I think nthat the Caholic seven will also want Cincy , Memphis , Connecticuit and Temple for basketball and then raid the A-10 for upper level teams [ Probably Xavier , Butler , VCU , Dayton , St. Louis ] which would make sixteen teams . PERFECT !!!!

The demise was begun when Georgetown and John Thompson adamantly rejected the application of Penn State in the early days of the Big East. Had Penn State been admitted, the whole scenario which has unfolded over the last several years would have been avoided Adding Penn State followed by Miami and Virgina Tech would have solidified the Leagues position in both Football and Basketball. The later addition of Louisville and Cincinnati would have enhanced both the basketball program and football. Not to mention what might have happened with Notre Dame. WHAT A DYNAMITE LEAGUE FOR BOTH MAJOR SPORTS. <br /><br />Now the Big Least will surely cease to exist and the small basketball schools will get the skimpy rewards that they so justly deserve. <br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5211132192347985363.post-84400088467182444962012-12-12T10:23:36.903-05:002012-12-12T10:23:36.903-05:00Well, the bottom line is actually the bottom line....Well, the bottom line is actually the bottom line.
