UT Arlington has started the process of finding a new conference home.

Wichita State is screwed if the AAC gets poached of Cincy, UCF, and Houston.

What a shame!

Assuming the AAC holds onto Memphis (basketball power) and Tulsa (solid regional rivalry), I'm guessing the Shox would stay put, especially if the AAC added a few viable teams. If that doesn't prove to be the case, things could get interesting. :D

There aren't really any schools out there that fit the AAC profile and it's glorious.

Dayton, St Louis, VCU and Richmond are going to wait around forever for a Big East invite.

Duquesne isn't going to leave to become a budget and geographical outlier.

Memphis is going to jump at the first offer they can find. Watch for Gonzaga to try to form some kind of basketball-centric conference as BYU leaving is a huge blow to the WCC.

The AAC is probably looking at Charlotte, Western Kentucky and North Texas and, hoo boy, is that a giant step down from where they're at.

I still don't get UT-Arlington to the MVC. Makes very little sense.

Nothing may become of this but it looks like Missouri State may positioning themselves for a future move to FBS football.

Their fans seem pretty positive about a future Big East invitation when the Big East "expands to 16" from 11. I disagree but we'll see. I would think it would be Gonzaga, VCU, Dayton, St. Louis, and a second west coast team to keep Gonzaga's cost down and so East coast teams dont have to go across country for 1 game. Make it Friday and Sunday thing-maybe St. Mary's

Yes, I'd like to see the Shocks back in the Valley. I'm not sure if it is the best move for them...but, it would be a great "re-addition" to the conference.
