Dayton or VCU would both provide value to this conference. More than most. I think it's a mistake to sit back and wait for another move to happen. UConn may have sucked for the past 5 years, but they are a state school with a very rich basketball tradition. Let's get past the whole "who cares?" sentiment. It's a loss for our conference. Time to move forward, not stay the same and hope nothing else bad happens.

We aren't a big, mighty conference who can throw money at schools to lure them here. Time to think outside of the box. Or else this conference will die if/when we or another big program decides to jump ship.

We have leverage in this conference. Bohn or someone needs to push the needle or else we'll just remain a conference for misfit toys.
