    Tarleton should have company REAL soon. No doubt WT is the next to go.
    Yeah, WT will go back to D1 when Barron Trump is President.

      Ha!! I was talking football. More people across the country will actually know Tarleton exists.

        Something is afoot I hope. I was looking at past histories of conference alignment for LSC schools like WT. Border Conference and Missouri Valley. ACU was Southland twice and an Independent for 7 years from late 50's till they joined Southland in the mid 60"s. Never knew that. Northern Colorado, Northern Arizona, Southern Utah (which has a recent history of playing Texas FCS schools) and others as FCS football conference with a western slant makes sense. NMSU would go FCS if legislature in Santa Fe dictates they play UNM every year despite affiliation. Basketball is a problem though. The ACU poster may know something because ACU has played Northern Arizona, Northern Colorado and has a series coming up with Southern Utah. The difference in time zones is a killer though. Number one complaint of TCU in the Mountain West.
        I love the LSC and it's history but you do not need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. SLC schools have much more national name ID by the way. That doesn't mean you need to join them but SFA barley losing to Notre Dame in sweet 16, Nichols beating Big 12 schools, just to name a few. Come on man.
        Tarleton beating SFA, not a national story even though they can compete right now in SLC. You don't want to go to Thibodaux La. if you can help it except to eat.

            The same could be said about most of the FCS conferences. Unless one has an affiliation to the schools, the average college football fan (much less the country) couldn't name 3 schools from the FCS conferences without looking them up. Seriously, without looking them up, who could name 3 schools from the following:

            Big Sky Conference
            Colonial Athletic Conference
            Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference
            Missouri Valley Conference
            Northeast Conference
            Ohio Valley Conference
            Patriot League
            Pioneer League
            Southern Conference
            SWAC

                I could. Easily. But I'm not an average fan. I could tell you most of their nicknames and colors too.

                  You get awarded today's participation award. Do you want a ribbon or one of those cheap imported from China plastic trophy things?

                    SWAC
                    But some of those conferences field good basketball teams. And that is why they have FCS football so they can get the checks from the TV revenue and of course the chance to go through March madness or the NIT.

                            ... and we still have memories of being a national powerhouse in football for 40 years. What's that worth in today's world?
