I was thinking yesterday that if CFB were ever going to get rid of the P and G designations and just make it equitable, now would be a good time. They have no motivation to do it but I can dream.

Remember, they have to pay for that OCS and their facility bonds, we don't. We lose some revenue by not playing home football games, but they not only lose the revenue, but also have to service their debt. Things are going to get tough for everyone very quickly.

There's some quality in those 6 teams with half of them making the NCAA tournament last year. There may be an opportunity to pull in a couple schools as soccer-only members. This is possible because conferences like the SEC and Big 12 don't sponsor men's soccer and schools that carry the program are in different conferences for the one sport. Some schools that fall under these circumstances that the AAC should reach out to (current conference in parentheses): Kentucky (CUSA) South Carolina (CUSA) West Virginia (MAC) Navy also has a men's soccer team that currently plays in the Patriot League.
