The AAC needs to expand to 20 teams
Add Army and Air Force, the commander in chiefs tournament are all conference games (postpone the Conference Championship Game one week). Add Louisiana, Western KY, and Ga State. Become the largest G5 and a possible P5 conference. Four pods of 5 teams each play 9 conference games.
All of this would give the conference more visibility and perhaps a better TV deal later on.

They’ve already said if army joins the army navy game will NOT be a conference game. The commander trophy will not be tied into the conference. They like having 100% control of tv.

even tho it wouldn't be a 'conference game' the conference would still benefit. Exposure...Army and Navy have large fanbases...guys listening to games on ships whereever they are posted...maybe even US troops in say Germany, Japan...etc etc.
If Army will go for it...get them...Air Force too.

Let’s invite UT Arlington and Bethune Cookman too. We could go to 22! Seriously? Only add if it’s quality, and the last group we added weren’t quality.

Plus, Air Force already turned down the AAC recently. What would change their mind now that the league is even more watered down?

03-banghead That's what the P4 or whatever think about us. It is not a good feeling for anybody when they are trying to move up.

He started 3 threads in 30 minutes yesterday afternoon, and I'm about 90% convinced it was just to troll you.

Rice justified their place to me by beating Houston. I will never speak another ill word about them again.

Then it would truly be CUSA 2.0 or 3.0
