Glasco gets real about path to postseason:

[GeauxLouisiana]

I just now thought of this ...again.

UL was in before those rules applied, should have grandfathered immunity.


Are you saying this is another of Farmer's needless concessions?

It's not Farmer's. That would be on T-Joe and the other schools Presidents since they are the ones that vote on changes to the by-laws.

You don't get grandfathered in each time a rule changes.

Where do you put your men's and women's basketball teams? Tennis, track and field? And so on. Because they won't have a home in the Sun Belt.

You put them in the best possible conference. There would be a few that would take us, but really, it's not like we would be leaving the A-10. The SBC is no better than those other leagues that would take us. At a minimum, either the A-Sun or the Summit would take us. The SLC would be a good bet as well. I also wouldn't rule out the MVC. They are looking right now for quality public schools to add.

This would be a non-factor.

Is doesn't matter in either case because Softball and Baseball are not going to get us in any conference period regardless of how successful the programs. Dr Maggard admitted last month we have nothing to sale right now to any conference including the AAC. Our football hasn't won conference championships and our MBB program is mediocre in a bad conference. In addition to that, our academics is not Tier I and our budget doesn't inspire anyone either. This is comical at best, but let's fix what we have right now and start winning championships!

You're right, AD's have no influence here.

As far as grandfathered, you're right again. Not if you vote for it. Like the buyout that is now required.

Let's cut to the chase T.

If you're offered BIG-12 membership for Baseball and Softball, do you turn it down?

Yes or No?

If my employer offers to triple my salary for next year, I’m not going to turn that down.

Let's cut to the chase. Is anyone out there offering membership for baseball and/or softball only?

I just hope no one is offering to pick us up on Water Skiing. We'd probably still end up in the same conference as ULM. Gross.
