Conference realignment again????

So you want 0-8 since Jake to be a story told over and over?

If they're screaming 8-0 in a dead conference and dying program....is there anyone there to hear them? It's like the old saying, if a tree falls in the forest.....

Besides, we don't have to be in the same damn conference to play them. How many times does it need to be said?

We may have to be in the same conference for them to play us.

There cetainly are those attempting to create the illusion of fan support for this game.

Perhaps they are attempting to maneuver the big picture.

It takes two to tango, so if we want to play LaTech and they feel the same to play us in football, there's no reason for both parties not to sign a 10 year contract to keep playing regardless of conference affiliation. But in today's college football and seems like the future is scheduling out of conference games that will attractive to networks and television viewers. Not many around the country will care so much about two Louisiana based teams playing. Its not the Iron Bowl. The best bet for us gaining the most TV viewers is a Friday night TV game, maybe its a road game at a Big 12 or ACC team. Not a thrilling concept but you get paid and you get more TV viewers growing the brand. Then the 10 year contract Tech game is for Saturday nights, get the crowds.

The Big 12 said expansion candidates are evaluated based on Brand and Geography, not media markets. UL has the geography and a pretty good national brand. Our OOC scheduling focus should be against P5 schools that will enhance our brand nationally, like our win over Iowa State.

This. LTUR adds zero. Not interested in them for a conference mate. Some seem to forget how much most of their conference mates are happy to be parted with them.

Someone needs to link Jay’s post on the belt board regarding why ElAye Tech is pretty much universally disliked by the SBC.

Some sins of the past need to be remembered. In fact, 10 year anniversary of one is approaching. Arf!

I always thought the Necksters were the ones that were afraid to play the game.

From what I have read this isn't about playing a game, this is about not being interested in having them for a conference mate.
