"If ESPN says that more teams equates to more dollars, then the MWC/CUSA will almost certainly raid the WAC for Utah State and/or San Jose State and/or LaTech … and it will almost certainly raid the Sun Belt for the Florida schools (FIU/FAU) and/or North Texas and/or Middle Tennessee State.
And if that happens, then the WAC and Sun Belt are in big trouble — they won’t have enough football-playing schools to exist in the current landscape.
Yes, UTSA and Texas State and Charlotte are becoming FBS members.
But there’s a scenario … an entirely plausible scenario … in which more teams leave the Sun Belt and WAC for the MWC/CUSA superconference than can adequately be replaced in a reasonable amount of time."
Full Story
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Re: Super Conference Update
I have a buddy who is good friends with Bobby Robinson (Clemson ex AD) and was trying to convince him to retire down here and do the job (turns out he doesn't want to leave SC) but I think a guy like him is a great choice. He's seen it at the big time, knows how to build winning teams, etc etc etc.
We get someone that can throw a bit of weight around in the superconference meetings, I think we'll be better for it.
