Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

Yes, I've ranted on how much I hate the Atlantic 10.

Yes, I was wrong. I think the Big East would be a great destination for Saint Louis U, and I hope it's the case.

There's a lot of things for the Big East to do right now.

Me ripping the A-10 was not meant to attack any school or fanbase. I think all of the teams have some good stuff going for them.

Some of us will be playing in a different league for awhile.

More changes coming I'm sure. Fans of SLU, Dayton and Richmond are understandably anxious but all indications are that 2 of the 3 will be in the Big East eventually.

Yep... its just time to relax and enjoy the piece and quiet. watch some lacrosse finals, MLB or triple crown races. In reality the BE has one or two big announcements to make (next years scheduling) these announcements are due most likely in June. when you see the scheduling you should get a pretty good grasp of where they plan on taking these things.. expansion, associate members wise... I agree with marq that expansion is more than likely going to happen and i'm pretty confident that SLU is in the catbird seat.

As a SLU fan i don't think we have too much to complain about. While we are not in the Big East we are in the next best spot, we are returning a very solid squad. We have a good recruiting class coming in, and are picked as low as 5th in the A-10 for next year assuring the boys will come in with something to prove. The school is on an up and is poised to do well regardless. When and doubt win, win and keep winning, that is the best way to force the BE's expansionist hand.

Coach Crews will like having extra motivation for the troops. Feels strange to say Coach Crews without that other word before it. Recruiting class looks like a Majerus class.
