New Big East for everything but football...and Mountain West for football. I think it's a decent plan. I believe us and Cincy could get football-only spots in the MW as they would probably allow us the Hawaii rule due to geography. We would help their conference brand-wise and with eastern TV. They would help us by allowing us to keep our football at basically the same level while upgrading our basketball while we wait for a better offer (which we would make clear with them). We would have to give travel subsidies, but we would make much more with the NBE so that would be ok.
The divisions would look like this:
Mountain: UConn, Cincy, Boise State, Wyoming, Air Force, New Mexico, Colorado St.
West: San Jose St., Utah St., UNLV, Fresno St., Nevada, SDSU, Hawaii
Possible schedule down the road in this alignment: NC State, @BC, Illinois, @Indiana, Cincy, @ Boise State, Air Force, @Wyoming, New Mexico, @Colorado St, @UNLV, Nevada
This would pave the way for NBE basketball, which hopefully would still be a massive double round robin with Cincy (22 games), which would leave us with 9 OOC games (3 tournament, Syracuse @MSG, 2 decent h/h, 3 pay games).
