Thought this was already a done deal ....

They were FB only until this announcment,  Look for school number 12 to be added in the very near future.(Tulsa is the rumor, target).

Good move. Always liked ECU, thought they should have been in the Old Big East. Couldn't understand why we invited schools like Houston, Memphis, and UCF before them.

Knew they were Football only at first but thought, with the other recent losses, they were bumped to full status .... I must be Claire Voyant.

So when's the invite going out to Sou Miss?

What do they bring to the table? Are they an elite team in any non-FB sport?

Market isn't good, but they are supposed to bring in good fans. Went to the campus once and seemed like a lot of the students are into football.

Navy is #11 coming in a few seasons,   Rumor is Tulsa is team #12 coming next year or with Navy. This should be announced within a few days to weeks.

Do we have any non-fb elite teams in this new conference, besides the UConn hoops teams? Baseball, soccer, softball ....?
