Let's say we could wave a magic wand and become a member of the Big 12 conference. Sure, the revenue would be nice, but there would only be a couple of teams we could beat on a regular basis. We could concievably be a part of the new Big East...but it's really hard to see how they are better top to bottom on a ten year average and we would lose our capacity to take props, which IMO will be critical to our future success. We could rejoin the MAC, but what point would that serve? Whether you like where we're at at this time or not, it's probably the best place for us and winning will take care of everything. A one loss Kent team who lost to KEN-FRICKEN-TUCKY was one win away from a BCS berth and I feel confident we can do it too.
That said, it's more than 90 days til kick off and we have to talk about something, so there you go.
