Orlando Sentinel writer suggests USF and UCF are critical. We could easily add Texas with SMU and Houston, not to mention retaining Cincinnati and UConn long term (each are contractually obligated until 2015). And building on the strong BB programs of UConn, Cincinnati, Temple, Memphis and USF.

You need me in this league!
