In my opinion South Alabama is located in a city that would allow it to surpass Conference USA as well as the Sun Belt. Most Sun Belt schools are located in the middle of nowhere and that goes for most conference USA schools as well. South is located in a metropolitan spot that allows for more revenue. In the future, I could see a jump from the Sun Belt to a much larger conference such as the Big East or a modified ACC. It may seem far fetched now, but South is in the prime spot to jump into one of those conferences and once the athletics get up to par there is a possibility of being invited into a larger conference.
