His was the only conference poached that speaks volumes and the once highly touted MW was relegated to also ran 2. The AAC contract is double the MW conference paying 6.5/7 million a team to 3.5 per team. 3. The Markets occupied by the survivors on the AAC Tampa New Orleans Philly Dallas Plus Navy Are better than Far flung sparely populated MW 4. Pretty much all playoff competition gets removed for thst final playoff spot + top G5 playoff bonus money I’m well aware that some of these arguments can be made to add AAC team to the MW , because this merger makes to much sense for the survival of these schools. If I’m the AAC I would take 4 MW all sports teams. Boise Utah State Colorado State San Diego State But I would add to this merger two BB only’s preferably from the list Gonzaga, Dayton , San Diego **WKU, VCU. *Im the biggest Aresco critic because of his ignorance of basketball but to not recognize his FB accomplishment given the hand he was dealt and the alleged flag ship program’s utter destruction was a remarkable achievement. **private school [/QUOTE]
