Time for the Big East to lose the EGO...

[McPeachy]

As that conference continually loses teams, and as the MWC continually loses teams, it is time to make a conference with the "best of the rest". Safety in numbers. For those hoops only schools, I am sure they will be fine on their own.

Split Divisions...joined by a conference championship game. Something like this:

West

Air Force
CSewe
Boise State
Fresno State
Hawaii
Nevada
New Mexico
SanDoucher State
UNLV
UTEP
Wyoming

East

Louisville
Cincinnati
Temple
UConn
USF
UCF
Houston
SMU
Memphis
Tulsa
Southern Miss

I could live with that, but the Least still thinks too much of themselves and would probably never agree to anything of the sort.

You are right...they need to realize, they are who they are. The are a CDOA / WAC / MWC re-tread. Nothing more, nothing less. And as they continually lose schools (with UCONN, Louisville, & Cincinnati next on the list)...thier shitty assed leadership needs to pull their collective heads out of eachothers asses.

I think it is likely that what will end up is a hybrid of CUSA-MWC-"Big East" with a second basically minor league conference (ala Sun Belt)...

However, I think there is a fairly strong likelihood that Wyoming gets left out :tickedoff: ...and getting left out will have nothing to do with our performance or traditional rivalries, it's all about money and Wyoming just brings no TV market.

I would love that as I live in Louisville and would be SO happy to see a Wyoming vs. Louisville match up here at some point. Save me on all this travelling around to see the Pokes.

I'd love this. I think the size alone would add stability (plus have a huge buy-out for anyone wnating to leave).
