AAC is going to 13?!
A poster on boneyard banter just said Tommy Tuberville was just on XM radio and said we're going to 13 but couldn't give any more info. Did anyone else here this?

Perhaps a non-FB addition to balance Navy?

Wichita State would a nice addition in the West to offset Navy.

It was Tuberville speaking though so the addition sounds like it could be on the FB side.....maybe Army has changed its mind?

Army has a standing invitation to join the AAC so that is why Tuberville might be saying 13 because he knows about Army for sure.

BYU's deal is up in 2017. The AAC would be looking at a big per school boost with Army and BYU in football.

I doubt anyone is coming until close to the new TV Contract. If anyone I'd be ok with BYU, Army, AFA and NM. I doubt I'd ever see it. Yes it's not coast to coast however, it's manageable from an 8 team Divisional or a 4 team Pod set up.

Anyway, they won't go 13 without 14 in tow.

RE: AAC is going to 13?!
I think BYU and Army alone would be perfect.

Pros:
Both highly recognizable name brands
Both would probably substantially increase the TV deal
BYU adds a very legitimate FB program to the AAC and "strengthens" the west
Army adds an easier opponent to "soften" the east
Would really solidify the AAC as a true tweener conference in terms of $$ and fan interest (the exposure, bowls and competition are already there).
Doesn't get too big with 16 members

Cons:
Kind of morally wrong to cash out on the Army/Navy game
BYU difficult to work with
14 is supposed to be a tough # to schedule

The addition of an Army or BYU are significant enough additions that it would mean immediate changes to the contract - they're both national programs - it's just like the contract will already change as Navy joins and then rolls its media rights into the conference.
