My concern with Conference USA is they may not get out of this alive. Need to see them stabilize or see a plan that appears to be stable first.
Financially their TV contract is crap so all the money would have to be made in FBS games
I could see C-USA ultimately end up like the Summit. If you remember the Summit originally had teams in Louisiana, Michigan, Utah, and Indiana. Now it's basically the NCC 2.0
If NDSU and SDSU would jump, naturally trama like Montana, UNI, and any team in that geography could end up in the conference
But wouldn't it be interesting to have James Madison as a conference opponent in football only?
