I am objective. Hence why my thought was even a gutted ACC is our least likely landing spot. Of course any of us would want to be in the ACC, SEC, B10, B12, or the P12.
The Big East in all forms is option 1. The Mountain West is likely option 2 (uggghh please no).
Let’s just play this game of Cincy, UConn, and Navy gone to prove how any (more likely) scenario I can come up with will be more desirable than the garbage Tallgrass keeps throwing against the wall to see if it sticks.
Temple, UH, SMU, Memphis, ECU, UCF, USF, and Tulane. So we would need to add at a minimum 2 teams and more likely 4.
Tulsa and Southern Miss are my options 1 and 2 to get to 10. At that point CUSA options are exhausted. We have taken the cream of CUSA (+Tulane) and left the rest to wither on the vine. We would look for 2 more schools as 13 and 14 from elsewhere.
Yes that would mean 9 out of those 10 schools would have played in CUSA at some point and would in essence be the CUSA you think I am bashing but CUSA 2013/2014 is not the CUSA of even 2003 when we had a pretty good league (with a crappy name).
Going to that dumpster fire Tallgrass is proposing would be 10 steps back instead of even treading water.
Sorry to burst your bubble but nobody is coming back to CUSA and that is being objective.
