Per On3's Brett McMurphy, Miami has explored joining the American Conference. Miami reportedly offered between $30-$40 million to join the league.

Who can blame them, if true? Our league and commish have ZERO vision. Steinbrecher's salary ($800k+) is an abomination.

And was told no. Same response to UCONN (football only) and James Madison. Yes, the MAC is on its last legs but the rest of the country still looks at the league members as sorry saps.


There's Only One OU and it ain't in Norman

Miami is spending and going for it. Good for them.

I don't see OU or its donors being able to do the same. We had some headlines when we made it known we'd be interested in a conference move but... no news since then.... We don't seem to have the $ to increase athletics spending to what a better conference would want to see....

Sigh....










Can somebody hit a pull up jumper for me?.....
