Very interesting video. The UNT and FAU adds really are a bit confounding unless there's more than just speculation that SMU and USF are leaving. Or it could just be the AAC hedging their bets, but that doesn't explain why USF and SMU would support these additions. I knew we were the best candidate but its interesting to hear all the reasons why compared to other schools.

The short answer to that is yes. But the question is at what cost. In the future I would expect that we would have more home games with lower to mid-level power five teams. But now we’d have to sacrifice bigger pay day or lose scheduling winnable G5 opponents.
That was comprehensive. UAB was #1.
Attendance numbers were decent. I don’t know about that basketball financial improvement number. I believe our basketball attendance will go up.
