The MW grabbing those schools would be good competitively but, in the end, it wouldn’t change much as the top schools would still be looking to bolt for a P5 conference at the first chance. Memphis/SMU/Boise are going to be sweating out the B12’s next move. It’s not as vital for Boise, but Memphis and SMU have to get out of the AAC relatively quickly otherwise they’re in trouble.
Temple absolutely should be looking into getting out and back to the A10, which is a shame as their football program has been respectable for the most part unlike what Connecticut experienced. There’s just not a lot of options for these north east schools still trying to play football outside of the P5.
If I am Temple and UMass, I'm trying to talk Richmond and Rhode Island into upgrading to FBS to start an A10 football league with UConn, Memphis, and Army. It would be light years better for Memphis hoops considering what garbage the new AAC is.
Hypothetically, an MWC basketball league which includes Gonzaga, Memphis, Wichita, SMU, San Diego St, UNLV, and New Mexico is only below the Big Ten and SEC. Its better than the Pac 12 and depending on the year, could be better than the ACC and new Big 12
