App in football and now Davidson. The push by some to join the OVC now seems real silly. The OVC is an awful conference. Their football and basketball programs are really low rent. Hard to fathom that so many Moc fans were pushing for membership in such a backwater league. What a collection of forgotten towns. I am so thankful that Dr. Brown used common sense when deciding to remain in the respected SoCon. Hard to believe that anyone with a brain would have pushed to join such a crappy league as the OVC.

Damn! I'll admit that the Southern Conference is a better conference than the OVC, but to consider the teams low rent, backwater, and forgotten towns, is a little under the belt! It wasn't too long ago that UTC would have love to have consistent wins against MTSU, Western Kentucky, and Murray. Now that MTSU and WKU have parted ways, the league has suffered a great deal. And honestly, right now...if TSU and UTC played in football, I wouldn't be too quick to bet on the Mocs.

Hey I grew up in Chatt and think in many ways it is a great town, but to say that Nashville is a forgotten city is a little absurd! I was hoping that UTC would join the OVC, but in my gut and in the back of my mind I knew joining the OVC was a bad idea. I grew up following the Socon, and... right now...is a much more recognizable and established league, and UTC will benefit from the accomplishments of its members.
