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

No because that would be a fireable offense. If USF were to say no thanks to Big 12 invite, the next school would jump at the chance.

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?

BINGO! But, throw in that you WILL get that $1 mil for 10 years, and it's still possible that you're going to get the $20 mil, then you can buy your own Lamborghini.

If we get invited, we take the invite.

If we don't, we try to build the American into a P6.

It's really that simple.

So much truth in this. 

It really is that simple.

Which do you think is more difficult...getting one conference to include USF or getting five conferences to expand to six?

If Twitter, Facebook, and Netflix want to jump in on transmitting sports digital content, I think becoming party of the P6 becomes easier. They'll be ready to throw some serious scratch at the AAC.

We've actually discussed this about jumping to a failing conference and the consensus is that the AAC could easily be a failing conference and you just can't say no to the massive increase in money. End result is it is better to get a lot of money and have a conference fail than not get the money and have your conference fail.

The latter. Adding one team to the mix is preferable to competing with another conference for a playoff spot.

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.
