KU may be finding a way out of the burning building. 
 

 

 

From a USF/AAC perspective, I would think more chaos the better, so I’m hoping KU makes a move. If the little 8 hangs together, we need to mock and dismiss them as an inferior conference as much as we can, just like they did with the Big East back in the day.

I checked his account, and it all looks like unbiased objective statements to me.

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.

Did anyone else see on the crawl that the AAC Commish has denied trying to poach 3 - 5 teams from the Big12?  While the Big12 commish is reportedly the one who said it.

Yes, saw that.  Probably saving face at this point as well as covering the AAC's and ESPN's collective rear ends

Way to deny wanting 3-5 when he'll take the lot.

Don’t worry Kansas is trying to get the DOJ involved, because realignment is more important than the feds chasing actual criminals……

 

I know someone will say what espn did is a crime

Just not sure if any of those P5 schools want to call it a day and sink to our level…especially after being there for 15 years or more. They will fight hard to make sure it does not happen. 

I would think the huge loss of revenue would be a strong consideration...Now, if Aresco can cut a behind the scenes deal w/ TV( that he isn't doing...😉) for expansion including some schools from b12 ?? It would take a lot of dominos(teams, deals & other p5's) being set up in a perfect configuration so they all fell in line to elevate the AAC to the p6 inclusion. Maybe Aresco has the chops to put this type of thing together??? Personally, I would be very, very impressed and tickled.

Which brings us back to: Ok USF go win some football games, look like you are something. Time for us to start sprinting we've languished for too long in limbo...

ESPN might be able to calculate a certain money amount to shift more deck chairs on the titanic for a minute.

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
