My critique of the move to the USA. It's mainly negative.
Marshall now, mainly, plays squads that are located from far away. The team's fans don't travel well, and it also hurts home attendance because folks aren't intrested in the USA teams coming into town. The MAC has squads that were closer, and many that were in or near the region so there was a lot more interest from the fan base.
Granted, if Marshall could start competing in the USA, then attendance will go up. Or, even, a move to the Big East. They can't compete with the Big East right now, but it would whip up a lot of fan support plus there are plenty of regional Big East teams.
