You're wrong here, my man. And nobody puts Tulsa in the corner.

how am I wrong? they are routinely outrecruited by sun belt schools and their games do indeed have a high school feel
Didn't they got 10-3 just two years ago?

With everything our programs go through and all rivalry aside, why would anyone want to see another program fail. Don't get it.

Got screwed by refs twice or we would have been at least 11-1. Can’t say how we would have faired against a tougher bowl opponent.

i provided quite a few reasons why these schools are a legit detriment to the conference. are you able to provide any points to the contrary on how tulsa provides value to the other schools in the conference? or just petty insults

Our recruiting is fine, you guys get a bunch of overhyped Florida kids that don’t always on out. Evidence, Tulsa beating you twice in conference championships. We do provide eyes for the conference as our games in prime time are watched at a decent rate when we’re good and not buried on a subscription only channel. Finally, Tulsa does, in fact, have room to grow it’s brand. We have a large Metro, and if we finally get a team that can take down some of the big boys we play (Texas) etc... we will get many more butts in seats. So far, the timing has been off. Our 2016 team would have destroyed this schedule and probably played for a conference championship.

No you have not . Winning today has zero to do with realignment. Ask Pitt, Syracuse, Rutgers and Maryland. Football can turnaround one year to the next. That is the least important component. Kind of like going 0-12 one year and then 6-7 and then 13-0. The people who actually make decisions looked at the full picture and decided on the schools currently in the AAC. There is much more to it and thankfully they didn't make knee jerk reactions like you are making. They are Tier One research universities. They also get you Tulsa and New Orleans media wise. Also because of travel 12 with 6 on each division works better. Probably a whole host of behind the scenes reasons as well that we will never be privy to.

i completely agree on the winning part. i place potential much higher than recent performance. rutgers and maryland added critical markets to the BTN, pitt and cuse have a history of elite MBB programs. 4 awful comparisons.

No, you're just seeing what you want to see and are thinking your business decisions would be better than those paid millions to actually make these business decisions.

And yet in football were as mediocre in their last five years in the Big East as you claim Tulsa and Tulane are now.

As a Memphis fan, I view Tulsa and Tulane football games as competitive. Tulsa usually gets back up quickly. Tulane just seems to stagnate this year but here's hoping they improve with experience.

Nobody's getting kicked out. The only schools that haven't been mentioned to throw out by some posters at some point are Houston, Cincy, and UCF.
