re: 7 Big East basketball schools leaving

Those were all just small moves compared to a whole conference dissolving. 7 teams just left a conference....7!! Now the Big East is literally a dead conference. Now the real games begin. Every move up to this point has been nothing compared to whats about to happen. The big shift is about to happen!

Have you ever seen how dominos actually work? Pretty sure the first one in the set was Nebraska going to the Big Ten.

That happened mostly because of the Big XII South and Texas in particular dictating to the rest of the conference, which started with conference alignment and the death of the Nebraska-Oklahoma annual rivalry game.

Since all of that happened because the Texas 4 joined the Big 8, and that happened when the SWC broke up after Arkansas left for the SEC--this all must be Arkansas' fault.

Or going even further back: if Tulane and metro schools hadn't left the SEC, the SEC wouldn't have had an open spot for Arkansas.

This is all Tulane's fault, and interestingly they will end up one of the most screwed in all of this.
