Message: [QUOTE="FfldCntyFan, post: 4665146, member: 71"] This is about survival of the entire athletic department. I realize that within the preconceived notion that you are allowing to cloud your thought process the joy thing you see is "[I]Playing in Big East good. Playing in Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas bad" [/I]but the reality is there are considerably better names, vastly superior brands and significantly more financial benefits to the B-12 than there was in the AAC. Comparing the AAC to the B-12 is similar to comparing the MAAC to the Big East. If the coaching holds up its end of the bargain our men's basketball program will be able to succeed in the B-12 every bit as well as we would in the BE. The added exposure and resources will actually help in ways BE membership never could. [/QUOTE]
