Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 4280422, member: 1023"] I get why the NOOB would do it. Not sure I get what’s in it for Gonzaga. It sort of has a Butler redux feel. Added them because they went to 2 straight Championship games. Now they are sort of eh. I don’t quite get why the Zags would choose to join an east coast centric league. They have been incredibly successful where they are, playing local opponents and building a huge rep. In the NOOB they are at a huge disadvantage with the travel that doesn’t really even out. They need to travel 1500-3000 miles or more multiple times. Other teams go to them once each. I also have to assume this would be a basketball only deal. Can you imagine shipping your volleyball team across the country for a game? Baseball coming to Elliot for a weekend series? [/QUOTE]
