Now, you are telling them that they are second class citizens? Who in the C7 have been more successful than them? Certainly not Depaul, Seton Hall, Providence, and St John's. I don't think we have. You could make a solid case that Nova and Gtown haven't. Why create ill will when we are starting up a NEW conference. Those schools are charter members. Who cares if that's how the Big Ten and PAC whatever did it. Those are establish conferences. They are greedy football schools. I thought we were better than that. I hope this is a case of ESPN trying to create ill will between us to try to hurt Fox and the report is not true.
Hey, if they don't want to make more money in a higher profile league, more power to them.
