I'm not sure the ACC need for USF is great. Can FSU or UM get out of the GOR? Won't be needed soon either, even if the ACC wants USF.  I'd be inclined to gamble on a move up if the PAC offers.   

Completely agree with you, I would gamble too, but, only if the money is considerably better AND they find a way to keep their P5 status. If those two things happen, I would be all for the move without hesitation.

Since "P5" is a media designation, that ship has sailed.  It's gonna be "P4" going forward.

But ... the PAC has NCAA autonomy which doesn't mean much since the AAC follows the same measures voluntarily.

But if it gets to $14 or $15M per year... is that bird in the hand worth the two in the ACC bush that may or may not happen, and may not happen soon ??

It's a good question. Glad I don't have to answer it!

If they trimmed FAU, UAB, UNT and Charlotte from this list, it would be an OK conference.

While I definitely wouldn't turn it down, that PAC thing kinda has the similar feel of joining a conference with a lot of basketball only teams security wise ...... maybe the GoR alleviates some of that.

Plus, you get that offer in hand, you go to the ACC, and tell them you are about to sign it unless they want to invite. While that might not work, they might be scared of not having a Florida school. 

What do you mean? There's always FAU and FIU... 😈

No one cares about the west coast. They don't count. Which is why we need to be sure we don't get screwed on a merger. We are already in a disaster. Let's not make it worse.

USF can probably already feel the promotion……

    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.
