ESPN Article on Big East Catholic Schools

[IWB]

Look at what is out there for further BCS expansion.....

1) "IF" the Big 10 adds two more ACC schools, the ACC will take Cincy and UConn and the Big East would likely implode.

2) "IF" the Big 10 adds two more ACC schools at the same time the SEC adds two more ACC schools and the Big XII takes 5-6 ACC schools, then the ACC would likely implode.

#1 is the likely reality, but #2 is a possibility - does anyone really want to get rid of all of this before knowing that #2 won't happen?


If the big conferences expand again, either the Big East or the ACC will die. What if the catholic schools leave for hoops only, and the ACC dies? Do you really want to be in a hoops only conference looking over at the Big East who then has Boston College, Syracuse, Pitt, Duke and Wake Forest?

In all likelihood it won't happen, but what if it did?

I just don't see how doing anything now is the answer.
