To be fair, since all of the re-alignment is about football and they weren't playing big-boy football at the time that BE football commenced (along with some others in their new conference), one could argue that they were never really in the mix to be picked.

Of that bunch, they're still one of the more likely ones to be picked if there is further Big Five expansion.

They waited about 10 years too long before deciding to give D1 a try. Got to the dance too late.

I've already accepted the fact that Yukon is going to end up in the ACC eventually. If I am wrong, then I am wrong, but when it happens, it's one less day that I will have to be miserable since I've already accepted it.

For brand equity sake these teams should just purchase the name Conference USA and be done with it.
