This conference is such a short term fix that a name like this makes a lot of sense. No reason to look for a permanent, geographically appropriate name until we know we're in a stable conference all the schools want to be in.

Plus If you had a Nike sponsered conference licensed name conference like Nike Elite Conference andmaking us all Nike Schools and sporting all NIke Merchandise, could be there test schools with Good Exposure for them on Espn and CBS, and think what that would say to the kids and recruiting, and thus being Hip....Someone run this by Alan Graf and get it over to Mike Aresco...The World Is Ours Memphis...

Why would anyone name a conference 'his'? In the words of Ophelia Ford, "That's just dumb".

How about Reebok American Conference and have either Hooters or Bass Pro Shops be a co-sponsor.

RE: Hey what about this for a name?
I like it because this damn conference aliment suff is all about money. The only way we as a conference can compete with the BCS of this world is MONEY! It would be a big visual aid for Nike and think they would poor in the amount of money's that the big 5 gets. This will be what you call thinking outside the box for a conference trying to compete with the big boys.

RE: Hey what about this for a name?
I like it because all of this conference aliment stuff is all about money. This would be a big time visual aid for Nike and I think that they would poor BCS type of money into such an opertunity. For a conference like TBN trying to compete with money and exposure like the big boys, it's not a bad chance to take. This is called thinking outside of the box for a conferecne trying to gain the respect, money and exposure the BCS's.

P.S. Someone with the know how please foward this to the person who has the power to bring this idea to all our AD's.
