I truly believe that the @SunBelt has caught fire. The hoops are horrible, but maybe not for long. And the football rep is getting much better. We could build something in the Belt.

The Sun Belt has benefited from several seasons of stability. The foundation is strong. It can only be destroyed from within.

@AStateFanRules The rivalries are also a lot more fun than I expected them to be coming from the SoCon where App had 6 schools within a couple of hours of campus.

@Gwaltineer Terrific point. Yeah, there's heat between the programs, generated by all kinds of friction points.

@AStateFanRules Disappointed none of my expert twitter analysis made it in the article Wolves Den deserves better

@TheJayBir It's understood that all Howler articles shamelessly plagiarize your penetrating insight.

It’s also okay to RT

@AStateFanRules Excellent read. Agree 100% The schools we added are definitely better than just about every single one that left. We have work to do but I would take being in our conference right now over being in 3 out of the other 4 G5 schools.

@AStateFanRules The Sun is Rising!

@AStateFanRules I think the Sun Belt should go for the throat and add North Texas, UTSA, Jacksonville State, and Charlotte so we can get of C-USA once and for all

@AStateFanRules Unpopular opinion: I like the Sun Belt. It could do with some improvements in marketing and more investment in better refs. But I love the rivalry’s and member schools are a fun mix
