I never said such words. I feel while we are still a G6 and have an easier path, let's take advantage of the easier path. Many portal kids want money, but many want a national title as well. Those the players we need to recruit in addition to developing our current talent. 

ok, just making sure you agreed that the we would be better off elsewhere.

Moving up puts you in position to make more money. Now with the NCAA looking to allow schools to pay players directly NIL $ for non educational expenses, the rich will get richer. Let me know when a non Power 5 school wins a National Championship. It may be easier to make the playoffs playing in the minor leagues at the moment (that may very well change), but I would argue to have a sustainable program with a chance to win the playoffs you need to be in a Power Conference. 

USF would jump in a heartbeat if offered. They want out of the AAC, you know that.

the only reason they would jump is for the money.

like I said it's more difficult to win when moving up conferences. watch what happens to oklahoma.

stop with the power 5 nonsense. first there is only 4 now and second the big 10 and sec are leaps and bounds higher than acc or big 12. there is a power 2

and yes I understand that the odds are against an aac team winning it but it's not impossible. I've never said probable only possible

I bet we have a better chance winning a title while in the aac than vandy or many other p2 programs.

we would only be better off financially. certainly not competitively.

I share this sentiment. That needs to be our recruiting pitch. It's a 12 team playoff with 2 possible slots for G6 teams.

yeah if we became a program that is regularly in the playoffs then that will certainly attract some talent. more so than say a middle of the road sec or big ten program let alone acc or big12

I trust Rivals since that's the highest one.

And All of them knock down our recruits when they commit to USF over a bigger program, if we were in a P5 and bigger name our class would be ranked even higher than it is.
