Formed in 1976 the Sun Belt Conference quickly rose to the greatest heights of collegiate athletics by sending a team
to the NCAA Final Four in the league’s first year of existence. Fast forward 36 years and the league again finds itself at
the pinnacle of collegiate athletics as a member of the 11-league alliance of the Bowl Championship Series.
Because of its status as a member of the Football Bowl Subdivision, the Sun Belt Conference has a permanent seat
s
r on the NCAA’s 18-member Board of Directors. As a result, the conference has a crucial voice on some of the most
e
y pressing issues in college athletics and will always have a role in the implementation of any future NCAA legislation
a
pl and guidelines.
The conference’s regional television partnership with Comcast/Charter Sports Southeast (CSS) and Cox Sports Televi-
sion (CST) enables live telecasts of Sun Belt events to reach millions of households. The addition of volleyball, base-
ball and softball to the conference’s television package has resulted in more national and regional television exposure
for the league than at any time in its history.
w
e
vi
e Prominent Sun Belt alumni include NFL Hall of Fame football player “Mean” Joe Greene (North Texas), former All-Star
r
baseball player Luis Gonzalez (South Alabama), former member of the United States Senate and House of Represen-
tatives John Breaux (Louisiana-Lafayette) and country music superstar Tim McGraw (Louisiana-Monroe).
