Very well explained

What the Permire League does is the use a "tired" system. What you see on television is their top teams. When a club is really bad, they move them down one level until they get better. Also when a team is really good, they move them up to the top level. (think like if MLB moved a team down to AAA of move one up from AAA)

You would think at least they would try

Just saw this on Yahoo Sports

So you would like to have it set up like English Premier League soccer?

Two questions: Is it just me, or is Conference USA trying to get AQ by sheer numbers? Also with this lineup of Southern Miss, Marshall, East Carolina, Tulane, Tulsa, Rice, UTEP, UAB, North Texas, Charlotte, Louisiana Tech and Florida International, does this sound like the poor-mans MAC West?

Are you saying since the MAC sat on their hands, they got lucky in the foodchain known as football?

The short answer is "no" on that. However I did ask that question out loud.

UTSA? If they are taking schools like this, then Akron should be on the list to bolt. Unless, they want to stay. If this is the case, it spells total doom.

When I saw this, I honestly thought that it was another one of those articles, but I this might have some merit. Link from NPR

Is this bases on "tickets sold" or actual butts in seats?

San Deigo State, Really!? Now that is a desperate move by both sides. If it is all about the Television market, I decided to go hear and take a look for myself Top T.V markets If it is being based just on that, San Deigo is way down the list and a bad, bad move

I think because the police has a investigation and some major c.y.a.

See Tear gas in action!

Here is what I saw: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/3...890195764_n.jpg The pictures in question does not do it justice, but my account, there was at least 2,000 people there

Zippy you are right, Southern Miss was a bad on to put in the post, but UTEP has been one of the worst for years. Taking a quick look at their conference, there are several offenders of pure bad football for years. Conference USA is looking more and more like a bad idea

Pass defence was my issue. I know is was the sprimg game, but when you hang 50, there are issues. Mabye mike could give more in depth insite

Its a standing question

UTEP and Southern Miss should be thankful they have not been stepped down to FCS. Two very bad football schools talking trash. They need to look in the mirror.

I agree with you. I also lived in Phoenix(Buckeye to be more specific) for 6 years. There are transplants out there, but if it wasn't ASU, they did not care and that was even debatable at times. I remember I was in Native New Yorker and they had Akron Soccer on. Every one was watching and it felt great. It was even better because Since everyone knew me, and they knew I was from Akron. I got the same questions (what is a Zip, ect.) and they could not believe that they were that good

After reading this article, it is very scary when the quote that sticks out to me is "Our goal this year is to win one more game than last year," Coach Bowden said. "We just have to work to get that win and then build from that." It might be a long, long year

Mabye that is why they fired him today.

So it should be modeled after NFL Eroupe?

How about behind the old Firestone complex? Other than the canal, I don't think there is nothing back there.
