They’d make more money joining the BE and going Indy in football. They lost millions of dollars going 1-11 lasted year, and next year could be worse. It’s not like it really matters where they park that garbage truck. It will still stink. They might as well join the better conference, make more money, own their football rights, and play a more flexible schedule.

Just schedule Army, Liberty, UMass, and BYU (2-1) every year, and do it late in the season. Throw in a bunch of 3-1 (or 2-1-1, depending on if SU wants to try to expand its presence in Albany or NYC) deals with Syracuse, and play an FCS game, and I just made half their schedule.

Then play MAC schools and Sun Belt schools for the other half. Add in games against Temple and Navy to spice things up if the AAC doesn’t black ball them.

Point being, their best road to a P5 is the BE. They’ll at least be on the right side of any split, and they have relevance in sports where UConn has a prayer. Staying in the AAC beyond the point where they’re collecting SU exit money destroys everything that they have for no reason.
