There is no possible scenario where the Big East is created (something that was going to happen because football) and Creighton and Butler don't join that league.

I don't agree. Creighton hates the increased travel cost. Lets say for very realistic purposes that the MVC added Butler and Valpo years and years ago and broke off into divisions. Why would Creighton leave a four bid league that produced three final fours between WSU and Butler in recent years with plenty of other Sweet 16's in the conference with even more reduced travel costs then what they had at 10 members to fly across the country to play effing St. John's and POS DePaul? No way they leave that situation in the MVC. if they don't leave I doubt Butler leaves. If Creighton goes I agree Butler would have gone. You forget without Creighton and Butler in the Big East the Big East wouldn't have had that many more bids than the MVC over the same time frame. It would have been a lateral move at the time with increased costs. Financially it wouldn't have made sense because the exposure, bids, and final fours were already in the MVC. They would of had revenue from a great TV contract, as well as sponsrship increases

You can think it's realistic if you want, but you'd be wrong.


A-10 or a five bid league? Easy. the bids and exposure would get marketing too. Stop.


NCAA bids by league, since 2000

2000: A10-3; MVC-2
2001: A10-3; MVC-2
2002: A10-1; MVC-2
2003: A10-3; MVC-2
2004: A10-4; MVC-2
2005: A10-1; MVC-3
2006: A10-2; MVC-4
2007: A10-2; MVC-2
2008: A10-3; MVC-1
2009: A10-3; MVC-1
2010: A10-3; MVC-1
2011: A10-3; MVC-1
2012: A10-3; MVC-2
2013: A10-5; MVC-2
2014: A10-6; MVC-1
2015: A10-3; MVC-2
2016: A10-3; MVC-2
2017: A10-3 ; MVC-1

Does that take into account the best A10 schools (Xavier and Butler) are no longer members? And you also need to consider there are more schools to feed in the A10.

I bet the MVC is getting a higher share of NCAA unit money per school than the A10 has - thanks largely to the Shox deep runs.

And, Butler never would have been a member if they were scooped up by Butler in the mid 2000's. Historical records would look different
