If this happens, I think there will be more to the story. He will not put FB at risk.
I h0pe he is secretly working on blowing up the AAC and starting a new football-only conference. A 12 team national football-only conference consisting of UConn, Cincy, Temple, Navy, UCF, USF, Houston, BYU, Boise St, Colorado St, Air Force, San Diego St would get a lot more money from TV (better teams, bigger markets, national appeal, multiple time zones, etc) and should consistently compete for being one of the top 5 conferences.
If we get more than half of the current AAC to vote to disband the conference (which including the above 7 teams would do), can we dissolve the conference with no fees?
That would be a dream scenario. The NBE for all non-football programs, and this new football only conference for football. Would be a great holding place for 10 years until we can make another push for P5 inclusion.
