Pretty much the only way there not getting in is if they dont have a average home attendence of 15k which is a regulation by the D-1 . They intend to expand there stadium to 22k from it current capacity of 17,500 . There average attendence this is 9,500 so hopefully they continue to stay in that range so they wont be accepted . If they are accepted they wont be eligble for the Sun Belt conference title or a berth into the Sun Bowl untill 2009

They'll be able to get around the attendance issue. They can play home games vs. Louisville or something on a nuetral field that holds like 50k and that will be all they need.
Don't really see any problem with them joining the sunbelt, it's not going to affect anyone else.
