Yeah, that list is garbage.
Here are your top contributors to the conference on the field or courts....
1. WKU (2 football championships and 31 wins since they became a member in just 3 seasons) Good women's BB too.
2. Middle Tennessee (back to back CUSA championships in men's BB and back to back second round NCAA tourney appearances, like 2-3 titles in Women's BB and a football team that hasn't had a losing season since 2011. People can say whatever but we contribute a lot and have since we joined. Haven't had a year when we haven't.
3. LaTech - Good contributor all over the board. If it wasn't for our 2 back to back B-Ball championships and success in the NCAA tourney, they would leap frog us.
4. ODU - Coming up in FB and competes well in all of their other sports too.
5. Marshall - They have done a lot in FB in the past but are slipping.
6. USM - Meh - Getting better in FB and had to cheat to be good in BB. They are just there I guess like a genital wart. Most of the time they are dormant and then they have an occasional breakout.
7. UAB - I like them better than the rest
... and now for the "Why in the hell are they in our conference?" category.
8. UTSA - They have upside in FB now but the west sucks.
9. FIU - Can we ask them to leave?
10. FAU - Maybe drunk Kiffin can throw enough under the table cash to elevate them. That hype video gives off a lot of confidence.
11. UNT - Come on. Really?
12. Charlotte - Can we trade for Appy St.?
13. Rice - uh, yeah.
14. UTEP - Mexico's forgotten team. Aye ya yah!
8-14 is straight dead weight and is why there is no excitement in this league. Replace with ASU, Troy, Appy st., Ga Southern, and maybe a South Bama and then you have a pretty competitive football conference. Would be better than what we have now no doubt.
