Our primary focus probably needs to be getting our former ‘basketball first’ schools back to where they were performing twenty years ago. Tulsa, Charlotte, Temple, Tulane, and now Wichita State have all fallen back significantly in basketball. We need those schools to perform at a high level again just as much as we need an infusion of good programs.

If we are being objective I think we can expect FAU to take a step back whenever Dusty May leaves. This conference needs the programs that are expected to be good every year(and can invest a lot)..Memphis, Wichita State and temple...to get their ish together to make up for FAU falling back to the pack.

6BC, UAB and USF need to be good as well. It's just been awhile for da niners and USF.
