I think we could probably put together better schedules as an Indy, not worse. I agree the championship and bowl tie ins are an issue. Maybe they can be solved. Certainly we could have an “alliance” champion. And probably get at least one bowl tie in for that team.

Indy football isn’t ideal, but if it saves basketball relevancy, it’s worth it. I don’t see it as much worse than CUSA. Maybe even more interesting to fans

That is a lot of ifs with Army, ECU, and UVA. The VT series is stable for a bit but after that is done what kind of appetite will they have to continue it? Will the seismic shift in 1-A football have happened that keeps the P5's further isolated and more leary of playing G5's much less going to them? The possible scheduling alliance of independent football schools is hardly something that is compelling to me. As mehtastic as CUSA is, the conference does have tangible benefits that independence can never provide.

I'm all for doing something to help basketball and the other sports but if it means independent football then that something is a nonstarter.
