I wonder if that, as a provision of FSU gets invited to the B1G, they would get a smaller cut until AAU status is achieved? That might placate those in the league with reservations (no pun intended).

Sure, why not. The B1G could make an accommodation for FSU if it wanted to.

Personally, I think it's more likely that (1) B1G sticks to its AAU rule, which would keep FSU out, and (2) the SEC would add FSU to keep the B1G out of Florida. But who knows. If that happens, it opens up the (small) possibility of USF joining Miami

This would be so wild.  What a new world that would be.  I wouldn't complain but we would be on an island for a while.

We might not be competitive for a while, but it would be better in the long run for the school and the overall health of the program. So a good problem to have.

Leapfrogging the school down the street, and putting us on the same level as UF, FSU, and UM, would be a dream come true.

Yes I think the academics are a thin veneer at this point.  This could give them cover to poach.

Here is a link to the interview. I’m pretty optimistic about our chances to move up.

IMO - MK is a great communicator and he knows how to lead and set the tone in this situation.  He is hitting all the points and engaging.

Bingo! And for fun all we have to do is go back about a year to see how unclear USF’s future was at that time. Now with the homerun hires in the revenue sports, USF is pretty much one of the top candidates to get the call up to the so  called power conferences. USF is finally figuring it all out imo

Would be awesome to change conferences and keep our good coaches longer.

FSU wins in FL courts.  

Meh... Don't read too much into this.  Nobody wins Motions to Dismiss.  Just means that the case will have to move forward. Has no other meaning
