[HoosierPal]

So who do you want? 

 

[brianstl]

Belmont and see if Wichita State is looking for an exit plan from the American.

[AGB91]

Belmont

[wgstl]

If they aren’t a top 100 program in net since net was introduced, I want no part. 

[Lord Elrond]

Belmont would fit in nicely

[GOSLU68]

Bradley is more like our other universities

[AnkielBreakers]

To drop the historical bottom 5 teams from the A10, and bring in Gonzaga, Witchita State, Belmont, Saint Mary’s, Murray state, and SF.

I think we need another team with the Rams as their mascot.

Nova Scotia Agricultural College is 'the Rams' (also known as Dallhousie University).  They do have a basketball team.  Perfect fit.

Wichita State

Belmont

Iona ( Slick Rick already said they need to be in a league like the A-10)

[Dr Bird]

Belmont adds Nashville to the conference.   That would be fun.

Yes, that would.

Not trying to state the obvious but unless if it’s one these, heck no:  Belmont, Murray state, Wichita state, temple. 
 

anything else is a disappointment. Iona’s problem is they were nothing before Rick, and will be nothing after Rick. Also No thanks on another 2k arena.

They have been to 10 tournaments since 2000, but I do agree that their facilities are still subpar even after recent upgrades.

Belmont

COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON

 I mean, the idea of having the city of Charleston is nice, but from a basketball stand point I don't get this one.

Certain board members live in Charleston.

[basebill123]

Colorado State

[cgeldmacher]

 Not saying they would be my pick, but I wonder if they are considering Vermont?

[Young Charles]

I'd be in for Belmont, UAB, or Wichita State.

I’m selfish. Actually they have had some decent teams. Made the dance in 2017. And they are on the Atlantic Ocean.

They’ve averaged 160 in kenpom over the last decade, a lot better than I would have thought. In 2017 they got as high as 87th.
