Good gawd, you can leave this board and then come back a month later and this asinine subject will have come up again.

Speculate all you want but the school presidents are making the decisions on who gets in and they aren't going to pick FBS schools...PERIOD. I would say the same for adding a big, state school but if you rate the chances of one or the other a VCU stands a better chance than an FBS school.

Next subject please.

Every rule has an exception. . . .Omaha and not being out in BUFU.

Thanks Dude from out here in BUFU.

Next subject please.

The presidents will make the conference decisions.
The coaches will coach.
The players will play.
The tailgaters will tailgate.
The bloggers will blog.

If you don't like the subject, you can just move along. Or complain about it I guess. We all speculated on Creighton before you were added. The world doesn't stop now that you are in.

Says the guy with 50 posts, 18 of which are in this thread saying add Conn (look it up) and another 15 or 20 in other threads saying add UConn.

10 of twelve schools with no football permits the Big East to add 2 schools with football. If you pass on UCONN or Memphis etc. because they have football, that is ridiculous. Every rule has an exception. Butler and Catholic only, Omaha and not being out in BUFU.

Remember that the original Big East had only 2 football schools and 6 non-football schools. Even letting in 2 proved to be a slippery slope. Each concession to them only led to requests/demands for more concessions. Nothing was ever enough.

It's not like someone's saying swap Uconn for the Bluejays, so what's the problem with advocating for Uconn a former BE member as #11 or #12? Would it be better if all his 50 posts said add BYU?

C'mon Bill, that "slippery slope" lasted 30+ years and a decent amount of those years were spent as the best conference in cbb. Sign me up for another 30 years of slippery slope like that please.
