Seems like the best possible landing spot.

This works, rich private school sport in the Northeast footprint

well done

Perfect.

"Cincinnati, East Carolina and Temple as full members, while JMU, Florida, Old Dominion and Vanderbilt will compete as affiliate members. South Florida will begin women's lacrosse competition in The American for the 2024 season."

Nice company to keep!

Any word on the other 2 sports?

Not yet, but Bourne said he expected the announcements to come in these next few weeks.

Yeah I get that, but here are last season's final rankings in the AAC:

8 Florida
18 Temple
21 Vanderbilt

That's just about the strongest conference at the top this side of the ACC, which wasn't happening. The other conference arguably stronger in women's LAX than the AAC? The MF'in CAA. And there was no way in hell.

Plus, the AAC is G5.

Best possible landing spot.

I’d be willing to bet you’ll join us and Liberty in the Big East for Field Hockey.

Our women’s swim & diving will probably join the men in the CCSA. No clue where you’ll end up but there’s probably plenty of options there.
