We have to pick up our game in Fball and Basketball before we get a serious look. No signature wins to hang our hat on so far.

Absolutely correct. We have done zero in accomplishments department after we moved to FBS. Winning that terrible bowl against that god awful Easter Mich might be something for us ODU fans but on a grand scale no one gives a squat and that isn't something i would say we have accomplished with a straight face. Bobby effing boulder and jiffy lube jeff better step up and get things done if not we will get used to mediocrity for ever.

That really has little to do with it. It has more to do with athletic budget and similar sized schools and similar academics (with the exception of the private schools with regard to enrollment).

You might be correct but i was talking about performance in the top 3 sports. We haven't done anything to be proud of at FBS level and that might not play directly into conference affiliation but its something fan base can get excited about and we fell flat on our bellies in that segment.

5 AAC teams have women's rowing + 3 associate members. Norfolk to San Diego/Sacramento. Is there like 1 event a year? Are these virtual competitions using a Wii?
