The Big East should immediately begin to negotiate a merger with the ACC, & set up a branding that gives the Big East a remaining footprint on the college landscape.

First, you get rid of the basketball only schools & keep old rivalries alive by scheduling them as one non-conf. game per year.

Second, you set up a BIG EAST Division who will play the Coastal Division in the Football Championship. It might be necessary to take a few of the ACC teams into the B.E. Division for balance(Maryland,BC).

About 20 years ago, I remember a newspaper article that mentioned this type of superconference scenario with these two conferences. It appears this is where we are headed...

The ACC would absolutely LOVE to have all the major Big East Football teams come in, & one way to make it happen is to immediately steal away two of their premier programs, forcing The Big East leadership to take action & get to the negotiating table.

The Big East really has no other viable option that will save them at this point, & you know the old expression...

IF YOU CAN'T BEAT 'EM, JOIN 'EM !!!
