Chronicle: SMU and UH in Mix

They could piece together 14 (7-7) if not for bball schools

They are dealing with two issues: max of 17 bball teams and they already have 14.

So they need fb only members, which is unstable in and of itself.

Hence the service academies and now Boise as fb only, which would work better for such a remote team (allow non rev to play in a regional conference a la byu wcc)

So, 17 total-14 = 3 slot for full membership= 9 now get to 12

When they ought to go to 14. Make 2 10 team bball divisions.

Nova to 1a means 4 of 12 members were playing 1aa in last 14 years, 5/12 if Boise is in there and only Boise has actually been very good save 2 yrs usf

They said that the Big East is willing to have 16-18 BB schools.
