I hope so, hope realignment is put to bed for a while as well. Truth is though, we have some programs that are way more than a few years from realizing anything resembling potential, especially in basketball. A lot of it has to do with facilities and some of it has to do with very young programs. Teams that could turn the corner on any given year in my opinion is as follows: ODU, FAU, NT, UTSA. ODU gets the stadium done, albeit small, could have them fully set to explode, awesome arena. FAU and NT have the facilities in football and need success to breed a fanbase, FAU needs an arena, not sure on north texas arena state. UTSA has the support for football but the basketball arena sucks, we have seen it already, one good year brings it back to what it was in football. Teams that have a ways to go: Charlotte, FIU. Charlotte is extremely young and stadium is extremely small although its new and nice but it does have a good arena, an expansion would help them in football and hope it happens soon. FIU, shew, stadium isn't finished, terrible for broadcast and the press, same issues with arena as UTSA and FAU. So in short, there is a lot of work to be done.
