Thought you guys would be interested in this topic on a "sec message board". Of course, I posted for USF, and took my shot at ucf. So, feel free to send your alcohol to me. Talks about conference expansion for big 12/sec.  My name on there is pioneerbasketball.

 

"Memphis, Cincinnati, USF/UCF, Houston. Those are the biggest potential targets for conference expansion right now. Plenty of arguments could be made for or against any of them"

Just out of curiosity...when it comes to expansion, has there been / is there / ever heard of any teams pining to join CUSA, MAC, AAC, etc.

Or are FCS schools pretty much happy where they are? Do Charlotte & Southern Miss think in terms of the SEC as well?

Southern Miss think in terms of the SEC as well? 

I can tell you that won't happen. MS. State and Ole Miss would block this, and it wouldn't do the SEC any favors to add Southern Miss. The 2 highest rated So. Miss games this year had 594k against nebraska and 511k against ms. state.

I think most USF fans and probably G5 fans are expansioned out at this point. I'm okay with where the American Conference is going, basically a Big East Light. We have credible teams in almost every sport across the conference, outside of the money its not that bad of a situation.

Personally, I would rather grow the AAC into a P6 conference and have them share their money with us, but unfortunately I doubt that's a real option.
