Memphis AD is a bad yelp review of the Big 12. 

Eff that. 

We need to worry about what we are doing. There could be and dare I say likely will be as good if not a better opportunity in a few years if we control what we can. You don't get stronger by complaining that someone else is going to the gym. You go to the gym yourself. We need to put on our big boy pants and get to work. Be proud of who we are and where we want to go. That starts with us as fans quitting whining about stuff that happened 10 years ago by no one who is even employed at USF anymore.

I don’t think anyone is mad at them specifically about what happened more than 10 years ago they are mad at them for the portion they have been here and that from those moments things have been on a constant death spiral and are objectively the worst they have ever been. These are very nice people but from a results perspective they are the embodiment of failure.

VPMK didn't hire zombie Strong. He hired Scott who is too early to judge. 

He didn't hire Gregory. 

We have an IPF with broken ground. 

We may just agree to disagree that VPMK isn't doing well. I personally think he is at worst neutral if not a major asset.

Are there really that many mad at MK, outside of you and some who shall not be named, for our current predicament? Kelly's done what he can in his short time here to try and get things righted, in the ways he thinks he can.

If the AAC revenue was higher, they would all maybe stay. The AAC would have passed the big 12 (8 ) if it could hold together. 

This is really a desperate move by the Big 12, and they probably will try and expand again.

It’s good for Houston and BYU, but Cincy and UCF are now on islands. 

 

How many fans from oviedo will really travel to Waco/Lubbock/Houston/Kansas/Iowa/Fort Worth? It made sense with UT and OU, but unless the payout is substantially higher, it's biting off more than they can chew. If the B12 gets pushed out of the P5, it's a disaster for them.

True but they are still an autonomy conference whose teams will make about $15/16 million more than we will.

Anyone that has the smallest amount of expectations cannot be happy with him at least not if they measure by results, it’s a directly declining line
