Re: Back to conference stuff

[richard l. kandell]

There now apparently is a newspaper article quoting the Seton Hall AD to the
effect that if Miami, Syracuse, & BC leave the BE, he has already had
discussions about the subject with the other 4 non-football playing members
and in all probability those 5 would leave the football schools and try to
establish a viable conference of non-football universities.  Clearly an
amalgam of BE, C-USA, & A-10 catholic colleges would easily yield such a
situation, creating the much anticipated all-holy league.

Also on another board the Memphis AD is openly discussing, albeit on a
hypothetical basis, the jump of the 3 BE schools to the ACC, and what the
result would be for C-USA and the remaining BE universities.  He seems to be
fairly explicit in that the combination would have 16 all-sports schools,
and he feels that an all-sports conference of either 9 or 12 of those
schools would be ideal.  He seems excited at the prospect.
