I would love it if we either kicked them out of the conference now so they would have to be an independant next year or if we keep them in the HL but not let them be eligible to represent the HL in post season play--don't even let them participate in the HL tournament. |

I think the HL should seriously consider not letting Butler participate in the HL tournament. It would guarantee that someone besides Butler would make it to the NCAA tournament. If Butler is going to be as good as you think, that will give the HL 2 NCAA tournament bids next year if you get an at large bid. The best part of that is if Butler makes a nice run in the NCAAs, they still don't get to keep a dime of that NCAA tournament money since they are walking away from the HL. It will make a nice going away present for us.

all these comments remind me of the fellow making minimum wage who thinks the guy who makes a million bucks is just too affluent. if the a-10 was after us ( now there is a joke) we would go in a heartbeat. we could have been a successful program in this league but we chose to be mediocre. lets not criticize a program that has got the kind of success we would like to have.

Well said, Keith. I was anticipating your input on this! Can't blame Butler for being good. |

Division I College sports are not an area of life where people are exactly nice and kind to each other. Let's face it after BU leaves the HL has no reputation so who gives a rat's hind end what the league's reputation is because we kicked BU out of the conference? I say they chose their own death from this league so screw 'em.

Well said by Keith.
Obviously we're down to 5 baseball schools. Does Wright State consider moving to the MVC?

Just listened to Bluejay Banter, a weekly sports radio show in Omaha. Their President was on, and he said that he had discussions with Atlantic 10 member officials: "If you ever expand, think of Creighton." Then he went on to say that he had spoken with Jesuit university officials and said "If you guys implode, meaning the Big East, I want to make sure that if things change, Creighton would be at the table in discussions." Sounds pretty clear cut and dry that he has reached out to the A10 and Big East - if they're expanding, he wants in. This radio show aired April 30th. bluejaybanter.podomatic.com/ |
