We'll leave the light on for you. Until then we'll just have to content ourselves on you filling our stadium and losing to us in OOC.

I have several family members who are die-hard ECU fans. "Season tickets for decades in multiple sports" ECU fans.

I'll repeat what I've told them in person: Wouldn't it be great to be in a conference that wants you?

When has ECU ever been in a conference they wanted to be in? It wouldn't be this one.

that's about right ... the number was always somewhere close to 48 - 64 schools...

going after a hoops school tells me 64 is the number....

it's going to be amusing when some get left out in the rain ... that's the sky screamin' and whinin' my arse is waiting for....

The SBC has to ready to strike if the ACC gets raided and backfills with some of the rumored AAC schools. We'll never be apart of the P2/P3, but we could be in position to join a second level of the new look ACC and whatever comes of the PAC/MWC. A couple of quality adds could distance us from the remaining AAC, CUSA, and MAC.

See, this is diff... half y'all want us to get teams NOW, not when the big boys get raided and we pick the leftovers..

Don't be a fallback. Those schools will never be happy.
