If the NNBE was a league this year

[nelsonmuntz]

It would look like this:


1) Cincinnati
2) UConn
3) Temple
4) Memphis
5) UCF
6) USF
7) Tulsa
8) Tulane
9) Houston
10) SMU
11) ECU

4 tournament quality teams. UCF would get an NIT bid or something like it, and every other program completely sucks.

UConn has to massively upgrade its OOC to stay remotely relevant nationally in a league like this.

How many teams has the ACC sent to the tourney recently?

League of misfits. Two UCs battling for the top. Temple and Memphis have a chance to be pretty good. The rest are there to pad the record. Sounds good to me. Now improve both athletically and academically and be prepared for the next round of expansion.

It would look like this:


1) Cincinnati
2) UConn
3) Temple
4) Memphis
5) UCF
6) USF
7) Tulsa
8) Tulane
9) Houston
10) SMU
11) ECU



That list of opponents has a $10 a game ticket pricing written all over it.

 

[huskyharry]

don't forget that the extensive travel for this conference will be awful for the players as well.

But its the equal of the C7 and the programs they cherrypick!
