Who would you go after to return to an even 14? Here’s a list of options I had thought of: what if the sunbelt loses one school and we are unable to add from the AAC. I think we all could agree a weaken AAC leading to a ECU plus one addition would be exciting, but I wanted to pose this scenario. We aren't getting that golden ticket based on our location and "potential". We know that we need to elevate ourselves and this conference. That realization is what I believe will keep the core of the SBC strong. Take a look at all the schools that they've been associated with that has moved up. At some point, they need to seriously look around and read the room. I genuinely wish I could save them the disappointment many of their fans are setting themselves up for at times. I often wonder does ECU and their fans know they are a G5 school in Greenville, NC? I truly believe that being associated with so many metro schools for so long and seeing them come and go has really altered the reality of things for them. While the Sun Belt appears wise to stand pat with a winning hand, one wonders how future moves may force Commissioner Gill to raise the stakes. The college football universe is tossed into flaming entropy with only the Sun Belt and the MAC serving as bastions of calm.
