Tech to the Belt, 2026

[Turbine]

In my eyes:

We get to BEAT their behinds on a yearly basis.

Forced (instead of willing) opponents, how is that better?

At this point we should just go independent. Right? Right???

That ship has sailed.

If they had 10 years ago Louisiana would be in the Big-12 now.

Today with the P4 going to 9 conference games, scheduling really is to much work.

Speaking to someone this morning, he never bought in to Shultz nonsense with Tech. In fact, he spoke several of their money people that he still has ties, and they knew it was going to be a battle in the East side. Apparently, the SBC did its due diligence in listening the several other programs interested in SBC membership down the road including Ohio.

But he also said the SBC is committed to ULM as a member and the best decision for the West was Louisiana Tech at this time. Long term, I still believe that the 2027-2028 is the deadline for current AAC members to meet their new revenue mandate for athletes and those programs will be willing to listen because there will be no buyouts involved if they are forced out and probably replaced. And yes, ECU is one of those programs that is 50/50 at this time outside of UAB, FAU and North Texas. JMO

If you are committed to ULM than you do everything you can to relegate Tech to the hell they chose to be in. You don't don't give them a life line and legitimize them as a FBS school. Tech needs to die in CUSA so ULM can absorb them and their budget. There is absolutely no Friggen way that North Louisiana needs two school 30 miles apart. For _____ sake let them die. This is gonna be the stupidest thing Gill has done and he need be fired when everything implodes

It worked so well for UTPA they are just finding their way back into FBS almost 30 years later under a completely different name
