Someone smarter than me and with more time on their hands should research what is the average age of a first-time D-1 Men's BB HC. I'm curious how many years is typical to toil away, move multiple times, etc. and grind your way to your first HC opportunity? Whitford was 16 years and Lewis was 20 years in the making. That seems like an eternity to me but maybe it's average. This would seem like a perfect assignment for UJ but if he's busy perhaps Sherm can have one of his kids check this out?  |

Variety of interesting info there. I saw this right off: "For the purpose of this study, high-major conferences are considered the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Big East, Pac-12 and SEC; Mid-major conferences are the AAC, A10, MVC, MWC and WCC; Low-majors are the remaining conferences."That's the reality, of course, but I thought we were still technically mid-major. |

How would ESPNU4+ fill their weeknight timeslots without MAC football? All the games from the North Macedonia women's lacrosse D-league are over by that point.
And we would lose our....you know....NATIONAL EXPOSURE.

Yikes, but let's be honest, they're not wrong. I'd probably bump Sunbelt to mid major, though. |
