Shinola X Seton Hall X Onward Setonia

I thought the event was a great idea, I just think the timing and presentation may have been less than ideal. Trying to explain to my wife that we would need to leave University Day early, tell our 4 year old to skip the pumpkin painting and then pay $175 to head down to Bunny's for a meet and greet and autos that we had gotten for free for the past 10 years just wasn't a winning proposition.

The optics of taking the players off-site and charging money on the one day of the year where it's about "pirate family" was not great. I had to pass on it, unfortunately.

I would have rather just paid $75 and had a signed team poster shipped to me. That offer was not and still isn't available to me, which makes little sense imo.

Memphis, Tulane, USF, UTSA commit to AAC amid Pac-12 interest

I would take Boston College and Notre Dame if there was some national football conference established and all other sports remained in regional conferences with original rivals. I'm not a fan of huge state schools competing in the same conference as small private Catholic universities.
The bigger the better for me. More eyeballs mean more $$$.

College basketball braces for a fiasco of its own in the wake of UNLV QB Matthew Sluka quitting team midseason

A player quitting the team in the middle of an undefeated season is unprecedented, but multiple NIL agents shared accounts of similar financial promises not being kept behind the scenes in college basketball.​

I know there are a few that believe we should not be involved with dual football/basketball college type programs.

I am not one of those and may be in the minority but...,

I believe that a golden future belongs to The Big East if it can wait to pick off the more basketball centric college programs that are unwanted by the power football schools and create the best basketball conference in America with a strong base of traditional basketball powers (additional state schools preferred) while still maintaining an enjoyable football presence that generates additional league value through its media partners.

I believe that is a smart future forward if presented. It may just take patience as the insanity of these zany conference expansions keep separating rivalries.
