Memphis vs UCF - AAC title game

No, I asked for a picture from Charlotte where the game was that empty? Since the game has been moved to Charlotte the attendance has been very good. But feel free to live in the past! Having the game in Jacksonville was a major mistake that was corrected.

No, you said go back 15 years and show where it has happened. This was Jacksonville but it happened.

Amazing how these teams can score all these huge TD's and not one player thinks of commiting a 15 yard unsportsmanlike after scoring.

Curious ...

I wonder if you are like this in your career and professional life. Scott Frost, seemingly, could have had UCLA or Florida ... but is going back to a PLACE that he loves in Nebraska. That actually is a contrarian thought this day. Would you stay at the corner convenience store if Shop& Save offered you 150% more; would our businesslawyer stay with his Dad's firm if Skadden Arps offered him 1000% more?

Ain't just about shiny objects for these guys. And ... I think - as we saw with HCRE - how you exit a job, marriage, school, family is important. Do the best you can with kids you presumably have relationships with.

You honor your word. You honor the social contract. You are grateful for opportunities and make the best of them and show it with loyalty. When you have fulfilled your commitment and have done well, you are entitled to what the market bears. That's how I see it and that's how I've operated reasonably successfully over 30 years. On the whole, it has benefited me greatly even if in the sort run it leaves $$ on the table. Most employment arrangements are at will. That is not the case with coachesz
 
Nice of them to announce during OT that their coach is bailing.

Your reading comprehension leaves a lot to be desired. Hoophound said "I'm not buying these teams don't beat P5s in major bowls. We've been watching it happen almost every year for 15 years. These teams are loaded with speed."

I asked for him to go back and show us where "these teams" have been beating P5 teams for 15 years. Pay attention to details! Please!

Was there a receiver in the vicinity when Memphis QB launched the ball OOB late in regulation to avoid a sack?
Don't think that balll got back to the LOS.

So now another AAC team has to play a "P5" team in a bowl knowing their coach is gone.

We just can't ever get a level playing field.

Money wise P5 is playing a different game. If they want Your coach they're getting him. With more tv money maybe the AAC could do better here.

Nope. They will always have more money.

We have screen time. Aresco was right to prioritize screen time.

Right but if you ever want to truly separate from the rest of the G5's you have to be able to pay your top coaches about 3 million. That should ensure you keep your coaches from all but top half P5 schools. That will only come with more media money.

Separate from the rest of the G5 is not too hard and very obtainable, but there will never be a day when an AAC schools can out gun a P5 school financially. Their tv money is bigger, endowments are bigger, boosters are bigger. AAC coaches would only turn down a P5 offer for very extenuating circumstances or if it’s one of the worst programs like Northwestern offering for a hot commodity like Frost. Frost would pass on NW only because they think something better will come next cycle.

That's why the whole "P6" thing is a marketing farce.

The P5 conferences are overpaid by TV and we're underpaid. Should the Big 10 be paid more than the AAC? Yes, maybe 3x more or 4x more. Not 20x more.

Thanks. They couldn't even sell out with $3 tickets.

Tonight will be the first ACC championship game that I'll watch. This year is an aberration.
