I image the Sun Belt isn't finished with all it's moves but I love the addition of Georgia Southern and Appy State. Both have strong football programs with big followings. Of all the 1AA schools these are the two with the most potential and are the most recognizable.

Don't get me wrong I'm happy to be moving into CUSA but I wouldn't have had a problem sharing my home with these two schools!

I think the future of the Sun Belt should expand to a larger number in similar size markets. This way the conference will remain stable with the potential to be the MAC of the south. Too often if you get a new school in a big market they jump ship...I don't really see that happening with the new schools (minus Georgia State and Texas State).

Schools that I see carrying the conference in the future
Troy
Appy State
Georgia Southern

This is a strong trio!

The school that I think needs to be added is Jacksonville State. It's a nature rival but I keep hearing Liberty and James Madison?? Hopefully the Sun Belt will retain this new group of schools and establish themselves as the MAC of the south.

I will miss the rivalry games with USA, UL-LA and Ark State and hope they follow us to CUSA. I think it'll happen but a few more moves need to happen. Which they will.

The B1G aint finished just yet. I see UVA, UNC, Duke and GaTech all jumping to the B1G which will start it all over again. Clearly it'll trickle down to CUSA and the Sun Belt again.

I wish the Sun Belt the best and I'll be following each team from a distance. Good luck!
