Football and women basketball to AAC. The rest in Big East.

[Durks07]

Just throwing it out there and not very seriously

How about the Big East & American reunite. BE merging with the ACC has been mentioned but we know that won't happen. The American has 15 schools. 14 football and 13 basketball members. 2 football only and 1 non-football

26 programs
15 football
24 basketball

The footprint would cover more than half the contiguous country. First it solves UConn's football issue. It also solves basketball issues for Temple and Memphis. And due to its size programs like UConn, USF, Memphis, Tulane can leave when another invitation is proffered. I think the Big East should be very concerned with the status quo 11 teams with some very very bad.

Soccer is really Northeast and West coast college sport.

News for Mid Atlantic conferences and schools which have been men’s national champions 5 times in the last decade. Georgetown, Maryland, Clemson 2X, Marshall. Exceptions: Ontario Orange, UVM, 3 Stanford mid-2010s.

Similarly, Free Shoes, UNC and Penn State won 5 of the last decade’s women’s champions. Exceptions: USC and UCLA, Stanford, and Santa Clara of some other conference.

It is a non-revenue sport. Might as well be a club sport since it does not generate enough revenue to cover coaches salary. If I am a student and my tuition keeps increasing I am wondering why I am supporting these non-revenue sports.

Sure enough, but a tangential remark given soccer is really not only a “Northeast and West coast college sport”.

I think that was the one that wasn't being killed. They won 3 NC's in the 6 years they were there not counting 2020

Residual talent. That COVID year team wasn't even Top 20 worthy. They got back to the Big East in the nick of time.
