Cougars fans, in a year's time, UH athletics is going big time in a 'Power Five' conference, with the possibility of facing two notable NCAA juggernauts.
The last time Texas got a wandering eye for alternative conference affiliations, it fueled a series of realignment in college sports that nearly killed the Big 12.
In a statement by the AAC, conference commissioner, Mike Aresco, said agreements were reached with UH, UCF and Cincy for their departures. So what does this mean for Houston? It means the Cougars men's basketball and football programs, as well as the women's basketball, baseball, and softball programs, among others, can begin competing in a major conference, something the school has sought since the middle of the last decade.
