Yet you're here in a pathetic attempt to troll the board, because your "wee-wee' is too small. Or something.

THIS. The only ones who seem riled up are other G5 fans. There's a little more to the argument than stickers. Tv ratings, attendance, budgets, and facilities are just some of the areas where the league has separated itself from the other G5s. Over half the league spent time in a major conference.

Look, do I think the P5 is going to open the door to the AAC? I doubt it. Might it eventually result in a bigger paycheck and some kind of "middle tier" identity for the AAC---yeah, I think it could.

Be careful the g4 trolls will come back and say that we were baiting them becuase we're speaking highly of our achievements as a conference and not embracing their g5 pride lol:coffee3:

They must have an alert system on the G4 boards. Look how quickly a non-AAC poster ran over here to defend their honor. It's the patented "little d*ck" syndrome George Carlin used to talk about.

Many great points here ^^^ gentlemen

Need I remind most, majority of the programs currently in the AAC have rich athletic successes but the league’s unstable situatiin then and thought as a dead walking confrence, provided its poor tv results.

I agree with Attackcoog, the AAC will not make $$$ what the so called p5 currently do but half of what they earn is very achievable.

Eventually everyone will learn the AAC as a tweener league but most certainly The 6 Best conference in FBS.

One thing is certain and that is the only legitimate candidates for a call up to the P5 reside in the AAC, a couple in the MWC and BYU.

We have absolutely nothing to lose by pushing the Power 6 narrative. It is only positive press we are getting from this. It also makes ppl clearly recognize us at the 6th best conference in football. The BCS had 6 conferences.

ESPN has talked about us a lot lately in these terms. There is no downside. It's marketing 101.

This is how the game is played. The same way the Power 5 made up the designation for themselves and people bought into it.

The BigEast/AAC was so unstable, was all but a dead walking confrence so they thaught, look at this league now.

Wichita State, the AAC one missing piece.

If the next Conference down in the rankings thought they could I am sure they would put a P7 sticker on their helmet but as it is the only Conference remotely close to the P5 in achievement on the field, budgets, facilities etc.. is the AAC. Houston did more than the rest of the G5 all by themselves last year. Evidently that rubs some fans the wrong way when one conference thinks they are better but it is just sports, self promotion etc.. in a world driven by money and perception. I have no problem with the AAC putting out the narrative that they think they should be part of a P6 because the alternative is just to accept second class citizenship. Bottom line is you have to prove it on the field or it is just a sticker.

If the AAC was full of startup programs I would be so embarrassed with how the P6 it's been pushed but I am NOT.

The reason Power 6 resonates is because the AAC is the former Big East which was part of the BCS (which consisted of 6 conferences). Everyone knows this and it gives the AAC more credibility. On the field performance also proves we have the 6th best league by far. It will eventually help us get a much better tv contract and more money.

Power 7 wouldn't make any sense. We need to keep pushing this. It has legs. Marketing marketing ppl

I agree completely. The fans bitching, moaning and ridiculing dismiss the fact that the AAC is the old Big East with a new name and had their country club privileges revoked and are just trying to make another case for country club membership. It is certainly worth a shot but the argument holds no merit unless we prove it on the field.

Exactly. This is my point, two will maybe make it, the rest will continue to be "left behind" with the rest of the G5. Some dismiss this as a troll effort, others know this to be reality. My school will continue the fight versus the P5 and their inherit advantages along side of those remaining. Keep up the good fight.

I think 5mil max, we need to improve bb

I've been arguing that point for months. We don't even need half of what the p5 gets. If we can get the old big East last offer, it would be considered a home run on our part and a bargain basement deal in comparison to the p5s. I think the OBE last contract was about 13.5mil, I'm not sure but I'd take that in a heart beat especially if we can get a better bowl lineup

Be careful guys. The G4 will ban us from our own boards.

I'd just like to point out that the poster you're responding to is not a UCONN fan. At all.

Yes, I know he has Uconn in his name, but he lists Central Connecticut St. as his team of choice.

Not to mention he's a troll. Which probably explains the usage of UCONN in his screenname.

Tulsa is the new flagship
