If the PAC is smart, and I think they are, they must be pulling out all of the stops right now to lure Rice/Memphis/Tulane/USF away from the AAC.
No other schools offer them anywhere close to what these 4 do. It would also kneecap the AAC, vaulting the PAC as the clear best of the rest conference.
If they can make the numbers work, this will happen. The SBC would have the pick of the AAC remnants. I think bringing in UTSA and ECU would work just fine.
