With the American and the Sunbelt and (potentially) the MWC announcing an expansion agenda, could the NBE look to sponsor football?
Presently, the NBE has Georgetown, Villanova, Butler, and UConn who spend on football (either FCS or FBS). As has been stated, the spending on the FCS level is still a healthy investment.
What if a conference like CUSA is left mortally wounded when the AAC and the Sunbelt take from them? Or, if the AAC takes from the MWC (who takes from CUSA)? And, after all that, what if CUSA still splits?
Can the NBE step in and announce intentions to bring Georgetown, Villanova, and Butler to FBS; and partner with the leftovers of CUSA?
A conference consisting of UConn, UMass, Villanova, Georgetown, Butler, FIU, MTSU, and WKU, is probably a dream scenario for David Benedict.
Then just dig that old Big East football logo out of the trash, even if you have to buy it from Mike Aresco.
The Zombie Western Athletic Conference is doing just that. The NBE should contact them and discuss logistics.
It's not P5 but neither is NBE hoops.
