I don't think they're eligible for a bowl game this year.

The article says the waiver request was denied by the NCAA in April. VA attorney General wrote a letter to reconsider and was also denied.

This is not surprising really. Ever since Charlie Baker was named the new NCAA president, they have been denying over 99% of all waiver requests. It was always a high percentage, but now almost nothing gets approved.

Here's another random one just today : https://www.si.com/college/westvirgi...raequan-battle

It would have pissed me off if JMU did get a waiver, because nobody else is, for anything.

Army will be joining the American Athletic Conference as a football-only member for the 2024 season, sources confirm to @TheAthletic
. Yahoo first reported the news.

AHEM. FOOTBALL ONLY

Wake me when we're in the BIG12

Yeah totally no difference between West Point and North Dakota State

point is a G5 WILL TAKE A FOOTBALL ONLY and make it work. that's good for NDSU

Army is a backfill for SMU, who is leaving for the ACC.

Army is a huge market draw, and is being accommodated more than most would. Not quite Notre Dame, but being a service academy, it has a large national following, and fits nicely with Navy. They would like to add Air Force as well if they could.

They are potentially looking at a basketball add to match, VCU or another A10 school like Dayton is the rumor.
Having a top A10 caliber basketball program would help our odds of an invite someday.
