No. 

 

Best case scenario some BE teams are left behind like Butler and a few others and we are able to pick them up.  Imagine dropping Lasalle, Fordham, and Duquesne.  And picking up Butler, Creighton, DePaul Seton hall, and throw in Wichita st.

 

This league would be much stronger looking like this. 

29 VCU

33 CREIGHTON

70 BUTLER

74 MASON

76 JOEYS

78 DAYTON

99 BONNIES

110 LOYOLA

114 SLU

116 GW

127 DAVIDSON

129 WICHITA ST 

134 RHODY

143 duquense

204 SETON HALL

205 umass

224 fordham

240 RICHMOND

241 lasalle

More likely the Big East cherry picks 3 or 4 big city, basketball centric schools from the AAC and hopefully a couple from the A10 like SLU and Dayton to go to 16 like the SEC or even 18 schools like the Big 10 .... just my very uneducated opinion.

Name one example in the history of college basketball where a conference kicked out its bottom dwellers.  Everyone always suggest this, but it’s just not a reality.
