What are your schools realignment options?
We discuss realignment options for schools that we didn't attend all of the time.

But what about realignment options for your school? I will start with mine.

1)B12: Our academic peer list includes Oklahoma St, Iowa St and WVU so this would be the conference to join with its rural college towns. We make a perfect travel partner with WVU only 2 hours away.

But this would first require Cincinnati to land in the ACC as they would be ahead of us in the pecking order for a conference move and require a stadium expansion to at least 32,000 seats (capacity of the smallest P5 stadium) to make it viable.

2)AAC: We're the logical replacement school for Cincinnati if they were to leave. Football stadium is expanding with a facility this year and the basketball arena which seats 13,000 is getting a 2 million dollar scoreboard upgrade. Academically we definitely cut it with more Fulbright scholarships than an current AAC school over the last decade.

But unless the AAC can grow its base revenue distribution from 3.5 million to at least 10 million per school it's not going to be enough to offset the increased travel cost and higher salaries required to compete in the AAC.

3)CUSA: Marshall has pushed for us to join and we've had what amounts to a standing invite for years. We have a basketball profile and budget that exceeds everyone in the MAC, SBC or any FCS school they would consider. If CUSA basketball starts to take off with WKU, ODU and UAB returning to form it becomes more attractive.

But so long as the MAC is stable and has a TV deal we wouldn't look at this. Buffalo could leave and it would have zero impact on the deal. If NIU and Toledo were to leave and the deal is close to renewal it might. Also we'd demand (because we can) Miami University to be added as a package deal to make it worthwhile. I think CUSA would agree to that demand.

4)MAC-MVC: This is a situation where the MAC loses more than 3 schools at once and has to either merge with the MVC with some of the schools joining it or add a large block of MVC football schools: Il State, UNI, NDSU ect. to stay in the FBS game.

But this to me sounds like a crapshoot as to whether the TV deal will be honored and/or G5 status is continued. Basketball will probably remain at 1 bid even if the MAC goes as far as to add Northern Iowa.

Ranking the options:

B12 (No direct path at present)
AAC (Wait and see how TV goes)
CUSA (Legitimate backup plan)
MVC (Desperado plan)

Lol, the OP wrote this extremely long essay and not once bothered to say what school he was writing about.

Whoever it is, they made a quick mistake in the B12 section, lumping Iowa State with OkSt and WVU academicaly. Iowa State is an AAU member and compares more closely with Mizzou than OkST and WVU.

Lol, the OP wrote this extremely long essay and not once bothered to say what school he was writing about.

Whoever it is, they made a quick mistake in the B12 section, lumping Iowa State with OkSt and WVU academicaly. Iowa State is an AAU member and compares more closely with Mizzou than OkST and WVU.
Ohio.

I know that Iowa State is AAU.

However Iowa St, WVU, Oklahoma St all are in our peer cohort for institutional benchmarking.

No MAC school is in our peer cohort.

New Ohio president was the former president at Texas Tech and is more gung-ho about football.

RE: What are your schools realignment options?
Boise St:

1) Probably not going anywhere.
2) Pacific division/pod for the AAC. We fudged up the first time. If the offer is on the table again (presumably with BYU, San Diego St, and maybe another), let's not blow this again.
3) XII stays together but feels obligated to expand, we might be on the list. Last go around, we weren't even a favorite.
4) PAC - if, and only if, they feel forced the expand and no power schools are available so they look the MWC/AAC schools. Even then, I think (in no particular order) Houston, San Diego St, UNLV, New Mexico, Hawaii, and Colorado St would be ahead of us.
5) New version of the MWC combined with FCS conferences. Power conferences split away taking with them the best of the rest (good markets, good programs, etc.) and we're left behind. Perhaps the MWC tries to add a couple/few Big Sky schools.

Gonzaga:

1) Stay.
2) Big East expands with a Western wing (us with BYU, St. Mary's, and maybe another like San Francisco).
3) Non-football member of the MWC.
4) Non-football member of the PAC.

RE: What are your schools realignment options?
What the heck, I'm bored

A&M: Not looking to leave. Theoretically could go to any of the other P4s but travel distances makes it less likely.

TCU: Could possibly get an invite to the SEC or ACC under the right conditions. B1G is likely out due to not being a research school. PAC would fit well (have gotten a ton of Cali kids since the Rose Bowl, apparently going to a school called "Texas Christian" is how you rebel against suburban Cali parents) but they'd have to get over the tiny but still present affiliation with Disciples of Christ (for the Divinity School)

RE: What are your schools realignment options?
Arkansas Tech

Only 2 possible or maybe three possible outcome.

1.Southland Conference, UCA would love to have another Arkansas school in the conference that is mainly made up of Texas and Louisiana schools.

2.MVC, Tech is not that far from Springfield, Missouri where Missouri State is located, but this is a long shot.

3.Summit League would spread the footprint to Arkansas. Oral Roberts is not really that far. Tech's football could slip into MVFC.

I hate to break this to you Domer, but the only way the SEC could call Notre Dame a cultural fit is to say that a Christian Private school fit the Bible Belt and that we both loved money. Of course the implications are obviously hypocritical.

RE: What are your schools realignment options?
(07-01-2017 09:59 AM)Kittonhead Wrote:  We discuss realignment options for schools that we didn't attend all of the time.

But what about realignment options for your school? I will start with mine.

1)B12: Our academic peer list includes Oklahoma St, Iowa St and WVU so this would be the conference to join with its rural college towns. We make a perfect travel partner with WVU only 2 hours away.

For Ohio, this is laughable, at about the same level as the "Buffalo to the Big 10!" talk around here in recent years.

The day the Big 12 invites Ohio is the day it is no longer the Big 12 in any recognizable current form, e.g., Texas and Oklahoma will be long gone, the Big 12 will no longer be in the Power club, will have an AAC-level media deal, etc.

And not that it matters, but when you say Iowa State, WVU, and OKST are on your academic peer list, is it reciprocal? It doesn't mean much if it isn't. E.g., I once saw a list of schools that said Harvard was their peer - it was about 20 schools that had them on their list. Problem was, Harvard only had two of them on its list, LOL.

RE: What are your schools realignment options?
Umass really wants to be in the AAC - and it is the only non-P5 that makes any sense right now (no P5 makes any sense for Umass unfortunately). If UConn ended up going Indy football however Umass may end up staying as an Indy too. A-10 basketball is not too bad, and we are trying to get our sea legs under us again. Now that Kellogg is gone, we may have a chance at returning to some sense of actual basketball???

RE: What are your schools realignment options?
My alma mater is CSU-Pueblo. According to DavidST, the realignment options are any and all DI conferences. According to my sources, given while enjoying steaks at the Rio Alba Restaurante in Buenos Aires, CSU-P is very happy in the RMAC.

BTW, the Rio Alba is a real restaurant and I have eaten there.

Interesting point

We'd have to give it a look if ND wanted in just because, but I can't say it's a foregone conclusion the SEC would vote in ND because they're absolutely not a cultural fit (heck at least the southern half of Missouri is SEC-like)
