Kansas leaving the Big 12? KU to new conference reportedly picking up steam - Saturday Down South

 

 

From a USF/AAC perspective, I would think more chaos the better, so I’m hoping KU makes a move. If the little 8 hangs together, we need to mock and dismiss them as an inferior conference as much as we can, just like they did with the Big East back in the day.

Did anyone else see on the crawl that the AAC Commish has denied trying to poach 3 - 5 teams from the Big12?  While the Big12 commish is reportedly the one who said it.

Yes, saw that.  Probably saving face at this point as well as covering the AAC's and ESPN's collective rear ends

Way to deny wanting 3-5 when he'll take the lot.

Don’t worry Kansas is trying to get the DOJ involved, because realignment is more important than the feds chasing actual criminals……

 

I know someone will say what espn did is a crime

I saw that…what an f’n waste of time. Another politician sucking up for a few votes and press attention.

Just not sure if any of those P5 schools want to call it a day and sink to our level…especially after being there for 15 years or more. They will fight hard to make sure it does not happen. 

I would think the huge loss of revenue would be a strong consideration...Now, if Aresco can cut a behind the scenes deal w/ TV( that he isn't doing...) for expansion including some schools from b12 ?? It would take a lot of dominos(teams, deals & other p5's) being set up in a perfect configuration so they all fell in line to elevate the AAC to the p6 inclusion. Maybe Aresco has the chops to put this type of thing together??? Personally, I would be very, very impressed and tickled.

Which brings us back to: Ok USF go win some football games, look like you are something. Time for us to start sprinting we've languished for too long in limbo...

ESPN might be able to calculate a certain money amount to shift more deck chairs on the titanic for a minute.

That's a good analogy which conjures an image.....
