You've bought the lie. Hook, line, and sinker. 

It is a lie that USF would need quote "many years" to compete in p5. 

Did it take many years for USF to compete in BE. Our recruiting is on par with many so called power programs. Top of AAC is better than many power programs. Navy just destroyed Pitt. A team we were leading in 4th. 

You've been fed a media lie but the jokes on you because you bought it

USF could go in and compete in year 1 with 75% of power teams with our current talent base. Mack is one of the 10 best RBs in the country, power or not. 

The jokes on me? Really? Cool your jets pal, we have had one winning season in six. Being competitive in the BE is NOT a comparison. That conference had two good teams two  mediocre teams and four turds. Please don't compare the BE to the Big12, it does not work.

After seeing attendance numbers, tv contracts, and bowl performance this last season...

 

... The AAC is mediocre G5 at best.

I would say this conference is more than "mediocre" within a G5 perspective. Compared to a P5 conference it does not compare but it can beat many of the low level P5 teams. Indeed, we are the tallest of the midgets conference wise right now.

TCU wandered around G5 conferences for 10+ years (WAC, CUSA, MWC) then jumped right into the B12 and was ranked one of the top 3 teams in the country and won the Big12 conf within 3 years.  They also had a winning record and a bowl game their 1st season in the B12

Gotta agree that the AAC/BE is nowhere near as competitive as B12

They did go to a Rose Bowl prior to being and a power five conference

The shorter midgets beat us in all our bowl games...
