Has it ever crossed yalls mind that the NCAA, particularly the GSC, has tried everything in their power to sortove “get back” at us for making the transition to D1 Athletics? It seemed that way for sure or UNA always drew the short end of the stick when it came to officiating

Has it ever crossed yalls mind that the NCAA, particularly the GSC, has tried everything in their power to sortove “get back” at us for making the transition to D1 Athletics? It seemed that way for sure or UNA always drew the short end of the stick when it came to officiating I can't say that (reasons I can't talk about at the moment) What I can say is that there were the 4 main programs holding the GSC together and arguably the "Bell Cow" program moves on. That's a big deal to the conference. I also believe, no mater what a few of there fans say, a few more GSC schools will be in the A-Sun, Big South, and possibly the Southland if Delta St and MC does the same. But, it seems to me, that VSU, UWF, UWG, need the A-Sun and the A-Sun needs them. The Big South could use North Greenville. I believe the A-Sun will be a version of the GSC one day. %$# Can't talk about the possibility of !] These two schools yet.... Lipscomb UNA KSU UWG VSU UWF UNF JU STETSON FGCU If the two I can't talk about joining, join, then it will be a while before all of the GSC schools mentioned will be invited. The A-Sun wants to get to 10 full members soon. And they will want to gaurd against NJIT leaving so 11 may be possible until NJIT leaves. I was also told on good authority, after USC Upstate left the A-Sun that that was all that have considered leaving and though it was a surprise, it was not totally unexpected. But the rest of the A-Sun wants to stay in the A-Sun. |

Why would the NCAA care if we want to move to D1? As long as we do everything that is required/asked of us, and obviously we have, I doubt it matters to them what we are.
As for the GSC, I'm sure they are/were disappointed. But no, I can't say I think they told conference officials to "be tougher on us" or whatever. If word of that got out, what schools would look to be a part of the GSC in the future? Probably not many.

If word of that got out, what schools would look to be a part of the GSC in the future? Probably not many. They didn't have to be told. This all started when Terry Bowden brought in a talented enough team to win the Big 14. I've never seen such one sided officiating as I saw in 2009. Later word got out we were going D1 and things got worse. |

Do the two schools that you are referring to have football and are those two schools currently D1? Yes and yes.... Does the two schools you’re referring to have very good football teams such as top 20 teams or higher each season? |
