Message: [QUOTE="kibblesnbits, post: 3197223, member: 97"] By adding Wichita you could sell it as decreasing the overall travel and time out of classroom by adopting travel partners (UConn-PVD, StJ-SH, Nova-GT, X-Butler, Depaul-Marquette, WSU - Creighton). They could fly in and play a pair of partners on Th-Sat, Fri-Sun or Sat-Mon). Games between travel partners could fill in weeknight slots. In all but the last pair the schools are only a few hours apart. Using that approach would save a lot of money, particularly in non-revenue sports. However, lacking our BE history and still being the greatest outlier in either conference, I'm not sure it's worth it to Wichita to buy their way out of one in the "best of non-P5" category to join another.
