Ugh. http://ajerseyguy.com/?p=5238 Hopefully, this guy is full of feces. If not, is this the event that rids us of Father Biondi? Probably not, but not being mentioned is a little scary.

AlumniFan Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Why would Marquette push for Creighton over us? Obviously because they want exposure in that basketball rich recruiting environment of....Omaha? This really does not make sense unless one assumes that Marquette looks at SLU and says, "SLU is really coming on strong in terms of commitment to basketball, we don't want to have to compete with them, but Creighton, although a good program, doesn't have the high end potential that SLU has, at least on paper." That is the only thing that makes sense to me. Getting to Omaha is not easier than getting to St. Louis. There is no historic rivalry there to the extent that there is with SLU. Creighton will not be as big of a draw as SLU would be, especially in Milwaukee. And Marquette doesn't have nearly the focus on recruiting students from Omaha relative to St. Louis.

brianstl Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 This is BS. We all know the new conference will include Dayton as the flagship program and preseason champions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JettFlight5 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 This is BS. We all know the new conference will include Dayton as the flagship program and preseason champions. Dayton was left out because of the extremely high cost of reprinting all their "Preseason National Championship" Banners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kshoe Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 This is the same guy who broke the original C7 news. Hope he is wrong. He may have broke the original C7 news but pretty much everything he has written since then has been wrong. For example, he was the one that wrote that Cinci and UConn could join the 10 basketball only schools in the new conference. I don't put much stock in it.

TRN Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Once again - blah, blah, blah. I'm gonna keep enjoying this season and not give a **** about this BS talk. Go Bills in 2013!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Once again - blah, blah, blah. I'm gonna keep enjoying this season and not give a **** about this BS talk. Go Bills in 2013!! Sage advice, besides I heard through a convoluted grapevine they're adding Zaga, St. Marys, and Portland to truly make it a national conference. That means the A-10 stays intact and will have a higher RPI than the C7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLUDrew Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 If this is true, it does mean the end of the program, so lets enjoy this the ride this year.

TRN Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Yep, we're giving up men's bball and putting our new arena in mothballs if we don't get in. Might as well close down the university and sell off the property, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheeseman Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 My head is spinning over this whole issue - I have no idea who is right or who is wrong anymore. Right now I just want to know the outcome. If VCU and Dayton stay in the A10 and we have to stay then I guess we could be OK - not great. Why would Memphis or Cincy join the A10 - they still have football to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OkieBilliken Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I would hate to lose the opportunity to play Georgetown and Marquette and continuing with X and Butler but Seton Hall, St. Johns, Providence, DePaul??? They all seem to have alot more downs than ups in the recent past. Is there a BCS team that has underachieved and been more anonymous than DePaul in this century?

JMM28 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 For years I have considered DePaul a sleeping giant. At some point, a sleeping giant is just dead though. I think DePaul is very close to dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
