The order in which the schools were listed in the earlier post comparing past to future by UTEPDallas did not match up, so I want to reshape it ...
CUSA 2004
Louisville
Cincinnati
Memphis
Tulane
UAB
Southern Miss
South Florida
East Carolina
Houston
TCU
Army
BIG EAST 2015
UConn
Cincinnati
Memphis
Tulane
Temple
Central Florida
South Florida
East Carolina
Houston
SMU
Navy
+ Boise State
+ San Diego State
+ One More TBA
UConn for Louisville, Temple for UAB, UCF for Southern Miss, SMU for TCU, Navy for Army, and add three out-of-place newbies from the Far West.

The line that included the BE consist of 9 former CUSA schools and 2 MWC programs. That's one line right there.....
I'm not going to bang on Tulane. Congrats to the Green Wave.

Um.. it IS Conference USA. It's CUSA + a few others. That's it. "100% better" my ass.

UAB to the ACC... we'll move our basketball games back to the 17,000-seat civic center where we played during the Gene Bartow years (which will now include a brand new entertainment district), Legion Field seats 63k+ so that's not an issue, and we have our new baseball stadium that will be ready for the '13 season. Not to mention our university fits the mold of the major medical and research universities already in the ACC... oh, and did I mention Birmingham's TV market has the largest weekly college football viewership in the nation to go with a total market rank of #47?
Hey, if it worked for Tulane it can work for UAB, right?

If you think that line is funny, try it with someone who has no attraction to CUSA or the Big East and see what response you get. I'll bet it will be largely indifference, but certainly not laughter.

In fact, none of it was funny. Not in the least. It made a point as to the structure of the Big East, but that's all. I think the younger generation has lost a true sense of humor. Ridecule, arguement and vulgarity are not humor. Clever twists of ideas and words are funny. None of that exists in the video.

Fact is, he insults the Big East by calling them CUSA. So your conference is the insult he is using.
Ever think of it that way?

I don't take it as an insult anyway. The Big East is just about what C-USA used to be, and C-USA used to be a very solid league.

Say what you want about the Big East (and I probably won't totally disagree) but they've clearly decided they want to survive. Tulane was added for 2 reasons: their academic profile matches that of SMU & several non-FB schools & New Orleans (plus the Bowl that probably comes with it).
The bowl in New Orleans is a sun belt bowl.
