I don't pine for the AAC, you need to work on your reading comprehension.
I went to a d3 school with a better basketball turnout than thisFAU's basketball arena giving ECU a run for their money...
to be clear, I am not arguing that we should have stayed in the AAC or that the Big East isn't a decent landing spot. However, that landing spot needs to be temporary if we're going to maintain ourselves at the big table as an athletic department.
In the meantime, we have basketball back.
Exactly
I knew what he was saying. My point was and is football at this point, or ten years down the line simply is not ready to join Big time football. Whether it's big time football, together or separate from the NCAA, UCONN football does not position UCONN to join that shift.
Exactly! Swept under over and over.
Know that's not how you used it, but not a bad metaphor for the entire AAC. Only stood for 54 years, and was eventually chopped up and sold by foreign conquerors.
a state-of-the-art new stadium and practice facilities, membership in a BCS conference, ranked teams, regular bowl appearances, a BCS bowl appearance, yet "not set up to pursue big time football"? Maybe not now due to three bad consecutive hires, but back then? Please.
Completely disagree that it's time to wave a white flag. It's time to double down.
Man I wonder how long this took to make. Like how much pitiful research you did to try to hold on to your utterly idiotic narrative.ooooo, the hate be flowin...
Birmingham, Alabama, bigger than any city in New England not named bahstan. headquarters of the SEC, and host to next year's World Games, at the new U AB home field.
sumone here said replaced by schools of 'lesser prestige.' sumone here also said 'the arrogance is palpable.'
something old:
Rice. nobels, rhodes scholars, billionaires, absolutely on top of the 'having an international reputation for excellance' alumni mafia.
speaking of the future, it was ranked first in the world in materials science research by Times Higher Education. what's their endowment, like 10x ours?
something new:
UTSA.
'UTSA is the receipt of the CAE-Cyber Operations, CAE-Information Assurance Research (CAE-R), and CAE-Cyber Defense designations making it one of the few universities in the nation to hold three National Center of Excellence designations from the National Security Agency.
in things cyber security, at the top is either UTSA or Carnegie-Mellon, nice neighborhood.
UTSA, which is designated as a Hispanic Serving Institution, became the recipient of Excelencia in Education's Seal of Excelencia in 2020 and is one of only 14 colleges and universities nationwide to earn this prestigious certification.' wiki,
noice. here's a commencement of theirs -only 40,000 attended.
you can be both 'for' realizing that us in the big east is the right move, for now, as well as recognizing that the new aac has realistically good prospects for being something in football, where the college cash is.
Uhh, because they needed to add teams and there's a limited pool available. So the question is within that pool, how well did they pick?
And a much more attractive football schedule.
no one cares about what the stadiums look like at schools that most people never heard about until this morning
The Alamodome holds a maximum of 32,000 in a basketball configuration, which is what you are showing (Configuration Maps | Alamodome). And it is generously at 50% that capacity. Stop lying.ooooo, the hate be flowin...

tell them, mr cranky.
It’s called puffery…you shared the picture. 4,400 grads don’t bring 9 people each. In any event, it’s a drug school and I am glad to be as far from them, UNT, FAU and the others as possible.

So what? I still don't understand the point you are trying to make or hear you offer a realistic scenario where we move up. It's just the same dead horse beating.
i just learned that UTSA football is currently one of eleven undefeated teams in the nation.
In time, you may even refer to it as the Big East. It sure feels like the original more than the
the current version sure feels like the “original” version than any iteration post Rutgers, ND, WVU, Miami, VT, etc. we have 6 of 8 original members back. (Pitt was not original, nova was, but joined a year late).
