conference realignment
despite what many of us hope or think should happen, UAB is likely to get left out of any conference realignment mix. The Big12 announcing they will in fact expand hurts us in my opinion. If they waited to expand until 2019, which we originally thought was the case; we would've been in much better position to make a jump to AAC because we would've had time on our side to prove our worthiness. However now that its looking like this all will happen in 2017, I do not think we will have enough time to prove ourselves. momentum is strong in our city limits and our footprint, however from an outside view looking in, it seems risky for a conference to take us right now. Therefore, this leaves us in conference usa. I think eventually, conference usa and the sunbelt will have to partner and merge in order to survive.
Thoughts?
