Solid program for that basketball conference, crushing blow for the MVC.

Wichita State is happy.

This puts the MVC over a Creighton barrel.

We laughed at the old Big East's lack of geography skills. Boise, et al. Omaha in the East? East of Lincoln

Have we found out yet what they're calling the old Big East, and does that transfer to Football too?

MVC has a great Commish, they will survive.

I know one thing, if you look at the catholic 7, from a sports point, what a horrible conference. They have 1 sport, and they aren't a great combination of programs. Most are mediocre, at best.

Correct. It will be a hell of a basketball league though.

I'm from Wichita and the Shocker fans are not happy at all about Creighton leaving. Ya it will help them win the conference a little easier, but it voids the conference of any credibility that they have had. Having wichita st. and Creighton at the top year in and year out gave the conference some value.

False

Those are FCS schools for football.

Football doesn't matter in that aspect. Doesn't affect anything.

Not so fast.. Marquette will always be competing. People forget they won a share of the title this year.

True with the name. And the Catholic school in the Gateway to the West, St. Louis, will likely be part of the Big East when they jump to 12 schools.
