Two things can be true. The Valley is a better league than C-USA - but also not better enough to be a major needle mover.
Bingo.
Some of the posters here seem to not realize that.
I'm aware of where the MVC stands in the world.
If Missouri State fans are going to be annoyed that people poke fun at the decision to joining CUSA, a revolving-door league where teams fight to play in the Bahamas Bowl where the payout is so low you end up paying them to play, they may want to back away from the message board.
But also, three things can be true:
1. The MVC is better than CUSA
2. The MVC isn't better enough to be a major needle mover.
3. Missouri State doesn't need an MVC-level roster to compete in CUSA. Hell, MSU finished 9th last year and they beat Sam Houston State - the CUSA regular season champ
