Message: [QUOTE="SubbaBub, post: 3721234, member: 523"] Only three of those programs have mattered for any stretch in the last 30 years, the others have a new lease on life as the NBE is still 3 shades lighter than the OBE or the expanded BE of the 2000's. When WV and CIncy or Miami () leaving gives your program a chance to crack the top half of the conference, you don't get to claim some sort of legacy. All these schools passed ahead of the STJ/SH/PC's of the world in the EBE. Marquette (without D Wade) and Depaul (ever) get a shot at the NCAA. That alone says volumes. As for XCB, they earned their chances to play in a better league. We'll see how they do long term. [/QUOTE]
