If we are going to continue to play in a crappy conference, we can at least do it on a more regional base. The Metro areas gig is up, proven by the latest pos contract. Time to push for a change boys.

Memphis
Middle Tn.

E.Carolina
Ga. Southern
Troy
S. Alabama
La Tech
Ark. St.

If ECU and Memphis refuse, then add ULL, and ULM.

I would really work on UCF, USF, Mem, and ECU however, reality says as long as the tV money is better in the AAC, they ain't going anywhere.

8 conference games/4 OOC - Schedule your big games as you desire.

that's about how I expect it to shake out in the end.....and that would be just fine with me too....

I just don't see the AAC schools making the jump. I'd like to form a new conference with the best of Sun Belt/CUSA but that's probably not possible given NCAA rules.

East: UAB, Marshall, WKU, MTSU, App, Georgia Southern
West: USA, USM, LaTech, ULL, Arky State, Rice

Agreed Memphis and ECU wouldn't go for it but I would be all in on this conference line-up. Not sure how Rice would feel about it with them being sort of on the proverbial island but wouldn't mind seeing either Georgia St or Troy.

Accordian to the C-USA "bored", all we's doing is CRYING and beating a

We should be hap-hap-happy to be in Crap USA and take our punishment..

The market programs we brought in didn't make the SBC any money either.

We'll see how important markets are when the AAC is renew'd.
