Can’t believe we are looking at 10 years with FIU and that crowd.

We took a look at our history with the future AAC teams from a baseball perspective earlier in the fall. The history runs back to the beginning of our program (1979) with several of those schools. The basketball history there is even more interesting.

Nice rundown. Enjoyed reading the history and looking at some of the facilities. ECU, Tulane, and Wichita State have nice facilities. USF and Rice aren’t bad either. Memphis is a bit like ours but surprisingly small.
USF was not in CUSA 3.0. USF moved to the Big East in 2005 and later the AAC after the Big East split off.
Yep, caught that on the other post, think I left it there while editing, but the number of years was correct. Updated.
