basketball doc Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 According to the Cincinnati paper this morning, the A Ten voted privately to invite the Billikens and Charlotte into the conference in 2005.(hopefully sooner) It'll probably be officially announced tomorrow, but you guys are in and though we're not the Big East, we have some great schools that put out high quality sports of all varieties and without football pulling us around by the throat, (which unfortunatly is what's going to happen to Marquette and Depaul) we can concentrate on our main focus; being the best non football league in the country.Having you on our schedule for awhile we know how tough St. Louis can be, so I'm interested in seeing the 49ers in person and welcoming them to the decibal dungeun here in Dayton. Good luck this year ( except for the one game) and welcome aboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjray Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 Thanks for the welcome Doc. We on this board are very happy to jump to the A10 out of the NASCAR league (aka CUSA). CUSA has become a southern football conference. We look forward to conference games with Dayton, Xavier, St. Joseph, Temple and the 49ers. And given that the president of GW wanted to let BU into the league instead of us, we now have grudge material for our message board when that game comes along.

Schasz Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 I will second the welcome Doc. I used to really enjoy our games with Xavier and Dayton. St Joes is another good team that I got to see in person at the NCAA Tourney last year. Jameer Nelson is a heck of a player too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
