We feel like there [I][B]should[/B][/I] be 2 likely options, ACC and Big 12, but neither has materialized yet. Big Ten and SEC chances are miniscule. Things will change but we want/need them to change more quickly. The Big 12 would be great but that conference may keep waiting to see if and when the ACC starts to rattle loose. The AAC has Wichita State as basketball only and that hasn't worked out real well. The PAC is bringing in Gonzaga. Even the ACC has the leach known as ND as a partial member. Everyone below the P2 is going to do what they can to try to keep up.

This is 95% in jest, of course. A merger of the AAC and Big East is not something we would entertain, but if we are just spit-ballin'. Maybe an alliance of some sort. On the football side you have Army, Navy, Memphis, South Florida, East Carolina, Tulane, UTSA, North Texas who all went bowling this year I believe. In total there would be 24 basketball and 15 football affiliate members within the alliance.
