We would be wise to join the AAC football only if they invited us. I know that is a minority opinion but I really think this independence thing has the potential to hurt us long term. Finding 11 FBS teams to play us every year is certainly not easy (10 this year) and may get more difficult.

Can you imagine if they invited us to join for football only and we turned it down and they instead offered it to UMASS who would jump at it. Good Grief.

The fact is we wanted to keep football in the AAC and they turned us down. Independence was never viewed as something good for football it was a byproduct of the very necessary and smart move to Big East basketball.
I’m inclined to agree, I’d like to see how independence was out with a halfway decent football team first.
