Also, UCONN paid a premium to get out of the AAC so they could be in the Big East for basketball.

UCONN
West Virginia

I honestly don’t think Army is a bad addition. Just don’t like the terms.

Army to AAC

"The American Athletic Conference has voted to add Army into the league as a football-only member, sources told ESPN's Pete Thamel on Wednesday, with the sides working toward the Black Knights joining in 2024."

Army will serve as a replacement for SMU, which is joining the ACC next year, to keep the AAC at 14 teams.

Why are some schools allowed to be football only but that is not a consideration for others? Either it is a policy or it isnt

If you wait two or three weeks to decide conf standings then you would have no time for conf champ game
