As has been expected for the past month, VCU will announce as soon as this week that they will be joining the A10 as it’s 14th member. The A10 had been in discussions with Butler, VCU and GMU for some time. When Temple left for the Big East, Butler was first tabbed as a replacement. [...]
As expected, Butler is finally ready to join the Atlantic 10, to replace departing Temple who is headed to the Big East. Butler will join the A10 for the 2013-2014 season, which would be the first without Temple in the A10. The addition of Butler comes at a time when the conference has also considered adding [...]
Conference USA continues to stockpile schools. It’s hard to imagine that just a few weeks ago, a merger with the Mountain West, combining the 8 MWC schools with the 8 CUSA schools was on the table. CUSA has taken their expansion a step further, going beyond the 12 school total they were set to have [...]
When the Atlantic 10 learned it has lost it’s keystone program, Temple, to the Big East, in 2013, the conference knew it needed to do something bold to replace them. But sometimes, when losing a school of so much importance, a single addition isn’t enough. So what’s better than adding Butler, a 2 year final [...]
In recent weeks, we’ve seen all sorts of CAA realignment action hitting the public. But maybe “action” is too strong a word as it’s been more of a political spin game. First we had news that Georgia St. was on the Sun Belt radar…which then turned into “the Sun Belt had agreed to a vote [...]
You can go home again. And in more desperate times for the Big East, Temple was able to get something they couldn’t in the past: all-sports membership. Temple had been part of the Big East discussions ever since the defections of Syracuse and Pitt. But when the Big East opted for UCF, Houston and SMU [...]
So the biggest news from yesterday is that the Pac-12 has opted to remain at 12. That alone will slow up any movement in other conferences. But it was quite an interesting day, with many twists and turns. To sum up the day, here’s a rough timeline of the conference realignment news: Timeline for Tuesday, [...]
New England will have a third FBS level football school, joining Boston College and UConn in the highest level of college football. Per MAC sources and reported on the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the MAC and UMass will hold a joint press conference on Wednesday to make the official announcement. The move has been expected for [...]
My take is simple: if you have problems with your administration, don’t use the media…keep it behind the scenes. You can bet that Majerus would not be complaining about “east coast airports” if St. Louis were in the Big East instead of Marquette. The Billikens would still have to fly to 12 east coast cities [...]
Interesting call. The league is leaving a city, Philadelphia, where it has 3 members for a city 75 miles away from it's closest member, Richmond.
