CUSA is getting better and has a lot of underclass talent. I am not sure that this year's senior class was the best group of players for this conference. The ACC and BE are more established soccer conferences. There were what six or seven ACC teams in the tournament and five BE teams. UCSB won the championship so they probably had some people noticed by the scouts. I think that as UK, USC, UCF, UAB, Memphis and Tulsa improve, CUSA will get noticed. I hope that UK, UCF, and USC start scheduling ACC and BE teams on a regular basis to help the conference RPI. Certainly USC and Clemson probably play every year and UCF -USF, UCF-Miami ought to play every year. I hope that we can start scheduling ACC and BE teams on a regular basis. I think though that they don't want to play us for obvious reasons. I know Hyndmann doesn't duck anyone because for example we played UNM on the road last year as well as UI. I think the ACC wants nothing to do with playing the Mustangs except in the tournament.
