Well I think a team like SBU, Lincoln, Langston, or even a few non-FB could benefit from a centrally located league with pretty solid Olympic Sports and SNU is getting better in basketball.
I know you like to justify your school's move to NAIA and as small as it is it might make sense. But the other state schools are not following suit. They are simply too big for it in its current incarnation.
Besides how are those regular trips to Ottawa Arizona and SAGU working out? (Especially when they fold.)Go Bronchos!

Hopefully a college 8-man league will be formed so UCO can win a few games. Not doing so well in the MIAA.

I would really like to see what GAC posters say too I only wish more Okies were on here.
But I'll indulge you any GAC schools want to drop to NAIA???
Queue the Jurassic Park meme...
One would think with your enrollment you would move up a classification. Skeered?

Personally, I would rather all of the D2 Oklahoma schools to form a conference. That would allow for non-con games against the LSC/MIAA, and it ultimately would help the Oklahoma schools IMO. But as it is right now, I don't think the Oklahoma schools are benefiting that much from either the GAC or MIAA. Just look at the disaster that is Northeastern State. UCO is doing rather well for themselves in the MIAA, but with an enrollment of 17,000, you would think their football program would be much better. At least they are finally sinking money into the program. Hopefully the Oklahoma schools get more competitive in the GAC, but as it is, I don't see that happening for a few more years at least.

I think a big part of it is recruiting. Some of the Oklahoma schools just haven't had as much talent maybe? I think the backbone is there, you just need the players.

Originally posted by BulldogLB View PostI think the recruiting is a very valid point. I know for a fact that SWOSU's women's basketball team had the same recruiting budget the football team did the years I played there (2015-2019). So idk how the Arkansas school's athletic departments budget their recruiting, but I would imagine that their football teams get more than women's basketball lmao.
