us would be excited (and relieved) if we announced a move to the Sun Belt. I know I would.

Uhh...No. If this works, I wouldn't be shocked if you saw a couple notable Western Schools make a push for Benson's ouster. Could write it off as the perfect opportunity to finish the creation of our new image as a league. |
