Re: Rumor mill starting early...
My source said he could not say any details because of his job, but said (at least UNA people) should be very happy. I would assume that means all three.
He also didn't give a time, just said soon. If he knows, then its because he has to prepare for it because of his job....

Probably in the minority but I just do not see the advantage of a move to another FCS conference . Especially one is a basketball conference.

Re: Rumor mill starting early...
It sounded like the plan was to bring in enough good FCS schools to create FCS football in the ASUN separate from the current deal they have with the Big South.
North Alabama and Kennesaw St are already ASUN. So add UCA, JSU, us and one or two others (one rumor is SE Louisiana and Nichols St) and you have a fair strong football component of a conference.

Re: Rumor mill starting early...
the thing we all assume, is we all have all the info. Who know what all is behind the scenes with the A-sun, also who knows what may be taking place behind closed doors inside the OVC
Re: Rumor mill starting early...
What Ted Gumbart has went on record saying is that the ASUN wants to have football because it's a very important sport in the South, and the ASUN is the only mid major conference in the South without football.
He also has said that it does not make sense to have so many similar schools, in one region, that play football in FCS, that are spread across 4 different conferences. It causes the conferences to not be as strong as they should be.
