Least surprising thing ever. I think Yormark is sincere about his idea, and I can't knock a guy for thinking about new ways of doing things, but it's always going to be an impossible sell to the Big XII ADs and presidents, and, of course, the media platforms. A basketball-driven school just doesn't represent enough of a value to any of those conferences or the media outlets to make give the idea any legs.

It's interesting how the relative lack of basketball's worth to the media platforms/networks is at once damning to schools and leagues like ours, but yet also saves the league from having to deal with this sort of departure.

Impressive work by John doing rapid fire previews of every Big East team (Seton Hall at about 1:35 in the video). John is optimistic about Seton Hall, he said earlier in the podcast that he's "done getting duped" by perceived low expectations of Seton Hall teams, and he's more bullish on Seton Hall than Butler, Villanova, Georgetown, and DePaul.
