That writer needs a history lesson.
Let’s start with Bowl appearances
Tulsa - 21
East Carolina - 16
Hmmm USF - 10
Not bad for USF considering about half the FBS teams get invites since they have been in existence.
Next we will start counting how many players ECU sent to the NFL before USF football was born... this may take awhile.
To be continued...

It is a tongue-in-cheek article. Those guys at TDS think they are funny, they rarely are...

Tulsa and Tulane have been the most aweful teams in football the past 10 years. ECU have better football. The fan support is better at ECU even if they lose lately. Problem with the AAC, Tulsa and Tulane were terrible picks to begin with. Arkansas State, La. Tech, UTSA and North Dakota State are better than those 2 in football and fan support.

Hey David St, post some actual numbers to back up your nonsense.
Last decade for all seven teams year by year:
Records
Attendance
Budget
Revenue
Then we'll talk basketball and Olympic sports.
Then viewership.
Then history.
Then academics.

Thank you my bro-fessor.
People get emotional around a divorce. I am sorry to see UConn go and the move worries me. I hope it works out well for you all. Seemed like we were all pulling in the same direction and making progress, wish we could have kept climbing the mountain together.

Tulsa has three 10-win seasons in the last decade, and finished ranked two of them.

For the record, much of what He writes is satire-acle in nature. Colin I seriously doubt is really pushing this. Notice some of his points where just funny and dont really have a basis in anything.

The writer makes the point that Temple was thrown out of the Big East so throwing out Tulsa or ECU should be considered to be thrown out of AAC.
In a way, USF also got kicked out of a then BCS conference as schools such as Louisville, Syracuse, and Pitt left for ACC and Rutgers for BiG.
Maybe the writer should focus on USF's future, its positives and failures.
USF opposed UCF for Big East membership and now, UCF has surpassed USF every which way, including a very nice on campus stadium and 3 NY6 appearances with two victories over Auburn and Baylor. The question for this USF writer shoud be: Why have we (USF) failed so miserably?
And why is it that the AAC schools so adamant about kicking out certain schools like Tulsa, Tulane, and ECU are the one's most adamant of leaving AAC for B12?
Since the writer also singled out Temple, let's take a closer look.
Temple was AAC Football Champion in 2016. USF has never won a conference football championship.
Now let's take a look at Temple's winning football % in conference play versus USF since the conference was formed. Temple has the 4th best winning percentage. USF? 7th? Goodness! Gracious!
1. UCF 732
2. Navy: .675
3. Memphis: .644
4. Temple: .625
5. Houston: .607
6. Cincinnati: .579
7. USF: .518
Now let's do Temple and USF for men's basketball.
1. Memphis .669
2. Cincinnati .641
3. Temple .639
4. Houston .602
5. Wichita .571
6. Tulsa .557
7. SMU .525
8. UCF .503
9. Tulane .483
10. USF .457
11. ECU .437
Given its advantages, it appears that the most underperforming AAC team is USF. Maybe this is a topic this particular USF sports writer may want to ponder in a future column. Perhaps the writer should start by calling Temple and asking them how they built their successful FB and BB programs.
