Thank god we're leaving this Sh!thole

SMU has a tradition, albeit a rough one.

You're right. Pretty sad that the most tradition this league has is a team that got the death penalty and Craig James.

Does anyone have a list of all the new teams that will be joining the BE and when they're planning to join? I'm trying to figure out when Syracuse will likely be able to bolt.

 

[MaxwellCuse]

UConn, Rutgers, Cinci, Louisville, USF, UCF, SMU, Houston, Boise, San Diego, Memphis, Navy.

VS.

Boston College, Syracuse, Pitt, Maryland, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, North Carolina, Duke, NC State, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Florida State, Miami.

Does anyone still wish we were staying in the Big East?

At least hoops will be great with Pitino, Thompson, Calipari...oh...forget it.

Looks like everyone is coming in for 2013-14. Houston, SMU, UCF, and Memphis for all sports ... Boise and San Diego St for FB only. Navy joining for FB only in 2015-16.

SU will be in the ACC for 2013-14, although 27 months puts us at 2014-15.

 

[arbitragegls]

what will be interesting is that bball teams will be flying all over the place to arenas that house 10-12k...and cost to get there will be high...can just see the media coverage for BE/Big empty middle and south of USA.....think a big media contract is coming your way SUCKER!?

Thanks... it's getting hard to keep track of this nonsense!

So good good you gotta say it twice twice

Kind of like Jimmy Two Times

 

[rosconey]

espn had a story about empty acc seats at hoop games-

this from a real league-this new beast league is doomed from the start

i wonder if marrinatto claimed the millions Memphis had been showing off to the first big league to take them-10 mill think

Continues to amaze me that ND wants to be part of this for all sports except football. When do ND administrators and fans decide this new Big East is not a good option for its athletic teams or its fans or the University.

Same with Catholic BB schools: why not just form their own compatable conference and let ND make a choice.

 

[CaliCuse]

The real question is whether or not this means we can get out sooner.

I'd like to join the ACC fully able to compete in football as well as the other tweo big programs we excel in.Doug is getting closer player wise but we have a ways to go o show it on the field. Whether its coaching or not I'm not sure of just yey I'll make up my mind at the end of this 2012 season, I hope.

They would still have Marquette and DePaul as mid west outliers with ND.
