Representing the interests of female professionals is dreadfully tiresome and fraught with difficulty.

In that spirit…

Memphis went from one of the worst teams in college football (for years) to one of the better non P5 teams in (arguably) the best non-P5 conference competitively speaking

Then they sustained continued success after:

* multiple head coaching changes
* almost constant assistant turnover
* and more

And all without non P5 $$$

If you’re an AD or president or booster in a P5…

Do you want this team competing with you for recruits and wins?

Yea, that kept the SEC from taking in Tx and Ok. Good point.

The conference needs better teams instead of fearing them.

It’s a thought exercise. “Spitballing” if you will.

Texas and OU have been down, especially Texas. Texas has been down with one of the largest FB budgets in the country.

I don’t think Alabama or LSU or basically anyone in the SEC is worried about adding those schools except maybe for Arky, ole miss and a handful of others. They aren’t coming in and handing out Ls. What they are doing is coming in with a lot of eyeballs for games and bargaining power for TV contracts.

Texas has been down.
OU? Are you serious?
They've won the last six B12 conference championships.
They've been to the CFP 4 of the 7 years of its existence.
Only Bama and Clemson have been to more CFP's.
They will absolutely hand out L's in the $EC.

lol
You always say WRONG stuff like this about Tigers football.
We were 56(ish) in 2019 attendance.
We are one of the top 3(ish) draws outside of the P5.
We do very well with attendance, given our G5 scheduling.

Bring your neighbors, bring your family, bring enemies, fill the stadium we have up. That will work wonders in all aspects of Tiger athletics.

This is what you get with someone who isn't too bright, doesn't care about facts, and is too lazy to even check.

Outside of Louisville there is no other program that we share a conference history and a rivalry with like Memphis. More history together in hoops overall but football has been heating up of late. You guys lead the series in football but we lead in hoops. Sounds like two programs that need to remain in the same conference together. Hope to see you in the AAC Football Chip game. Best of luck this season!

All of the stalking is starting to get a very creepy feel to it....

Hope we are conference mates again soon. Congrats to y’all. We do respect your program.

Just curious - do you have nut cases that hang out on Cincy message boards too?

So does Stammers get out of the doghouse when we are added this fall?
