Will continue to monitor. Rumor includes that they are looking for at least one package partner to go with them, either Miami or Toledo.

have heard a really concrete rumor in the last couple of days that Ohio is definitively looking externally, and conversations are happening. Sun Belt seems to be where they are eyeballing. I’m not break the news first guy, I hate that stuff but it is solid enough to share.

Disband the conferences. Get the hell out of your contracts. If you can’t play for a conference title anymore you have no obligation to be in that conference. We need full independence with regional scheduling. Thats the only way this becomes tolerable.

Too many ADs are selling their teams short with buy game payouts. It’s not uncommon to see buy games below $1 million. $2 million+ should be the new minimum, and the entire G6 should be united on this front.

Per sources, Marshall has contacted multiple conferences about leaving the Sun Belt, and have an offer already on the table. They are also not the only ones. Most of the Sun Belt East is looking to jump.
Marshall has inquired about joining the American Conference with JMU. (per @Schultzycast)

There is a slew of realignment rumors swirling about after the JMU news. Schools include - Miami (OH), Liberty, Marshall, Appalachian State, Ohio, Toledo, UCONN, and a few FCS schools like Tarleton St. Conferences include - American, Sun Belt, PAC-12, CUSA I am very positive Miami (OH) will move. Marshall’s smoke appears to have serious. Liberty & Appy St have rumors, but I’ve been unable to confirm anything about them. I’ll continue to work on updates.

If top American teams are looking at a P4 move, hear me out:
Remember that time Boise State accepted a football-only invitation to the Big East (2011) but then returned to the Mountain West before ever playing a snap due to massive conference realignment that caused the Big East to fall apart as a football conference?

James Madison will join American no later than July 1, 2028, sources told @On3

JMU gets poached and reloads the next year, ready to contend for the SBC again. Marshall gets poached and spends the next two years reeling, trying to get back to winning. There is no reason we shouldn't be doing what JMU does. That falls on the coaching staff.

When fans say there’s no excuse not to win immediately in the portal era, this is what they mean. You can simply take JMU and send them to another P4 team and they’ll be doing this by Week 4.
If you hire a head coach from James Madison, you will become a college football powerhouse overnight:

Miami (Ohio), James Madison & UConn trying to join American Conference, sources told @On3’s @Brett_McMurphy & @PeteNakos. Despite overtures from those schools – including $30-$40 million offer from Miami – sources said league not expanding at this time on3.com/news/miami-ohio-jame…

The answer to P4 excluding G6 teams from OOC play isn’t a 9-game conference schedule that will only diminish self-fulfilling SOS metrics further. If it’s a flex-game approach (PAC-12), I see an argument. Otherwise, the best G6 teams should play each other out of conference.
