    Really no sense in keeping them around when the new teams will be in.

    the more teams that leave quicker, the more times marinate gets to tour cities of cusa teams and go for dinners at places hes never been to.

    ....and good breaking news. With the merger of CUSA and the MWC, they are going to come up with a new name for their conference. So with the name now abandoned, we can finally ditch this whole 'Big East' name and officially become Conference USA!

    Heck, since this has always been all about getting the basketball schools as much money from this conference realignment shuffle as possible....maybe we can use the CUSA name and rent out the Big East name to other conferences to use!:p

    I think he is stating to Pitt/Cuse and the ACC, what are you willing
    To pay to get out of your contract a year earlier. Name that price!!

    He's got his eyes on Gumbo (Tulane) and some juicy Oklahoma steaks (Tulsa). He's swing by and torment Temple just for the extra cheese steak sandwiches. I suspect even he can avoid the roadkill stew (ECU).
