At some point, you need to schedule 2 for 1 or even 3 for 1 or never get have a shot at anything, which is where we are now.
    But, but, but, but, but we HAVE TO have 6 home games, or the World will end. If we don't schedule "insert MAC school here", we will be guaranteed a losing season, kill season ticket sales and be the laughingstock of all serious people.

    Good God, man. Are you crazy?

    Geography. They’re the opportunity and footprint into Houston metroplex. I’d take Rice over TxSt seven days a week and twice on Sunday not to mention losing the Hoax.

    AAC West plus 2 more.

    UTSA
    Rice
    North Texas
    SMU
    Tulsa
    Wichita State
    Memphis
    Southern Miss
    Tulane
    Louisiana


    The only possible conference lineup better for us would be a P5 league.

    Turning down an invite to AAC West would be one of the worst decisions in the history of this school.

    Again, SMU is leaving. Word is Tulsa is trying to get into the MW and Rice and Tulane are potential PAC targets because Arizona, Arizona St., Colorado & Utah will eventually be I the Big 12. Oregon, Washington and Stanford will likely get into the B1G so that leaves Oregon State, Washington State and Cal in the PAC along with some G5 AAU schools. The PAC and MW will then merge to a certain degree. This will all happen in the next 10 years.

    Accepting an invitation to AAC would be the worst decision in the history of the school and EXTREMELY short sighted! The SBC is seriously in a position of power in the G5…stay the course!

    The iron was hot and we sat on our ARSE! We are more worried about what bathroom everyone uses.

    Well, the 4 teams they added were ahead of us on the list. Now, knocking off Texas would have helped but the door is not completely shut. My worry is the Big12 will move west and add Arizona, Arizona St., Colorado and Utah. That will basically kill the PAC and improve their brand.

    That would be one hell of a trip from Arizona to W Virginia!
