Do SLU and Dayton stay in A-10 if not invited to Big East?

Postby Omaha1 » Sat Mar 16, 2013 12:42 pm

There is talk that the Missouri Valley wants to get one or both to replace Creighton if either isn't going to be added to the Big East. I have to think they would at least consider it as the A-10 is going to take a huge step back plus it has some really heavy losers at the bottom of the league.
Nebraska by birth, Creighton by choice.

Zero chance Dayton goes to MVC more alumni on east coast.

If Dayton goes anywhere it would be as a basketball only member of the old big east.

But no way no how does Dayton go to MVC.

It'd be interesting to see the leftovers form something like this to try to rival the Big East (assuming SLU and Dayton are gone):

VCU
Wichita St
Richmond
Davidson
Detroit
George Mason
La Salle
St. Joe's
Fordham (need NYC...I guess)
Duquesne
GW
Bradley

...maybe a combination of Drake, Siena, Valpo, Southern Illinois, Boston U, Charleston or something to get to 16.

There have been rumors of Wichita St & George Mason going to the A10 to replace the teams leaving for the Big East.
Not bad gets if it happens.

0% chance Slu or Dayton goes to the MVC...

Rumor has it that Bradley, Drake, and Evansville are thinking Horizon-
A-10's moves will depend on Slu being taken or not. If SLU stays they will take Valp-Loyola and Detrot. If Slue goes... They raid the colonial, the colonial conference may not survive this one.

Wichita State state will not be in the A-10 0%
