Tech to the Belt, 2026

[CAJUNSby90]

Well, if I were a betting man, UL and ULM knew how the votes would fall amongst the presidents. Politically, the best of both worlds.

Also would bet USM and USA lead the no coalition.

Marshall is also against Tech to sunbelt.

What if cream of the crop of SBC and AAC would make a new conference? Y'all think we make the cut? I saw someone float that on Twitter.

SBC and AAC should merge and make an east and central division. PAC 12 becomes the west. 3 conferences across the country. And CUSA is the minor leagues.

FFS.....this again. Unreal how any UL fan would EVER advocate to have Tech in our conference. Un...real. Yeah, let's elevate those folks to compete with us for recruits. Brilliant. I’ll never understand that. If you think Tech would EVER lift a finger to help us out by pulling us up, you're smoking something. They would never. In fact...they've done the opposite....worked to keep us down. There's other schools to go after.

I was one in the minority willing to add LaTech. I think it would make for excellent sporting events annually within an easy drive. I do respect the points you are making and can agree that it could very well have backfired on us.

You may not like it but Fox's view is probably similar to that of the Presidents and AD's of the current SBC West schools have.

It appears that T Joe knew he had the votes elsewhere. In that case I can respect the taking the high road.

Great idea!!!

I bet T Joe and that new broad up in Monroe are working behind the scenes to get them voted down but can’t do it publicly for political reasons.
