This is great news. We were a mid major conference last year. We need some star power.

These midwestern shit holes ain’t cutting it. No offense to anyone who has to live there. It could always be worse.

No need for Dayton, 20 game round robin schedule is what the power conferences are gonna do.

Something that makes sense in college bball for once. Good to have Screw-Conn back. A brand name in the sport even with their recent decline. Now we need to kick their *sses on the court and in recruiting.

My bad, keeping round robin is a must. Expanding to 11 teams over 20 games is perfect. This feels right. Hope the conference schedule starts during the third week of December, not early December like the Big10 has been doing.

I would like to see the league play start in early December before I go south for the winter.  Ive been limited to early garbage games.  A little selfcentered  but f it.

Going to be even harder to escape the opening round Wednesday night of the BET as now even the 6th place team will be playing. Top 5 get a bye, bottom 6 play opening round with the 3 winners of those games joining top 5 in the quarterfinals.

those midwestern programs, with the exception of Depaul, have kept the conference respectable and have stronger fan bases than us.  What are you smokin dude? welcome back UCONN jerkoffs.

He also had a problem with Haiti being called a shithole.

If you’re keeping score at home:  the entire city if Jacksonville is illiterate, upstate New York is a trailer park, the entire state of Florida is disgraceful place to live, Pittsburgh and countless other cities and college towns are unlivable, and everything inbteeen the coast is a shithole—except Arkansas, Chicago, and Normal, Illinois. Oh, and Haiti is a bastion of progressive thought and a model success and most definitely not a shithole.

The buyout must be prohibitive or this will be a disaster. We’re throwing them a life preserver and they are capable of destroying us.

Florida has no excuse for being a shit hole. Haiti does, but that’s over your head.

Haiti's excuse is that a certain family from Arkansas sunk their claws into it.
