They haven't been relevant in any sport in the last 5 years (besides women's bball).
If this was the ACC or the old Big East it's a no brainer. Now? It looks desperate.
Hopefully the don't become too "big time" to schedule us a home and home every year.

I get why they are excited. Most of them only care about basketball and it’s a good move for them, for basketball. It is also where they seen all of there success as a program. I think most think they will return to that level of success. Is it delusional? Yes. But it is really all they have to get excited about. I think Hurley will improve the program but I think he would have did that in any conference.
