Nice if it were to happen.

If this happens, I'd rather stay in the AAC than jump to the B12 (assuming the TV revenue is equal). We'd be far more competitive

 

In that division, I think we'd be fairly competitive with 3 of the 5. Upgrading the talent to compete consistently with Oklahoma and Okie State would take some time, but having the certainty of being in the playoff group would help with that. And we could compete with Iowa State, Cincy and WVU consistently from jump street IMO.

Eventually all of this greed will decimate the national fanbase.  The more exclusive they make the national championship process, the less fans they will have.  I am a USF fan, and I'm not going to pi

Everyone involved in managing our pathetic program over the past 10 years should be fired out of a cannon into the bay.

Disagree. 

 

Just like moving from CUSA to the Big East, moving from the AAC to the B12 should bump up our recruiting, especially with Taggart on board. 

Plus we'd get a higher payout tin the B12, meaning everything from being able to pay the coaches higher (and less likely to worry about them leaving if successful) to more revenue for facilities (OCS, anyone?)

Did you read it? They're talking about bumping up the whole conference, not just us. We get bumped up AND moved to the B12.

 

If the whole conference is getting bumped up, AND the TV money is the same, I'd rather be in the AAC than the B12

Agree with Dogma. 100%

I'd rather see us play Texas, WVU, TTech, TCU and Oklahoma at home. Awesome.

The Big 12 would help us sell out the stadium routinely. Tulane, ECU, Houston, not so much.

I agree, let me help you finish that list of school that won't help us sell out:

 

Memphis, SMU, Tulsa, Cincinnati, UConn .... (basically everyone except, Navy and UCF)

 

For drawing a crowd -

 

Texas, Oklahoma > UCF

 

Ok, State, TCU, WVU, K State > Navy

 

Everyone else in the Big 12 > Everyone else in the AAC

TV money has NOTHING to do with being bumped up. AAC will always get less tv money compared to the other 5.

Plus staying in the AAC, the TV revenue wouldn't be the same - just look at the disparity now.

Are there people here seriously disputing a move to the Big XII?

We could be competitive in the Big 12. Texas has been in a slump the past few years. Oklahom St and OU are very good, k state had a good year, I think we'd be middle of the pack until recruiting picks up.

It's a totally different type o league though almost every game is a shoot out, very good offenses and weak defenses comprise the Big 12. We'd probably have one of the better defenses in the league with our FL talent.
