I suppose the question is, if we were still in the CAA would we have gotten fringe A-10 guys like AJ, Miller, Greene, Otis, etc. or would our recruiting classes look more like Whack, Dixon, Temara, and Abram?

Also, other than constantly beating up on JMU (which I am all for) our record against the CAA isn't all that great.

Yeah its certainly an interesting question. One that I'm glad we won't find out.

They’d be middle to bottom CAA.

Maybe if we got fringe A10 guys while being in the CAA we would be closer to be a power player in conference.

But having a bunch of fringe players and a bunch of CAA recruits in the A10..gets you what we got..mediocre records and a bunch of short stays in the A10 tournament.

I don't really care. I much prefer being in the A-10 than what the CAA is right now, crappy as our place is within it right now.

Six seasons from now, I hope we can stop making this hypothetical. I also hope to get out of the "kick them out of the conference" discussions when talking about how to improve the A-10.
