The Sun Belt is expanding. They have currently invited, and has been accepted, Old Dominion and Southern Miss from C-USA. Next to be targeted is Marshall and James Madison (up from FCS). Nice Regional rivals.

I think they have closed the gap between them, the American, and the MWC
They should get more $$$ in the next TV deal too.

Proactive is the best plan.
Stay green and always look to grow.
Those who think they are ripe are really starting to rot.

Yes, and given three of the big names in the AAC are jumping to the Big 12 the Sun Belt may be on the same level. I think Conference USA is the conference hurt the most by the latest round of expansion. C-USA was a pretty solid basketball conference back in the day but I probably couldn't name 3 or 4 teams now. |

Marshall has now joined as well. Absolutely amazing how the Sun Belt has surged forward so much, putting themselves on par with the American and the Mountain West.

And to think back in the spring of 2020, C-USA commissioner said the idea of them and the Sun Belt merging was not going to happen. I bet they wished they had now.
