I see realignment has transitioned into OCS banter...live on thread.

You knew that was going to happen.

Time to raid the MWC and separate ourselved from the rest of the G5. Boise State, San Diego State, UNLV and Air Force need to be added. Once we start offering all four will jump simply out of fear of being left behind.

We can't do that unless someone tells us that they will give us more money to do so.

Can we get rid of Tulane and Tulsa at the same time? Pretty please...

Tulane needs to stay as that is one of a fun road trip. Also academics and baseball ⚾️

The nation does not watch MLB baseball anymore and college baseball is not even in the radar screen for most people (I do love USF baseball myself though). Thus, keeping them around for that is not enough. In terms of academics I get that, but at this point it might be time to make push for programs that have more balance with athletics and football success. NOTE: I know this will not happen...just my opinion.

Give Tulane time and money and they'll come around.

Tulsa and ECU are odd men out. Could probably drop both and never miss them.

How much more time do they need? They been playing FB for 100 years. In terms of money, my guess is that their alumni are quite wealthy and the school has a pretty high tuition cost. I say off with their heads! As for Tulsa their oilmen must have paid off someone. ECU? Well they serve their purpose as the whipping post.

There are times like this, when our fans start talking about kicking teams out of the conference, that a great line from writer Dan Jenkins about the program in G'ville fights its way through the cobwebs of my mind .... "Florida has the arrogance of Notre Dame and the tradition of Wake Forest."

I believe Tulane went undefeated in 1998 wth Shaun King as their QB. They had a great team then so I would not count them out. Took Duke awhile to come around too. Tulane beat Houston and almost came back to beat USF. They have a nice new OCS. I don’t think we need to look down on Tulane anymore.
