He'll know there are no more seats at the 'big boy conference' table. He'll know season ticket sales and some fan interest for football will suffer. However, I'm thinking if the realignment scenario comes to pass, the only thing that will build any kind of fan interest OR momentum will be to fire Skip and completely start over. I guess the question is, do we have the cash to buy Skip out and does DW have the balls to make a real change?

So, give it 4-5 more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm numb to all this at this point. That goes to our performance on field and conference realignment. Football has stopped being fun for me. 2. Having said that, so long as the Little 5 champ still gets to have guaranteed access to one of the 6 upper tier bowls, maybe it's a good thing that Rutgers, UConn, and Cincy leave. It'll make it easier for us (once Skip is long gone) to actually win the conference and make one of those big bowls. 3. The really really bad thing will be Rutgers, UConn, and Cincy leaving, Skip staying, and us losing to and watching UCF go to one of those bowls. It will happen. Wait and see.
