Five WHOLE years.
This would be like App State refusing to play Charlotte because Charlotte is so new and bad at football compared to App State's outstanding, long history. (Had to get a little jab in there mixed in with cockiness, but still, App State isn't too big not to play an obvious rival.
La. Tech is the G5's version of Ole Miss: an Alabama arrogance with an Ole Miss trophy case. They've won ten games once, ever, as an FBS program in 31 years. Appalachoan's done it four times in six years.
