Why would Creighton have any interest in joining that league?


Because the Big East name is wwwayyy bigger then the Missouri Valley Conference. A Big East/A10 merger would be a nice conference that would get multiple bids. The MVC is a one bid leauge with 2/3 teams in a great year. Joining that conference is a much better move then staying in the MVC.

They have a pretty good record of getting more than one team into the tourney on a consistent basis.

Joining a conference where their closest confernce mate is 470 miles away and fighting 22 other teams for a bid is better than their current situation?

Now the biggest question out of this is whats going to happen now after the Death of BEast?

Would B1G contiunes to expand and try to get to 16 by going after ACC again?

What about SEC, would they follow suit with the SEC Network only a year away by prying Duke/UNC?

What about the B12, That GOR protects them but we all know that Texas has enough money to get out
of that, are they going to make a move?

What about PAC 12, Would Larry Scott try to get more foothold on the East?

Which one is the next one to go, ACC or B12?

That is many questions to this ongoing nightmare in CFB world.
