UNLV Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 Lamar might can get a better deal. ESPN reporting Big Ten is in serious talk with Rutgers and Maryland.SBC may rush a Lamar invite.

jdcurran235 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 No one has ever been able to confirm anything yet
jdcurran235 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 Unlv miGht be right. Been reading interesting chatter on the sunbelt board
Green Menace Posted November 26, 2012 Report Posted November 26, 2012 Hope Lamar gets the Sun Belt invite. But gawed, the pounding you guys would take for a while against the likes of Arkansas State, Middle Tenn, Western Ky. And you've met ULL. Wow.
UNLV Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Posted November 27, 2012 I still rather a SBC pounding than a SLC pounding.Realignment is all over the map. MWC may lose 3 teams. MWC fans says MWC will grab Texas teams. I say which Texas team? NOT LAMAR. If MWC lose 1 team, then Lamar to the MWC with Texas st is a good move. If 3 teams leave, no for Lamar. Everything is pointing SBC right now.
Green Menace Posted November 27, 2012 Report Posted November 27, 2012 Don't underestimate the Sun belt. It's a good FBS league. Should get 5-6 teams in bowls this year. Of course, nowadays, bowls are like the "everybody gets a trophy" mantra.
coachacola Posted November 27, 2012 Report Posted November 27, 2012 I'm still sticking with my prediction that Lamar will end up in the SBC. WKU lost something like 20+ games when they made the move but now they're winning. FCS football just won't cut it long term because way too many people see it as D2 football and FBS football is king in this part of the country.

Lamar would attract better talent in the MWC than SBC.
coachacola Posted November 27, 2012 Report Posted November 27, 2012 Just read that ECU and Tulane are going to the Big East. Could see a Sun Belt school or two move to the CUSA.

navydawg31 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Posted November 27, 2012 LU will get the invite to go to SBC
skipmeister Posted November 27, 2012 Report Posted November 27, 2012 Yeah, right? Jacksonville State and App. State would join LU if it happens! FAU would join FIU for CUSA! It might happen!

Lamar dropped football and returned to the SLC because of similar mentalities.
Green Menace Posted November 28, 2012 Report Posted November 28, 2012 That's not all folks. Florida Atlantic has accepted an invite to CUSA. Make that CUSA III.
