Lol why. I don’t think AAC can afford to go coast to coast like the super conferences can rn. 

they can't afford not to

And to add. CJS had the USF rolling. I just hated the defense. Not sure how our offense will do under CAG but our defense needs to improve.

Im hoping for improvement this season, but next year is when I expect it to be where it needs to be after more guys get processed out.

Very unfair to lump Horn in there. He absolutely played while hurt.

Can’t remember but I will take your word for it, tried to forget the past few years, looks like I succeeded.

The meeting should have been regarding firing Aresco.

 

Why?  What does he have to do with our plight

I don't even blame him for the 5 schools the AAC lost since we are trying to get out as well.

It was his idea to add Charlotte, Rice, and North Texas over more accomplished teams like Marshall and Appalachian State

Yesterday he made clear that the AAC has no intent to go after Western schools, which in my opinion is huge mistake. 

The current state of the AAC is his fault, hence I think he should be fired.

I mean, the conference only has so much value to offer, and the remaining schools left only have so much value for their product. I bet he went after those PAC schools and I bet that we were the 4th or 5th best option.

PAC Schools probably wanted this:

1. B1G (wishful thinking)

2. B12

3. ACC

4. Reform PAC

5. MWC

6. AAC

On top of what they wanted. Aresco said it was all four or none from the PAC. I think that was smart. OSU and WSU aren’t the money makers that were left in the PAC. So, why put everyone else through the pains of spending their athletics budget on travel for Olympic sports? MWC teams can’t leave until they can afford their buyouts. So who should we go after, MAC/CUSA/Sunbelt teams?

We are going for Army as a rival for Navy, they have a hood fan base, and who doesn’t love the Armed Forces matchups? They are fun to watch. It sucks that the AAC is in this boat, but it’s the only available boat. So it’s either this or drown.

Did we go after Boise State and San Diego State though? Since they would have been the real gets.

We have talked to them in the past. I bet we aren’t their first option either.

His contract likely has a buyout clause, so it's not as easy as giving him a pink slip.
