Maybe win 7, 8 games a year, and compete for the conference title once every 5 or 6 years, just like the Big East days, once the good teams left for bigger opportunities.

Did some research, and our friends are 61-49 since joining a Southwest Conference, going 40-40 in league play.

American seems to be a much better fit, especially if the goal is to win conference championships. I can't recall how many they've won in the Big XII (basketball or football), but I'm guessing it has to be less than or equal to Zero.

Old rivals exist in the American. East Carolina, Temple, Cincinnati, South Florida, Tulane, all teams we used to see on a WV football schedule. I think they could win the conference every now and then, but certainly wouldn't be a given.

I think those are all good points....maybe if Kansas gets a heavy punishment for being dirty they might have a chance at winning a conference title in hoops but chance for that glory on the gridiron!

yeah....back when the herdies showed proper respect to big brother......maybe the mu athletic staff should revisit those times and learn from them 😁
Nobody respects you. Even your wife told me you were an *******. Who am I to argue with her?

Hey, Tony: Pay no attention to Dumba$$ Dave, the orange cone wrangler. David (orange) Cone was humiliated on the Blue Lot by OTHER WVU FANS for posting that Ohio State had done nothing in basketball for 30 years. The Buckeyes have done a helluva lot more than WVU in the last 30 years, but Coney doubled and tripled down on his stupidity, anyway.

Seems like I remember OSU in a Championship game with Florida...didn't see the Mounties there!

I remember Marshall playing in Detroit and St Petersburg. Maybe you should jump ship and cheer for OSU.

That was what you took from that thread? Bless your heart. Your crack dealer is rich I see.

Right now Marshall can't even score or complete a pass in CUSA.

In last 6 quarters 29-0.

We were suppose to lose. Mini U favored. Shut out at home by a horrible Rice team that had only played 3 games. Beaten by UAB team @ Marshmellow land. Your 42-6 comment is freaking hilarious. Do you always grasp at straws when desperate?
