Did only the 5 remaining football schools vote on ECU? I think everyone who is leaving is voting yes. "yes team from _______, you may join our prestigious conference. (we will be the eff out of here long before you come aboard. Except the basketball schools we're effing over now. Oh and USF will be here too.)" Is Rutgers, Pitt, and Syracuse allowed to vote on such matters? I don't think so. I think UL, Cincy and UConn are even though all expect to be out the door.

Is there a Yosemite National Park University as well? At this point nothing with conference realignment will shock me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USF, CINCY, UCONN, and UL are the only teams left in this dumpster fire of a conference? And one of the 4 remaining teams (not us) will more than likely announce their departure this week? To fill the gaps we are pulling mid-majors from C.USA, the WAC, and the MAC. We also have a football coach with a terrible record who can most politely be described as a bumbling idiot and an AD who keeps asking the alumni for more money but won't take any tough questions until after the season is over. Is this the current situation? Edited November 27, 2012 by sloan1919 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big East will easily outperform that. Bronco Beat â€@IDS_BroncoBeat RT @murphsturph: Aresco says Boise State and San Diego State "are as committed as they’ve ever been" to Big East.
