Good point, NY Crusader. In NY, Stony Brook, Hofstra and Monmouth were on SNY frequently during the bbl season, far better than ESPN+. W&M utilizes Cox. That’s in addition to FLO. The CAA also had a...

Good point, NY Crusader. In NY, Stony Brook, Hofstra and Monmouth were on SNY frequently during the bbl season, far better than ESPN+. W&M utilizes Cox. That’s in addition to FLO. The CAA also had a...
There’s no sour grapes from my perspective - more shock at the rationale put out by the UD Prez and AD. That along with new list of conference mates are what’s laughable. I’ve always admired UD but I...
It sounds like a G5 playoff or the larger money sucking, more low interest G5 bowl schedule. Crappy choice.
UD fans on GoHens spend all their time now bashing FCS and the CAA. It’s obviously a...
Idaho did - others might follow depending on how long they can continue to bleed money in a rotten economy. Plus others in FCS have not bothered to jump but certainly could have (Montana as example)....
It sounds to me like G5 just got demoted to D2.
Not sure who actually has their head in the sand. This news was not some upgrade for G5.
In reality, FCS is untouched by this and will remain...
That’s a nice pick-up for the Tigers. Refreshing news after all the recent implications from some UD fans that somehow you have to join some limp G5 league to add some nice OOC opponents.
Navy...
I guess that’s one way to spin it but it seems G5 programs are going to be forced to play in their own yard, not exactly the “land of the big boys” that most of the move-ups were looking for. There’s...
Not sure how everyone defines elite but the CAA has 6 members that rank in the top 100 or close of national universities from latest rankings:
W&M
Northeastern
Elon
Stony Brook
Delaware
Drexel...
I did read it and thought the premise was ludicrous - that joining this confederation of schools was somehow going to raise the interest of potential students in Florida and Texas - as if those...
This isn’t GoHens where alternate views are not allowed. It sounds to me it’s your Prez and AD are the ones spreadin bull.
I don’t mean to pick any of the UD fans here. I just think it’s part of what’s wrong with college athletics today and a huge mistake at a respected rival. I can’t believe anyone with a map and...
Your AD said it was about money ( which you seem to be running short) and marketing. Delaware was also one of the most outspoken against the CAA’s adds into North Carolina. Someone needs to get their...
Part of the collateral damage of this absurd conference shift. I wouldn’t be surprised if they just cut the program. Unless their football program immediately wins into top 25 status, hard to see how...

8 CAA games
Campbell is closer to Raleigh than Kennesaw to Atlanta.
I’ve seen your jokes and like them. You keep them light over there.
Agree, nothing but respect for Virginia schools which is certainly reciprocated toward UD. My point was the distaste for Campbell as example while then joining a league with Kennesaw / come on.
This isn’t Gohens.net where you have to tow the narrative or get attacked. Between Tresolini and GoHens, you can’t pretend the attitude toward southern schools wasn’t mocked. It’s there for anyone to...
I don’t agree with that. UD fans and press mocked the CAA expansion into North Carolina. So you have issues with Campbell and NC A&T but fine with Kennesaw and Jax state? Not buying their desire for...
The problem with Towson is a fan base, or lack there-of. They typically average about 5,000 per game. Despite the FBS attendance requirement being dismissed, no level headed administrator is going to...
Steamed? Maybe embarrassed. The MAC isn’t perfect but for a Northern/mid Atlantic university, it sure makes a lot more sense than CUSA. I wouldn’t mind if W&M made a run if an open spot. But they...
Sorry Carib but I think FCS will survive without Delaware. At least we’re still playing traditional rivals and violins on Saturday vs a bunch of made up schools in a conference covering three time...
I’m not sure I’d credit Idaho or UMass with the balls to move up. They both seemed idiotic and remain so.
Wacky and faraway FBS conference? Isn’t that the very conference we’re talking about, CUSA?
I like these games UD is announcing but I think this has gotten a bit off track. These are OOC games....
I’m sure but suddenly having league games in El Paso and Ruston Louisiana will have more than triple expenses. If I were a UD fan, I would be more concerned with the impact on the fanbase if you...
If they were joining the ACC, sure. Im not convinced CUSA is going to suddenly explode new dollars into the University during the period of Bidenomics (the irony).
Wrong place, wrong time. That’s...
