You guys deserve it, 100 percent. No hard feelings from me. C-USA has been a sinking ship since 2005, and it has been a race to see who can get off first. It should have happened earlier.

You have outstanding leadership and did everything that could have been asked. Your donors stepped up and put in money to the facilities. Your fans kept going to games, even with bad teams. Leadership is what separated ECU from USM.

The fact that it took THIS long shows how focused the BE is on tv markets.

Good luck!

Thanks!

Thanks! I hope Southern Miss can join us soon.

Here's to hoping the Eagles are right behind us! I do believe we've got to cut into that lopsided overall record vs USM!

Yep. If anyone, I'd like to keep playing y'all in at least football and baseball.

DING DING DING DING DING

nailed it. This is what happens when you have leadership like ECU does...and when you hire a moron like Giannini.

Congrats, Pirates.

Welcome to the Dark Side ECU!!!

No other school in CUSA deserves to be promoted more than USM. Great tradition in football and a good rival for the Pirates. Hopefully, your day will come sooner rather than later.[/align]

Congratulations on taking a football-only membership and relagating your basketball to further mediocrity. Seriously, who's negotiating for you all?

"We'll offer you a football-only membership."
"We want all-sports."
"No."
"Well, okay." *bends over*

Man, USM fans are handling this much better than Herd fans. Marshall would be grabbing her ankles as well if she was offered this proposition.

Classy post Eaglenjx.

If There is any justice in this world. Boise and SDSU will join Tulsa and some other schools to reform a strong Mt. West. and the remaining Big East teams will form a strong East coast/southern Football league that contains USM and Marshall.
