If you look at my posting history you can see that as far back as three years ago I was in favor of a merger with the AAC. Back then everybody thought I was crazy. Fast forward now and a lot more people are on board with that thought. it's probably going to take two or three more years for everybody to realize the dead end of independence but I'm now feeling very confident that we will get there. there's a reason very few games have been scheduled beyond 2018. TH knows we will be in a conference by then and it's probably going to be with the AAC involved.
