No, this is the inverse. The greater strides that have to be made to keep the AAC unnaturally alive will naturally feed the disgust that we are partly responsible for this abomination.

I been here with the program since day 1. I was part of the C-USA defense team against all the critics. Now I’m part of the AAC defense team and happy to see us reunite with more of our lost long C-USA friends. How can you not be excited about that?!??!

We were in C-USA for an entire season so that should not have been much of a defense you had to mount but either way the only teams I wanted to be friends with in that conference were TCU, Louisville and Cincinnati all of who are not in this conference and have moved to the P5; I also was not mad with Houston and Memphis but even half of them are now gone. The Conference USA we were in was worlds better than what is left of this conference and the AAC before even any attrition was not this appealing: 2003 Conference USA football standings v t e Conf Overall Team W L W L Southern Miss $ 8 – 0 9 – 4 No. 24 TCU 7 – 1 11 – 2 Memphis 5 – 3 9 – 4 Louisville 5 – 3 9 – 4 South Florida 5 – 3 7 – 4 Houston 4 – 4 7 – 6 UAB 4 – 4 5 – 7 Tulane 3 – 5 5 – 7 Cincinnati 2 – 6 5 – 7 East Carolina 1 – 7 1 – 11 Army 0 – 8 0 – 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also we got screwed being an independent in FCS. We got skipped over by Colgate for the playoff spot basically because we were not in a conference. I be damned if we go independent again. You didn’t have to suffer like us old school USF fans did. You basically jumped on Leavitt bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot help that I started USF in 1999, I do not know that we had many fans that didn't attend the University back then (kind of like we are back to now, so that's nice). 2001 we were independent and got screwed out of a bowl game but we went on the road and beat Pitt and it is one of my top three favorite seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
