[/quote] I don't understand why you would bring the word 'fighting' into the discussion.  All I've ever done is point out your inconsistencies and call you out on failing to report any sources for your 'inside information' that you obtained from various message boards. If anything I would compare it as one chickadee chirping about knowing where all the big worms are at but never showing any evidence, never revealing the location, and changing the subject whenever challenged. [/quote]LOL, gotta love this guy. big worm, lol. So what are your thoughts on the LA Tech disaster?

[quote name="puddin tane" post="1348099" timestamp="1354509718"] y'all havent figured it out?  UNLV is the [u][b]only[/b][/u] one that knows college football, whats best for Lamar, and knows every conference commissioner personally? [/quote]Had I been the wizard of Lamoz, Lamar would be in CUSA looking to go BE. Lamar lost so much ground over the last 20 years.

When you start providing references to conference commissioners, school presidents, or athletic directors, your "information rants" will actually have a bit of credibility.  Now that I think about it, have you ever done that?

[/quote] If the PAC expands, they sure as heck wouldn't take Hawaii or New Mexico. I think it'd be something like Boise and San Diego St or Houston/SMU (then again idk about SMU since the Pac isnt big on religious affiliated schools but SMU isn't like Baylor or BYU or Liberty plus USC is Methodist affiliated so...) or UNLV/Fresno (Though most conferences aren't too keen on taking a school in Vegas). However it goes, it won't New Mexico or Hawaii though. [/quote]No way would the Pac ever take Boise. The Pac is not looking for good football, Academics first and Boise is probably the worst FBS academic school.

[quote name="jdcurran235" post="1345382" timestamp="1354316328"] Per Mike on BRI: Reached out to some folks today and this is what I've got: -I think it's pretty obvious that the SBC and LU have spoken.  I'd say that if LU was financially ready to make such a move and their sports teams were winning in the SLC on a more consistent basis it would almost be a certainty that they'd be invited and accept the invitation to the SBC.  The issue is they are not ready.  The timing for all of this recent conference movement and the opportunity for LU to move up to an FBS conference is not occurring at the most opportune time for the university.  - I hear that the SBC has a list of Georgia Southern, Idaho, New Mexico State & then Lamar. Indications are that GSU & NM State will accept and rumors have Idaho joining in football only. The Vandals other sports would stay in the WAC or could possibly move to the Big Sky conference. Lamar would be on deck for the SBC. What does all this mean? It means who really knows?  I read somewhere else that LU would be announced moving to the Sun Belt in two weeks.....well that could still happen but other than probably Jimmy Simmons, Jason Henderson & Karl Benson who really knows the answer?  I don't expect it to happen but I've been wrong before.  Too many people I've spoken to that would have heard some news of this by now tell me that they haven't heard anything.  They either have great poker faces or Lamar still has a lot of obstacles in the way before making such a move. Stay tuned, we'll keep asking.  [/quote]Sounds like some one is blowing smoke to pretend he is in the know. Outside football, SBC is the SLC and Lamar would do fine. Troy and Monroe do very well in football, but olympic sports are garbage. Other than football, nothing great about the SBC and I find it hard to believe anyone at Lamar is so stupid to  think so.

Katfans ain't buying it either. I have been telling you guys for the longest, Lamar is the titanic, SBC is the ocean. My wishes is for something better. Many scenarios are possible: 1. UTEP, UNT, UTSA, Tulsa, and Rice says enough, then joins the MWC. NMSU, Texas st, Lamar, Ark st, and ULL joins CUSA. 2. Texas st is not happy with changes. They might take an interest in the MWC and take Lamar with them. 3.Tulsa and UTSA go BE. CUSA take Texas st. UTEP goes MWC. CUSA take Ark st and Lamar. However the most likely scenario is App st, GSU, NMSU, and Lamar to SBC.

Massey at least shows Lamar dominating the SLC.

Ole miss 3 games were against SLC schools. They beat SELA by 10, destroyed NELA, then Lamar destroyed them. Lamar could dominate the SLC if this RPI has some truth. Not a 10th ranking, but top 50 or 100.

I know the season is early, however Lamar womens are ranked 10th RPI [Hidden Content]

I still rather a SBC pounding than a SLC pounding. Realignment is all over the map. MWC may lose 3 teams. MWC fans says MWC will grab Texas teams. I say which Texas team? NOT LAMAR. If MWC lose 1 team, then Lamar to the MWC with Texas st is a good move. If 3 teams leave, no for Lamar. Everything is pointing SBC right now.
