The nastier this gets, the better in my opinion. What do we have to lose?

Your integrity?

Yep. Get your checkbooks out SB3.

SB3

CUSA Office

CUSA is playing this straight down the line. They have the law on their side and can name their price for the SB3 to leave. How much yall willing to pay to get out?

**** if I know. I'm just a peon fan on a message board. =]

Me too bro.

Certainly not the reputation of competent conference leadership

You broke the contract big guy.

Well, it could always get worse.. Judy could sentence all our games to CUSA.tv

Right? Can't write a better drama. Keep everyone entertained all off season and the boards poppin.

Nah. We have notice of our intent to breach in December. If CUSA wants to pretend it didn’t happen and cause more hardships that’s not on us.

You saying you are leaving isn't the be all end all. You are going against a bylaw. They don't have to negotiate with you. Your 3 schools are the ones going against the law .

As I said, I think they settle, but it isn't absolute

Sure and here's five bucks to buy you off that should do it.

It's about the same amount we get on Facebook streams, that should cover it.

Marshall may have to play SBC/CUSA double-headers on Saturdays next season.

After all the grandiose statements several days ago, where is the Big Announcement from the SBC welcoming the new July 1 additions?

Deafening silence from the SBC so far.

Miami OH got any schedule openings next year? Apparently we can play App State, WKU, and Miami at the same time (but you'll have to stay in your assigned third of the locker room).

But any FURTHER damage the conference does by acting foolish we aren’t responsible for. Like issuing a schedule with those schools included or letting CBS pick a Marshall game.

Unlike C-USA, the Sun Belt isn't run by idiots. No reason for them to be involved yet. Once this is settled you'll see the welcoming party and pomp and circumstance and whatnot.

Um…….ODU will be opting out of the 2022 season due to the ongoing pandemic and the safety of our athletes and community.

Thats because you can't leave. But if you could, you would be out the door too. As if ECU wanted you, they have already run form you once. Memphis doesn't want you or UAB back either. If they did both would have been included in 2014.

I hope our president and AD never schedule a CUSA school again. Didn't have a history with any of them in the 1st place.

CUSA Schools we had played before 2014

WKU 5 times, once in my lifetime, 2 times before my parents were even born- 1941, 1942, 1950, 1951. 1996

FIU- 1 time 2011 BOB bowl

MTSU- 2 times, 1992, 1994 both playoff games

LA Tech- 1 time 1942

North Texas- 1 time, 1988 playoff game

Everyone else- 0 games
