I kinda chalked it up as an interesting fact. Maybe we are way underestimating the c7's love of privacy (this would hurt VCU's chances obviously)?


I posted about the FoIA and a few other things regarding inviting a public school to the conference. Most people dismissed it, but I think they underestimate the power of privacy while the C7 does not.

I like that decision by the law firm. No need to have people saying anything right now. Just let the lawyers handle their business behind the scenes and don't make any announcements until things are in a good position to do so.

Speaking of the lawyers, is it just me or does there seem to be a high percentage of attorneys on this board?

Technically, the Catholic 7 could play as a 7 team league next season in basketball, but that would cause scheduling problems. Schools such as Butler, Xavier, Dayton, Saint Louis, Marquette, Richmond and Creighton have emerged as the leading candidates to join the new league.

I guess we got kicked out of the 7. :(

Sucks that you Marquette guys are on the outside looking in :roll:

Technically, the Catholic 7 could play as a 7 team league next season in basketball, but that would cause scheduling problems. Schools such as Butler, Xavier, Dayton, Saint Louis, Marquette, Richmond and Creighton have emerged as the leading candidates to join the new league. But to do so on such short notice will include severe exit fees from the conferences (primarily the Atlantic 10), which the Catholic 7 schools might be willing to produce.

At least we're a leading candidate, maybe DePaul will stick their necks out for us.

You'd think "a Jersey guy" would know that Seton Hall is an original member and that Villanova joined a year later...
