"As we witness renewal as well as change in welcoming six new schools on July 1, I want to take a moment to thank and congratulate our three departing schools, Cincinnati, Houston and UCF, for all the contributions they have made to our conference, and to wish them much success in their new conference. Their achievements will always be a lasting legacy for The American, and we will be rooting for them in their new home (except when we compete against them!), just as we know they will be rooting for the continued success of our conference, for which they helped build a strong foundation. We part in friendship and wish them well."
