Jun 15th, 2012 | By Matt Peloquin | Category: America East Expansion & Realignment, CAA Expansion & Realignment, Featured News, NCAA Conference Expansion & Realignment, Patriot League Expansion & Realignment

With all the Big East moves making the most noise in the region, and then the A10 additions of Butler and VCU, it seemed that the CAA would be the next conference to make a move.

May 1st, 2012 | By Matt Peloquin | Category: Atlantic 10 Expansion & Realignment, CAA Expansion & Realignment, Conference USA Expansion & Realignment, Featured News, NCAA Conference Expansion & Realignment

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 [...]
