Because they will just go from being included as a playoff conference to not wanting to be the last place playoff conf. I would assume if realignment happens, it will all happen simultaneously, we’ll be in B12 or we’re out but negotiate to be in AAC as everything settles into place.
I did speak with someone last week that was in Dallas when things fell through. Sunday play was NOT worked out and they did ask why they should meet our demands since we were the ones looking to join them. I believe some of that is positioning/ negotiating but was interesting.
