  1. Thanks for the response. As for condescending Tiger fans, we all have them. SLU has them too... The Boone county vo-tech get's a bit old as well (even when the two schools are always in the same tier acedemically with MU usually rated slightly higher). Anyway, looks like you're in the A-10. Good luck.
  2. from a completely selfish position as a less than full time billiken fan. I might become one if SLU joined the MVC, but I understand your points. At least the Xavier game would be interesting for me...
  3. I didn't any MVC threads on the first page and thought I'd ask.
  4. I'm a Tiger fan that lives in St. Louis, so I admit that i normally only follow the billikens with a passing interest. But I'm curious what SLU fans feel about SLU moving to the MVC instead of the A-10. Don't you think the MVC would be a better fit for SLU than the A-10? To me...A-10 conference games with SLU would be brutal to watch as I don't really care about A-10 teams and know absolutely nothing about them. I suspect many St. Louisan's would feel the same way. On the other hand there are plenty of potential benefits if SLU goes to the MVC. I can potentially see outstanding regional rivalries with almost **all** of the MVC schools and superb atmostphere with your new on campus arena. Heck, I might even watch SLU games! (I still remember when SLU played Evansville every year and had that great rivalry) Now, I know money talks, but does the A-10 really offer that much more...and does that really overrule the potential of strong regional rivalries that would exist in the MVC? Wouln't SLU be on the outside looking in when it comes to having things in common with other schools in the A-10? I also see the arguement that the A-10 get's more NCAA tourney teams than the MVC. Wouln't SLU's move to the MVC only strengthen that conference and further solidify the MVC's standing in the world of college basketball (I would argue has already happened the last couple of years). These are all just questions, I'm curious what you all think. Sincerely, Your Friendly Neighborhood Tiger Fan
