[QUOTE="Merch Frog, post: 891371, member: 12"] @TexasCard: We're working on the arena. When the stadium is done, the arena is next on the list. Joining the Big East sped that up. @Westoverhillbilly: Thanks for the recap! Outstanding! I'm a little concerned with this "have and have not" league idea gaining momentum...and CDC supporting it. I love that we are now a "have", but it wasn't long ago when we would have been considered a "have not". So if this idea happened 10 years ago, we'd be "stuck" in the inferior league and would not have had the opportunity we had to rise up the ranks. UNLV sucks now, but should we forever keep them from having a shot of getting out of the dumps and becoming a BCS program? SMU is gaining momentum, should the NCAA kill that momentum by sending them to a lower league? Sure, they might be able to compete amongst their peers, but what if they get to the point where they are clearly dominant in that league? Will they have the chance to move up? It's almost as if they need a relegation system like in European soccer. If you suck for 4 years, you get bumped down a league. If you kick [Craig James] in the lower league for 4 years, you get bumped up. It'll never happen that way, but I'm just worried that the have-nots will never have the opportunity we had. [/QUOTE]
