Danny Kaspar head coach at Stephen F. Austin

_ Please people stop the drama. The Southland is not better than the Sunbelt. Yes we lost to McNesse but hey everyone has a bad game and we did royally but by far the Southland in and out is not better. Not saying Kasper is not a good coach. I have met him and saw his teams play. He could be a fit here but let's not go overboard with the Southland/Sunbelt issues here. _

I don't think that the Southland is always a better league than the Sunbelt. I just think that it is this year. I also think that the winner of the Southland will probably get a higher seed than the winner of the Sunbelt.

McNeese is one of the worst teams in the Southland this year. The Texas schools in the Southland are very good this year. They are extremely solid. That leads me to the point that I was making. What makes you think that the Sunbelt is better than the Southland??? (This Year)

Apparently, SHSU is The team in the Southland this year. Why is their head coach not mentioned. They lost to UL but beat Auburn and are having a great year. I don't know anything about him, just wondering.

Because every conference RPI ranking I could find said so.

RPI is not totally what matters. Most Southland schools have to pay a ton more guarantee road games.

It will be interesting to see if Sam gets a better seed than Sunbelt champ.

I think it was like 7 wins to 4 wins in the Southland/Sunbelt series this year, in favor of the Sunbelt.

However, the majority of the games were against lower tier Southland schools.

Just because the Sam Houston coach has not been mentioned here does not mean he is not on the list of candidates we would consider. In fact, I bet he is on the list.
