I don't see a merger happening, but the shake up could result in movement by some teams. I personally would like to see Louisiana Tech come to the SBC. I would also like to see Tulane in the SBC. That would make Louisiana the most prominent state in the conference. Add in Georgia State and South Alabama and the SBC would really represent the south.
GO OWLS!!!
I was just mentioning Tulane yesterday! Its a good geographical fit, and would boost our educational rep.
Ga State is a great fit and having a team in that state would be great for recruiting as well. They're they second largest school iN GA, similar to FAU, urban campus, growing fast.

FAU needs to get out of the SBC asap. Conference USA would be the natural progression and would help the program evolve (as it has UCF).
Exactly!
GO OWLS!

Im not so sure that CUSA is a huge step up from the 'Belt right now. They do have more Bowl games, and have a few more "Known" teams. It is a step up but not a slam dunk IMHO.
I've grown to like the teams we have in the 'Belt and the rivalrys we have. The 'Belt does have some potential.
I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick @$$ and I'm out of bubble gum.

New Stadium
Coach Leach
Big East
We would be amazed at how fast we jump up (maybe even faster than USF!) and would be arranging financing to expand to 45-50K in no time at all.
Go for it FAU - the future is ours to grasp!

CUSA/BIG EAST definitely makes more sense for us! Would also be nice to get an offer from ACC; I know that maybe a pipe dream though….
