I think Benson wants a championship game in 2014. I think June 1st, this year, is his "deadline". The Sun Belt would need JMU to join by June 1, 2013 to give conference 12 for football in 2014 and minimum for championship game.appsfan wrote:With Liberty's AD going public about Sun Belt discussions, it allows Benson to use maximum leverage on JMU- join or let another Virginia school go FBS before you. Nothing is going to happen until after JMU's BOV meets on Friday. I wonder if a delayed entry (maybe 2015 instead of 2014) to the conference could be on the table? If JMU declines or stalls, I say move on to the next in line...
JMU, too?

Re: JMU, too?
Lets hope CUSA's "More the Merrier" strategy doesn't change anything. No telling how long ago this communication happened. NMSU and Idaho aren't on that map and WKU is.
