Is USM a done deal?

[JMV JustMyView]

Usm 247 guy said it was a done deal last night on their vip board

Hopefully the 247 guy isn't like the Vic guy.

Getting info from boosters that this thing is done. Expect SBC to wait until Marshall has a President in place to announce USM and Marshall to the belt at the same time.

That would be great.

Are we getting rid of Little Rock or UTA?

Also, isn't it fun to see La Tech sitting by the phone while the building around them is on fire and waiting for the AAC to call and save them?

Went by BBB this AM. They’re stuck fussing about what to call Louisiana while the rest of the G5 are walking around the walls of Ruston 7 times.

Their Stool Pigeon should fly in shortly and I don’t think they will like the message.

I don’t know anything more than anyone else, but I’d be absolutely shocked if USM won’t be in the Belt in the near future. There’s just way too much smoke — and smoke from reliable sources — for there to not be fire.

It seems like the details may be undecided though. Like will we wait for UTA and LR to find homes first, will we go to 12 or 14, is Marshall going to make the jump if we don’t invite WKU or ODU, etc.

I really really hope we move sooner rather than later though. I’m not an advocate for inviting schools just to screw over another conference, but C-USA is undoubtedly going to make a play to steal some of our schools or push for regionalization, and taking USM + 1-3 will block any possibility of that happening.
