Looks like Woken is the source lol
I get that but all other members of the BE would not.bring on Memphis. I'd rather play Memphis in bball than DePaul, Butler, Seton Hall.
Memphis to the Big East would not be until 2027 at the earliest.

That may be the way the P4 views any Big East school. Why bother?We shouldn’t be doing any favors for AAC schools.
I dont get the appeal of Memphis for the BigE.
It would have to be pro rata and a 30 million exit fee or no deal.That’s because there is none.
We get Memphis and less money. That’s the pitch.
Memphis doesn't move the needle for me. And, I don't want to get rid of the round robin BE format. To enhance the BE media contract, I would advise the BE schools to schedule marquis OOC games that media buyers want similar to what UConn is doing for this year.
And it has a history of playing loose with the rules*. Doesnt seem like a cultural fit with the existing members.I don't see the Big East being interested in Memphis at all. BE is a conference of Catholic/private basketball schools. UConn is in because it was a founding member of the original BE conference and has basketball rivalries and is a basketball blue blood. Perhaps another flagship basketball school or former member of the Big East. Memphis is neither private nor former BE nor flagship nor blueblood.
Chin just fixed the glitch.Keep the round robin. Eliminate DePaul from the schedule.
Give DePaul the Milton treatment from Office Space. Just remove them from the schedule.

For FB, they are probably among the top 5 non-P4 schools.Made your post a little better.
Worked admirably before… have to see if Mike has any magic left:Well this would definitely be the time to get out of the American. What next? Get Klivakoff or Larry Scott to advise on expansion/ media strategy?
