Let’s wait and see if this is a blessing or curse. I’m not sure yet. I think he sees the writing on wall and is trying to make a dignified exit. The conference has been a revolving door and the product is diluted. I’m wondering if he is the best the conference can do, or will they be able to find someone who can bring relevance and revenue.

I do believe he is the best the AAC can do. Maybe the AAC goes after C-USA’s commish. In any event it really does not matter to you & I. Why you ask? Because USF should be long gone to another conference soon…….

I think he did fine for the most part. However, him leaving after bringing in the teams that they did doesnt feel so good.

CFB is a mess.   He's been a rational voice and advocated well for a G5 conference.  Ala the P6 gimmick.  But I don't think USF has benefited much from this conference promoting us.   We have been further demoted it seems.   Now the MWC is strengthening.
