We'd have to take that. Even if it meant leaving the others behind. Could always turn into a full invite or something too, who knows.

Preach brother. The goal shouldn't be "go where we can win championships." It should be (like Olympic sports) "go where we can maximize our potential."

cmonnnnn just do something already.

JMU is having a great season. But, no conference options for the Bison. That's the deal killer.

I would assume there will be conference options for the Bison in the next two years, but for the time being I will enjoy FCS

That's great. Keeps pressure on our decision-makers to... make some decisions. We are talking about Western Illinois-level athletic departments here...

Exactly why the NCAA transformation committee should slam the door on CUSA. They are calling up un-worthy FCS schools simply to survive under the regional vision of their commish. That should not be allowed because it does nothing to elevate FBS. Total BS and it has nothing to do with ML

I just realized that this is how SDSU football must feel every year. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

We should've made the push 5-6 years ago. At least that's when the meter switched over for me. We've been waiting for "the right situation" to open up for at least that long. We've always said we're just one realignment cascade away, "wait for the split", etc. Boy are we going to be happy campers when Boise and SDSU get gobbled up and the MW invites the Montanas and leaves us out to dry. At this rate we'll watch Missouri State, SIU, Ill State, Indiana State all move on to greener pastures without us.

And all we get is radio silence...
