I never thought I’d be looking forward to mini-docs about semi-obscure NCAA conferences… but this series has been amazing! This has quickly become one of my favorite channels
@@TimothyFitchI mean in its form today it’s nothing, but when I was growing up it was a great conference Imo. Ima USM fan, n tbh I think it was maybe the best G5 conference back then before everyone left in the 2000s.
Funny how ESPN and NFL Films used to put out content in a similar style and now their entire format is just trash and clickbait. You’re doing great, dude. This sort of stuff is great.
W uab, been rooting for them ever since they came back. Unironically, the football program getting shut down was the best thing to happen to it, ever since coming back UAB has been way better than before the shutdown.
Thanks for making this video. I remember being a Freshman at UAB when they announced they were shutting down the football program during finals week. The libraries were empty because everyone was outside protesting the decision. I'm glad they ended up reversing the decision as well as the subsequent success under Coach Bill Clark, who will forever go down as our most important coach.
I hope Kennesaw brings the triple with them, it's weird not having an option program in Georgia these last few years since Tech and Southern went to more standard systems
I remember my sister joining protests because she was a student at the time the UAB football program was being dissolved and she was pissed. As it is worth noting that last year before getting the death penalty they went to a bowl game and looked like they were on the up (many of the players went to good schools after that and some even went to the NFL). So when they cited money as the issue most fans and students thought it was an excuse for other petty reasons but thankfully they continued to protest and others pressured the board to reverse it decision (Nick Saban called them out as well). But the thing was they came back and came out swinging which is a good thing. Because it showed that you can bounce back from the death penalty in football (ironically after this SMU started playing better).
Excellent job. I was actually accepted into a PhD program at Memphis on the very day they played for the National Championship in 2008. It was unthinkable to start the day without an alma mater who'd played for a national championship in my lifetime, only to end it seeing my soon-to-be school barely lose the NC. I even taught a few of those players the next year. Well...that's a stretch. They didn't exactly show up for class. Why bother when you know you're entering the draft, but you have to pretend to be interested in school for a brief period. The NCAA is so smart.
As a proud JSU fan definitely glad to see someone talking about smaller conferences. Everyone knows that Paul Bryant Jr tried to kill UAB football. My dad was a member of the inaugural team back in 90’s and Bill Clarke coached him in HS so UAB football is and will always be something I care about. The whole state knows that Jr despises UAB and that he’d do anything to use his dads name to get what he wants. At the end of the day the blazers have moved to greener pastures and hopefully the Gamecocks will continue to do well in the C-USA. Great video keep up the good work!
I fondly remember watching Cusa football as a kid in the early 2000s. They had some great RBs. Guys like DeAngelo Williams (Memphis), Chris Johnson (ECU), Matt Forte (Tulane), Damian Fletcher (Southern Miss) and Anthony Alridge (UH)
apparently University of Delaware is moving up from FCS to CUSA and I had never heard of CUSA, thanks for making this video it was very informative! I hope UD can springboard with a few years of good recruiting and successful play into a higher conference but I'm excited for UD to be regarded as a real team
I'd love to see a video on The American, they seem to me like the primary "Minor League" to the P5 Conferences, filled with schools with P5 dreams, and probably the most prestigious non P5 conference (that's FBS) maybe tied with the Mountain West. They've also had a crazy revolving door recently.
And they're about to go to another CUSA title game with a win today, so it's looking like they're gonna keep at the top of the conference. I just hope they never leave without MTSU. Where they go, we should go. 100 Miles of Hate can't end.
You know that old Grateful Dead lyric, “What a long strange trip it’s been.”? That line, of course comes from the Dead’s classic song, Truckin’. But you could also use that line to describe the short, but wild - and strange - history of Conference USA. I mean…41 MEMBERS??? Of course, they all weren’t in the conference at the same time. But still, that’s a LOT of members! Excellent video, however, by Lucas. Great job as always. 👍👍
Nice video, Thanks. As a Houston cougar alum I have followed the league since its start and really enjoyed a lot if the games. Although somewhat diminished, it is still a fun league. Keeping travel expenses down might be one of their biggest challenges since they are so spread out, but there are plenty of ooc opportunities close to each school, so staying at 10 might benefit them.
Great video! Big fan of your videos after coming across them. Would be great to get a history of the NIT tournament if you wanted to. Thanks for the videos!
Outstanding take on the brief history of the conference. But I'm curious, do you see C-USA return back to at least 12 full members, so that they won't look like a small conference in terms of membership size?
My poor Dawgs of Louisana Tech. Never closing the deal on a conference championship like we did in the WAC. Getting left behind as usual. Several days late and even more dollars short.
God help me, I love the group of 5. Doing the lord's work by giving us football on weekdays. Bless them. And great job on these videos. Really enjoy learning more about their history.
Virginia Tech did not elect to go elsewhere. It was told it could not join since it could not bring its football team (which was in the Big East). The split was acrimonious and the Hokies were given their NCAA shares as compensation. VT joined the A-10. Its only other option was the Colonial as the ACC and SEC both said no. (The Hokies also replaced the Metro logos on their basketball court with A10 logos as it marched through the NIT that year).
I recall when the SWC folded in 1995ish...the big boys Texas, Texas A&M went to Big 8, followed by Baylor & Texas Tech, both w/ state political support, creating the Big XII. The remaining SWC teams Houston & Rice wound up in the CUSA & TCU to the WAC. Now, from the mid-90's to the late 2000's, Baylor was dreadful. Football - Couldn't beat anybody and basketball - terrible off field incident during the Dave Bliss years. I felt sorry for the Baylor Bears, and at the time thought they should have been a member of CUSA, where they'd be competitive. Fast forward to today, Baylor is among the best in basketball, and proven it can be quite competitive in football. If fact, the rise of the Baylor football program is the most under-appreciated tale of this century, largely because it's clouded w/ the Art Briles era issues.
Baylor is so weird in football. The most inconsistent program by far. They follow up their great seasons with absolutely horrible seasons only to be right back in a few years. Truly weird
As a fan of one of the charter non-football members of CUSA, I have to tell you that the schools that originally left could not wait to get out the door. The best thing that happened to them was the ACC raiding the Big East. The Big East just barely hung together, as the ACC intended to kill it off. As there were a mix of football and non-football schools in the BE, they had to make a deal. Louisville and Cinicinatti came in as football members and Marquette and DePaul got in as non-football members. USF was an afterthought. They were originally invited in as a football only member so that the conference would have a team in talent rich Florida after the ACC had pirated Miami. Then when it could not get Notre Dame, the ACC took Boston College instead and USF was invited in as a full member. They were always the weird outlier in the Big East. The BE was a basketball-centric conference, and USF mostly sucked. I think they had one good season. And they were nowhere near anybody else. The East Coast schools were all much further north and the Midwest schools were even further away. The original CUSA was a conglomeration of dissimilar schools. The non-football mostly Catholic and smaller schools had nothing at all to do with the large state football-playing universities. It was crazy to think that Marquette and DePaul were in the same conference as ECU and TCU. It was often referred to as Conference Hee Haw or Confernece Rube Goldberg. The second iteration of CUSA was probably the best, with a dozen regional mostly public football schools located in about the same area. It was a Southern second tier conference which could attract some interest and had a nice TV contract, though of course much smaller than the Big Five. When the ACC raided the BE again, it once again failed in its attempt to kill the conference. The BE added three good basketball schools and became what it was originally intended to be, a basketball-centric conference of mostly private schools (entirely private before UConn returned.) It has been great for the BE, as it has continued to produce great basketball teams without the complications that come with requiring football. Unfortunately, CUSA is a victim of circumstance and geography.
I feel like with FCS and independent schools like Kennesaw State, Sam Houston State, and Liberty joining there will be more stability. They just got into a conference at the FBS level and probably aren’t planning on moving anywhere anytime soon. Yeah there might be some better options out there, like the Sun Belt, but they haven’t gotten to that level yet. Kennesaw State and Liberty in particular are two very large and very quickly growing schools. They have great basketball programs and up until recently, for KSU and SHU, have played great in football. These aren’t backwater FCS programs they schools with 40,000+ students who are looking to bring it to the next level. If the C-USA can just keep these school in there they will have a great chance to improve overall.
My USF Bulls ended up playing only 2 football seasons in Conference USA due to having to start as an FBS independent first and getting called up to the old BIG EAST. Too bad we weren't there in 2002 because I think we could've won the conference if we were a football member back then.
I wish we didn't have to stay in that conference as long as we did. Happy to have landed in the Sunbelt eventually. The inner politics there were horrible and leadership has often been weak. It's nice being somewhere where the conference commissioner actually visits schools and has negotiating power
C-USA is the only conference in the FBS where none of the original members are still there far as I know. If you're a team playing in C-USA, you don't initially plan to stay there forever
Ive lived near Marshall my whole life and have been a student since 2018. I loved the early days of CUSA, but the last few years were awful. The Sun Belt is by far more fun and with MUCH better TV deals. I remember Judy Macleod signing a TV deal with a company responsible for TV screens on gas station pumps lmfao. Miserable conference now.
Sun Belt pretty much said “no” to the former defectors in MTSU, FIU, and WKU. They booted NM State from football a while back. UTEP is too far from the bulk of the conference. LA Tech would likely be blocked by ULM/ULL. SHSU by Texas State and Kennesaw by GA State. Liberty would just not fit at all culturally with the conference. That leaves Jacksonville State. South Alabama and Troy could block them as well, but I think the temptation to have a team in the recurring rich Birmingham area would be enough. They are also rivals with Troy from their FCS days if I remember correctly. If GA State bolts to the AAC, I could see Jacksonville State and Kennesaw moving up tho
@@nickgrondin5417 Moving anywhere from Conference USA to the Sunbelt is not at all really “a move up” but more accurately put a more going sideways move. And for what? I honestly can’t remember any of the Sunbelt teams being promoted to higher conference levels in their entire history as have the majority of the Conference USA past members. You speak of culturally like a real knowledgeable source which I highly doubt in any case of the real world reality, so let’s just isolate anyone we disagree with must be your unacceptable motto. 😂
Delaware will now join the CUSA in 2025,they are the first team the will pay the NCAA a $5 million dollar fee to move up from FCS to FBS which was previously only $5,000.They will be the 11th full member after Kennesaw State which will join in 2024.
Such outdated content. No mention of Delaware of Missouri State. It’s almost like it’s impossible to keep up with something as simple as conference realignment.
one could have seen that from the date it was posted, but at least I did accurately predict that those schools would be at the top of CUSA's list for expansion candidates.
@@lukeontheplains nope. You called it with Delaware and Missouri state. This is truly the best realignment content out there since I’d doesn’t jump at every rumor like on X. And I also think Tarleton State is going to make the jump in a year or two and put another feather in your cap.
I'm pretty sure that's a picture of former senator Doug Jones at 8:28
It is
I saw that and I was like “wow Paul Bryant Jr. looks a lot like Doug Jones”
Just found it last week and have been hooked ever since
I was literally thinking that lol
I never thought I’d be looking forward to mini-docs about semi-obscure NCAA conferences… but this series has been amazing! This has quickly become one of my favorite channels
Couldn’t have said it better❤️🔥
Same thing here
same this channel is great!!
C-USA might not be P5 but hardly would I call it semi obscure. Something like the Big South or MEAC would be semi obscure.

Loving these and also politely requesting a history of the Missouri Valley Conference.
WKU winning the most conference titles of all schools since 2014 and getting left behind during alignment was insane.
it’s cause the sun belt was still salty about WKU, MTSU and LaTech leaving
And they're about to go to another CUSA title game with a win today, so it's looking like they're gonna keep at the top of the conference. I just hope they never leave without MTSU. Where they go, we should go. 100 Miles of Hate can't end.

Would you ever do videos on FCS conferences? I would love to see a CAA video
You gotta cover some FCS conferences like the Missouri Valley and The Big Sky

Whats that tune at 7:35?
Trying to figure it out too so familiar but idk what it’s called
Found it, it’s when Johnny comes marching home
I wish we didn't have to stay in that conference as long as we did. Happy to have landed in the Sunbelt eventually.
The inner politics there were horrible and leadership has often been weak. It's nice being somewhere where the conference commissioner actually visits schools and has negotiating power
Bring Missouri State to the CUSA!
Was hoping for a bit on the LA Tech AD that voted against Louisiana and now Louisiana is in a much better situation
Let’s go Marshall
Can you do the ACC
C-USA is the only conference in the FBS where none of the original members are still there far as I know. If you're a team playing in C-USA, you don't initially plan to stay there forever
I’m glad anytime my alma mater is mentioned in a video :)
CUSA was beat in the mid to late 2000s. Case Keenum got the all time passing record at that time.

Saving the SEC the big 12 and the ACC for last I see, smart move, I predict the American conference video next
Now adding that UTEP is joining the mountain west in 2026. Ouch
Yes but Delaware and Missouri st will replace them
Another banger
That’s now Paul Bryant Jr, that’s former US Senator Doug Jones…
cant wait for my KSU Owls to finally play FBS
C-USA is really poaching the ASUN. At least, that’s what it feels like as an ASUN student.
Do the mountain West!

Honestly, C-USA should merge with teams going to the Sun Belt Conference and the other teams going to the MAC.
