They have told you WHY, you just don't accept it. They think it puts us with more peer schools and gives us a chance to win championships. I'm not endorsing, just responding.
The article quoted above said
"The league this year grew to 16 teams, and as James Madison and Delaware moved to FBS (Delaware is in a transition year),
UR wasn't encouraged by what remained in CAA Football and the scheduling rotation that would keep them from annually meeting preferred opponents. William & Mary evolves into a nonleague opponent, and both sides are committed to continuing the rivalry.
UR jumps to a more stable, smaller league with comparable schools and perhaps a clearer path to league titles and FCS postseason qualifications. "
This rationale is fallacious. We can't play the better rotation from the northern schools, so we switch into a different league, with a lower quality of play. We have no reason to complain about the quality of play in the CAA, until we dominate every team, including Hampton and Towson. Don't look now, but we could very easily lose to both Hampton and Towson.
For one, I will miss the competition the CAA offers- NOVA, W&M, New Hampshire, Albany, Elon, Rhode Island, Towson, Stony Brook, Maine and even Hampton.
