Leftovers of AAC join C-USA

This.. it's been mentioned several times and I'd bet money it's what ends up happening +/- a team or two. Don't really need a realignment thread for a while. Just have to stay relevant for 5 more years.

The Big 12 leftovers are not coming here. We will join the Big 12 leftovers under their contract. They have the access to the better bowls and television revenue.

You are likely right. Six AAC will join 6 B12 and then actually be Big 12

West: TT, TCU, Baylor, SMU, UH, KSU
East: ISU, WVU, UC, Memphis, USF, UCF

If 14

West: TT, TCU, Baylor, SMU, UH, KSU, ISU
East: WVU, UC, Memphis, USF, UCF, UConn, Temple

Tulane and ECU back to CUSA
Navy back to Indy
WSU back to the Valley

I do not think that is true as those contracts are almost always tied to a certain content of teams in the league which would likely move the bowl and media situation back to a new start. It just like a standard "material change" clause in a contract. Things like the name are property that typically sticks with the league, like in the case of the big east.

Easy choice for them.

For us....we need to determine when to give up the ghost of FB. How about...if we are sub .500 for the next 10 years we can the whole thing.

Does that sound reasonable?
