    USF and Tulane are cultural fits in the ACC. The others aren’t.

    Who happens to be agreed Williams, former Cajuns brother. I guess Marlin slept on him and thought he was a shoe in.

    If they were fits, the ACC presidents would have considered them. Tulane and USF have kept their name out there by using media consultants, beginning with the Big 12. It's a smart thing to do, but it's simply keeping their name out there.

    Same as Rice. Some very wealthy alumni (hell, WE have some very wealthy alumni), but how many care enough to help support athletics?

    I don’t think they even get a look. But those two fit the profile.

    Let's say some or all of this happens. If all of these teams (SMU already going, Memphis, Tulane, USF, Tulsa and ECU) go to the ACC.

    Here is the remaining teams in the AAC and question of who if any would you consider for the SBC.

    FAU
    UTSA
    Rice
    Navy
    UNT
    Charlotte
    Temple
    Army (new member football only).

    Here are my thoughts; try to add UTSA and Rice to the West and Charlotte and FAU to the East.

    SBC West would consist of:
    UL, Troy, USA, USM, Texas State, Arkansas State, ULM, Rice and UTSA
    SBC East would consist of:
    Coastal, App, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Marshall, JMU, ODU, Charlotte and FAU

    UNT to the West and Navy to the East could be added to make it a 20 Team conference.

    We aren’t in the same conversation of wealthy alumni when compared to Rice or Tulane.

    Naw, we’re good.

    If all of that happens, all we need to do is add UTSA and Rice and move Troy to the East.

    Yes, please. That would be enough. Not interested in Charlotte or FAU.
