Future expansion. Now after years in Indy BYU isn't close to teams like UCF, Navy, USF, BSU. Houston. So, by proven results Indy has failed and a 115th ranking is the result!
It's more about good recruits see that Indy is a joke and the borderline recruits would rather be be G5.
The AAC has become the SEC of G5. The top teams are getting good recruiting classes. Indy teams, BYU, UMASS, ARMY not so good.
