Where is the SLC champion? At least four teams opted out, and they still aren't in.

Apparently, the folks in the NIT are smarter than the suits in the SLC.

Well, unfortunately the CIT was cancelled for 2021. The CBI, however, gets announced on Tuesday. If invited, can Nicholls afford to go?

Apparently, the SLC champion is not playing any post season basketball. Shocked, I tell you. Absolutely shocked.

Correct. And, Lamar soccer did lose so we are tied with them for first.

Before SFA exits the SLC for the final time, it would be nice to get a final tally on the total number of SLC Championships our entire AD program has won.

I know it is at lease over 100 at last count, I lost track.

Looks like HBCUs are the plan for expansion

The Southland is on life support right now. I have no sympathy for those clowns in Frisco.

I don't see the SLC grabbing SWAC schools. They (SWAC) just executed on a masterful expansion adding two schools (FAMU and BCU) What would the motivation be for grambling and southern to join a league with zero media rights. The SWAC is "supposedly in the process of renegotiating their media contracts and it sounds positive. The buffoonery clown show that somehow recommended adding UIW and HBU is totally lost. The SLC is on life support , for good reasons.

I've seen 3 or 4 folks who knew about Texas 4 WAC plans ahead of time who say that the SLC raiding the WAC is extremely unlikely to happen.

I doubt it happens. Seems more likely that they're going to have to further raid D2.

SLC raiding the WAC?? That's the first time I've heard that nonsense.

Forgot an S. Southland raiding the SWAC.

Though to be fair, I will not stand in the way of the Southland stealing Seattle.

I get doing it virtual. In person would be brutally uncomfortable.

Say what??? The Soutland Conference is adding NJIT as a tennis member.

From the release:

"NJIT's men's and women's tennis programs will participate in the Southland Conference Tournaments and will be eligible for the league's automatic berths to the NCAA Men's and Women's Tennis Tournaments. The Highlanders' tennis programs will not officially participate in the single round-robin league schedule during the regular season, and its teams shall be placed in the seeded tournament bracket through a process to be determined."

The SLC has had issues seeding teams that play. What could possibly go wrong with a process TBD?

Such a slap in the face to the Southland schools.

"Hey, I know you're not playing any of our teams, but why don't you play in our conference tournament so that you can possibly take away their spot in the NCAA Tournament."

The SLC is desperate and they deserve it. When Burnett dropped that pile of $__t on us with UIW and HBU, the whole SLC mojo (what little there was) went down the tubes.

NJIT's nickname is the "Highlanders", which is ironic since their location, Newark, NJ, is at sea level. Go figure.

I'll be so happy when we put that pigsty of a conference in our rearview mirror.

Good grief! Look at all of that stuff they had in their apartment(s). Drugs. Weapons. One or more of them must have been drug dealers and not simply users.

Report: Texas A&M - Commerce to join the Southland Conference.

Done deal. We will see how they mange the four year transition to D1. They have the minimum number of sports with six men's and eight women's. Of the fourteen, six include XC, indoor track, and outdoor track. No baseball. Added softball in 2015, when Ivey was there.
