I would be perfectly happy going back to the old Big East FB conference replacing Rutgers with UConn, Temple with Nova, and adding Army/Navy to get to 10 teams. Then to get to 10 for BBall have StJ/GTown.

The problem is...

-For FB you need access to the playoff. If that Big East had an auto bid, then we are all good. If not, then you need to be a Top 10 team and that isn't happening consistently without $.

-For BBall the access to the NCAAT is there. But how many bids would the Big East get without $? How far would Big East teams go in the NCAAT without $?

The SEC this year could potentially get 14 of 16 teams in the NCAAT. How did a conference that used to be UK and their little brothers get to be that good? The SEC hasn't won a title since 2012, and that is the only one since 2007. They haven't been to the Title game since 2014. In the last 25 NCAATs they have 3 combined titles. In the last 23 NCAATs they have only been to the title game 4 times. They got to where they are now because of $.
