They's pretty much pull in the same recruits.

You honestly think the academies football programs are a waste of tax payer money? You need to do some research on where and how tax payer money is REALLY wasted. (like billions that goes to countries that arent to fond of us) But I wont get into that.

If anything, those 3 teams should be the last to go down to FCS... Send down teams like Ohio State, Alabama, UNC, and any other team that violates the rules. Make it work like European soccer relegation does.. and yes they relegate teams that break the rules.

Yeah, I think it's pretty sad to get rid of Navy, Army, and Air Force. They are, if not, the greatest Rivalry combination together in College Football by far. You shouldn't even think about moving them down too the FCS.

But hey, it's his game. Let him do what he wants. But he did base it off "what should happen" and that's where we all disagree on with him.

Furthest trip is Boise State... Still much closer than 3-4 Texas trips and a Louisiana Trip every year.

That is true. No LaTech now and all those additional Texas schools do not help.

I meant if you wanted to add those 4 teams and have the accurate conferences for the WAC, MAC and Sun Belt. I was a heart defect away from being a Marine. My younger brother was a soldier, my older brother in the Air Force and my Dad and a cousin was/is in the Navy. I have created the Marine Corp Academy and added them. There are bigger waste of taxpayer money, yes. I agree. I was thinking they would be a better fit in FCS and dominate every year at that level. Me personally I can live without 4 more teams that don't belong in FBS - including half the Sun Belt, Arkansas St., Buffalo, etc.

Right, and there is less travel. I know Colorado and Colorado St are close by, but in the Big Sky travel time would be cut down considerably.
