Who exactly in any position of power in aac do you think remembers him in any way that would be positively impactful or views him as a difference making asset?

I do believe ACC not AAC. Go check his resume and come back with your weak ass smack

Are you saying that UCF was ripped off in 2017?

I have a difficult time believing that. I believe their strength of schedule was in the 70's. We may have been their biggest win and our strength of schedule was in the 90's. 

If you're looking for a team who should have been in the playoff that year it should have been Ohio State.

I mean the way the playoffs were only 4 schools. They should have had more playoff spots. The P5 gets preferable treatment compared to the AAC. I don’t think they would have won the playoffs but I think college football is not good to only have 4 playoff spots

The same thing with Tulane last season. They pretty much got ripped off with the current playoff system. Next season we will have a better playoff format

Yes it was because he basically had to change his coaching philosophy to save his job. He ranks as USF’s 3rd best coach in my opinion behind Leavitt & Holtz. He was wise to take the Oregon job

This argument is ridiculous, was CWT a good coach? maybe, maybe not, Was he a better coach than CSH if you compare careers maybe not.  Did CWT take the trash that CSH left and turn it into two of the most successful years in our history, his last year and CCS first year, yes.  Holtz took a good team and made it ******, CWT took that ****** team and made it good, end of story.  I am questioning if you guys actually followed the team back then?

He had a vision when he came here on what he wanted to run and it took a while to get the pieces in place, including Kinnan. The first full month he was here he got Q on campus for a visit .... and it wasn't to run a Harbaugh offense.

Great answer .... They're reporters, not rumor mongers.

It has nothing to do with those ne'er-do-wells; it has to do with the relevancy (worthlessness) of the information being circulated.

you don't get the NY6 games without beating their weak AAC opponents.

How many NY6 games has WVU played in since moving to B12? What about Miami since moving to ACC?

Fact is we will give up an easier path to the playoffs for more money. Just like every other team that has moved up including UCF.

Yes our regular season games will be against tougher opponents but we are more likely to finish with a mediocre record.

You wouldn't have to tell anybody that we won the AAC because the National media and NY6 games would do it for us.

I have every game circled on my calendar with plans for attending WKU and maybe one of the Texas games.

I agree that if things are set up where there is an opportunity for a prize for the tallest midget then ending up with the record that does not jeopardize that is the preferred outcome so that you can actually position yourself for something of value. 

I also recognize that the MWC is going to be a firm contender for that one spot for the five minutes that it will exist and that with continued expansion and a budget arms race that the P5 will need the whole pie and decide the 14th team in the country needs that spot more than the 25th team that has the 100th toughest schedule in the country. 

The games themselves are not valuable and if winning is all that matters no matter how low the competition, why not move down as far as possible and get the easiest path? (because no one actually believes that)
