Conference USA next in line to get gutted
AAC expects applications from UAB, Charlotte, Rice, FAU, UTSA, and North Texas this week.
That brings some solid markets to the AAC (not necessarily amazing programs although there's some potential there) and is going to really hurt CUSA. They better start scrambling soon because that would take out half their league and leave them scrambling to stay alive.
They've got some options to bring some teams into the fold but that's gonna be tough for them as a conference to survive if all those teams leave, which the expectation is they would.
