Do we need them to boost the GPA of the conference or can we send them down to 1AA kinda like a MLB club sending someone to the minors

Big enough for the Oilers/Titans, what's your issue?
Big enough and has enough attendance for FBS certification, so whats your issue?

At least they can use the "smart school" excuse. They could be like state and have a small stadium and shitty academics.

Vandy to Big 12?

They have a stadium capacity over three times their enrollment. Not too bad.

You're complaining about the stadium's attendance capacity. Yet NFL is way more popular than NCAAF.

The NFL allowed the Oilers move into the place, so it must not be that bad.

It's sad how little their students care.

As a whole yes it is.. In the South East it's not.

They have about the same enrollment to stadium size ratio we do. Plus how are we gonna kick vandy out? They're smarter than us and do we really want to pick a legal battle with someone smarter than us.

I don't get this. Vandy is smart enough to know visiting fans will pack the stadium for the game. I think it's a genius move to have that large a stadium for them.

Nashville isn't Southeast. No matter how you try to describe it. Neither is Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky.

So back to stadium issue, Vandy has a respectable sized stadium due to demographics. But if you want they can expand to size of Rice's and put tarps over everything.
