2020 is the last of the 2014 Credits.

My mistake. Thought it was 7 rolling years not 6.

As much as I hate UConn, I'd much rather have them succeed in our conference than watch them succeed in the AAC. If they join us that may open up a window for us to poach another program. Maybe Wichita St to make it 12?

Villanova
Georgetown
UConn
St. John's
Marquette
Seton Hall
Creighton
Wichita St
DePaul
Providence
Butler
Xavier

That's a damn good conference and restored rivalries of Creighton v. WS and SJ v. UConn/G'Town v. UConn/Villanova v. UConn

We'd probably get a ton more money too.

I'd rather restore the Creighton v Gonzaga rivalry.

Gonzaga, UConn...I really don't care as long as their success comes at your expense, not ours.

Of course I'd rather UConn and Gonzaga but I thought Gonzaga is impossible.

Well, as stated by a previous poster, if UConn has plans to attempt to rejoin the BE they need to make their intentions known now, in order to join by the start of the school year in 2021.

good luck to them.

There is no chance this ever happens. None. They are the antithesis of the Big East religiously, societally, academically. And they’re not very good anymore to boot.

There is no chance Wichita State ever joins. Their new TV contract has made that a moot point.

The option now is St Louis.

Much rather have VCU than St. Louis.
