None of the above - seems the path they are taking is good - Temple is an East Coast university with a solid academic background in a large market. Good at Basketball and an improving football program. The service academies are always a good addition for tradition & large following. While SDSU is a stretch, it brings a large market and is solid athletically. Another western school would be a great addition so hoping Air Force or BYU can be added (both solid athletic & academic schools with great following).

Memphis is a larger market than Tulsa and southern Mississippi (or all of MS for that matter). Also, they bring a bowl game (Liberty) and a good basketball program.
