Message: [QUOTE="tzznandrew, post: 2142087, member: 168"] Let's put it this way: if Memphis kept Calipari, would they prefer CUSA or the AAC? If we were in our mid-2000s heydey, would you prefer the Big East, or the MVC? For Wichita State, this is a pretty easy answer. This is a team that, in a real conference (and though a down year, the AAC still qualified as one) would have gotten a 4-5 seed, and thus likely a S16 rather than R32. And, if they got there, perhaps could have broken through to the E8, given they got paired with the best 2-seed. Dominating bad conferences alone isn't a proposition most schools want. They want to sell tickets, get higher seeds, and make deeper tournament runs. The MVC doesn't do that. [/QUOTE]
