Looking back, it probably shouldn't have been such a surprise that Georgia State's stay in FCS would be short, even though they were full members of the CAA in all sports.
The writing had to be on the wall in February, when a gushing feasibility report by Georgia State business school grad Russell White all but told Georgia State to jettison the Colonial Athletic Association, home of the toughest football conference in all of FCS, and join the conference that had been their home before, the Sun Belt.
In the whirlwind courtship that was Georgia State's wooing by the Sun Belt, they were promised it all - more money, more "exposure", prestigious bowls.
In other words, they were seduced by the Big Lie that refuses to die.
