Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 4658715, member: 1414"] I agree with most of this. I'm [U]arguing for the Big XII[/U]. I don't have any remaining nostalgia for the Big East as it is now. The main benefit to me is road games at PC are close to me. We had the opportunity to get more money in a league that had football and we took it. When they payout wasn't good enough on renegotiation, and we couldn't get T3 rights for the WBB team, we bailed. It was the right move both times. I agree, for a hoops only school like WSU, the Big East was better than the American even in 2013. No doubt. We aren't one, so it was irrelevant to UConn what the basketball payout was. Same situation now. Even if the Big XII's actual "basketball" payout is less than the Big East's (it could be, who knows), it doesn't matter because we can get the football money. If both leagues wanted Gonzaga, then that would be relevant. [/QUOTE]
