me to a major cfb site that would allow me to advocate Marshall as a member of a P5 conference?

Look at their bona fides......other than the Huntington School of Beauty Culture is there a finer educational institution than Marshall on 4th Avenue?

A massive fan base in that area though not a majority in said area.

Many, perhaps the most, moral victories over their opponents through the years.

Overcoming one of the most despicable conspiracies launched against them in order to keep them down by any school in the history of fever swamp cabals. And by you-know-who.

As an advocate, I'm going Big Ten first, SEC second, ACC third, and the Big 12 last but not least.

But as a counter, would those conferences fear the advent of a MU membership that could alter dramatically the power structures in those leagues?

Regardless, I'm going to bat for the Herd as I always do.

Back to back to back ahead of WVU in the polls. Your opinions here do not matter to anyone
 
Will the ears petition the American Conference for inclusion, once the Big 12 collapses?

I have always thought this back to back to back smack was very weak considering that MVU is 0-12 against WVU in football. But after the last couple of days of baseball RPI smack when MVU is 0-2 this year against us and attendance smack when MVU is at 48% of our attendance, I realize that is the best MVU fans have. Yes 1 out of 10 rankings had MVU ahead of WVU last year. The other 9 rankings for some reason are only valid when it suits MVU (see baseball RPI above). Enjoy those moral victories because MVU cannot beat WVU on the field, the court or the diamond. It is all you will ever have.

One cannot lose to a team.... one is dodging!

So we are 3-0 in the above sports this year against MVU. The only one we did not play you in was football where we have only 3 out of conference games. I am sure if Marshall wants to come to Morgantown, Lyons will schedule the game. As for basketball, I expect we will see the game renewed in the next few years. That gives you three or so years of moral victories before the beat downs resume.

If Marshall really wants to do something to benefit the State of West Virginia. they should book a series with University of Charleston or West Virginia State. These two schools are only about 45 minutes from your campus. Give them the thrill of playing a big-time game

I like this....Moo U is always asking the Flagship to stoop down to their level. Asking....did I say asking? I mean BEGGING.

So, why doesn't Marshla stoop down, like they ask us, and play Concord, UC, Fairmont State, etc....It's good for the state...RIGHT?!

What are they afraid of?

Playing a team with a pulse.

MVU had a SOS ranking of 236, so playing a lower division team should not drive it any lower. Really is it possible to go any lower than that?

Marshall used to play UC in the 80's and 90's in basketball until UC started beating them. State beat Marshall's arch-rival Morehead State in football in the 90's. The Herd isn't about to set foot on field with the Jackets when they currently dodge Morehead in football.

Maybe Marshall should shoot for an end of the season tilt with the Cardinal Conference All-Star team? It would draw a bigger crowd than any of their other home games.

Good Lawd son you're as dumb as Dave
 
Bahahahaha. You clowns literally played WV State and you are bragging about it on a message board. So sad.
Hahahahhaa

He puffed out his chest when he posted that. Probably had a little giddy up in his step when he walked away from the computer. Just sad.
