Although other schools were mentioned by name, the closest we got was the nebulous 'florida footprint'. Houston, according to the exalted prognosticators would eat into / dilute an already crowded Texas recruiting market. BYU was mentioned but the LGBT stance isn't in keeping with the secular leanings of the non-championship game league. The 'florida footprint' was mentioned for recruiting purposes as the most palatable option. The 'back in our studio' guy said that the decision making process has no timeline, and could extend out to December. This benefits us greatly. If USF can win AAC and secure a Cotton Bowl birth prior to decision, I truly believe that USF will be one of the 4 chosen (along with UCF, Cincinnati, and probably Houston.

If we win the conference and the cotton bowl (and that is a big if), I don't see a reason why we wouldn't vault ahead of Cincy. Go Bulls! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if we can average 30 - 40k per game. Hopefully, the basketball situation drastically improves...

Olympic sports could not handle the travel to UCONN. It would be a nightmare. So your saying that teams making $30 mill a season couldn't handle it, but teams making $2 million can? Seems to me the AAC already travels between Texas, Oklahoma, and Connecticut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
