I wouldn't say ULM is a step up, but I can't even pick a school with a division 1 football program USF can look down on right now.

Alabama  has played 3 games s ULM, ALL three have been at their home. They have two more schedule , BOTH are in Bama. If you are going to try to argue, research what you say first. You know little about NCAA football if you truly believe that a school like Bama, LSU, Florida would even consider a 2-1 with ULM.

as for the NY6 bowls, let me know how many times an AAC school has made it and how many times has a SunBelt team has? I’ll save you research time, it’s 5-0 for AAC. Now go and tell me what the TV payout is for the AAC vs SunBelt.

Its not about how many times a conference went My point is that the NY6 spot goes to the highest ranked G6 team. The Sunbelt has the SAME OPPORTUNITY and the SAME CEILING that USF has which is a NY6 bowl game. What is so hard to understand about that?

It is not about right now and is not about win/ loss records. It doesn’t matter if Florida is winless and Vanderbilt goes 10-2. Vanderbilt will never be a better overall football program. Same here ULM in the SunBelt will always be an inferior program than USF in the AAC

I NEVER said ULM or the Sunbelt Conference is a better team/conference. I simply stated that at this point, they have the SAME ceiling (NY6 bowl game) and the SAME opportunity to get to the NY6 bowl game. I think the move is a lateral move and I stand by that.

Which argument are you going with? In the first, you're saying that 1 year of Vandy being good doesn't trump UF's entirety. I agree. The other is saying that a Sunbelt team is automatically weaker than an AAC team. I agree with the first until Vandy bangs out a couple of national championships. I disagree with the second. Boise State is, technically, in a lower conference. Their program smokes ours by any measure you can come up with.

Save face? You guys thought his career was over or he waa going to FCS or D2 football. I felt he wouldnt go lower than a G6 school and I was right

This is NOT about Boise State. This is about saying that ULM in SunBelt is a better program overall than USF. There are NO teams in the AAC that would leave for Sun Belt. The SunBelt is a lower conference period. Can you have a team from there have a few good seasons where they would beat AAC teams, yes but they won’t sustain it.

You can stand by it all you want. But going from an AAC team to a SunBelt team is NOT a lateral move for any coach nor player. I wish them success in their future but doesn’t change facts.

ULM is definitely not a better program than USF. But, being in a lower conference, like Boise is, does not exclude a program from being better than us.
