Hey. That’s the best way to look at it. Better chance of getting in the playoffs.

AAC sucks. They have 2 teams that are decent and 2 others that might fit. Those 4 should join the tiny 8.

Making playoffs is unacceptable for trolls on this board. WVU must win it all or else. But even then they will find something to ***** about and will expect that every year.

All this ‘success’ is predicated on recruiting remaining at the elevated level many believe it has reached recently. I doubt we can attract the same level of recruits to such a drastically diminished Conference. Also believe we will not retain much of the current staff and have difficulty attracting replacements that are as skilled. I believe recruiting will further decay as the staff quality and predictable staff turnover becomes the norm.
