Seriously? 

I'm not saying that we should say no, just a different outcome that could happen.

You are kidding, right?

Everyone has been discussing hypothetical scenarios, this is just another one of those. Yes I know that it is extremely unrealistic, but it is still a possibility.

If you are USF do you accept the invite  and take the $$ if the Big XII announces that they want USF to join, or do you decline knowing that the future of the Big XII is on strings with the possibility of the AAC replacing the Big XII as a P5 conference?

That's an absurd reason for not accepting an invite ...... holding out for the B1G is a good one, though.

When it comes out Monday that ESPN and fox paid big12 NOT to expand, usf needs to do some soul searching

we either need to think outside the box or shrink the fb budget

buying into arresco's "big6" violation is asinine and waiting for the b5 to share is naive

 No and no to shrinking the budget. The program is finally rising again. 

Unless you want to win 9 games and cancel the program like USF on the west coast.

Congratulating us for NOT being selected.

He may be wrong, but I don't think that's what he's suggesting...

So let's look at it on a personal leve. You are making $50K a year, driving a 10 year old Honda then someone offers you a $1 mil a year plus a brand new Ferrari, but you would consider not accepting because it is possible in 20 years someone may offer $5 mil and a Lamborghini?

Really?  

There is a reason the schools have been positioning themselves and going all out.

You take the higher paying job, you can always go back to the lowering paying job.  However the buyout money with 4 teams leaving with an early exit could be a financial windfall for UCONN in the above scenario.

Pretty sure the Pres and AD at USF don't think that is a possibility.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
