Message: [QUOTE="DarthGrumpy, post: 3809817, member: 2141"] I do not believe that the new Big East will expand. If they do, I see them taking two steps. First, the addition will not be a college with a BCS football team, such as UMass. They don't want to mirror the old Big East's errors and will not want to give that much power two schools (UConn +). Second, no disrespect to Dayton, but the conference already has Xavier, just 45 miles away from Dayton, and Butler, which is only 100 miles away, in that part of the Midwest. I think if they do expand it will be to the south with either Richmond or Davidson, both have decent basketball cred, are not BCS football teams, are in growing markets, and match well with the profile of the other conference members, excluding UConn.
