If Boise and Air Force Say No...

Would Houston and SMU even want to join, if the others didn't? Are more teams about to leave the Big East?

I think it all hinges on what Mizzu wants to do. If they bolt for the SEC, the B12 will probably raid the BE of a few schools. Looks like the BE is now the conference on the verge of dissolving.......

Mizzou stated they are in the Big until 2012 was the last thing I read. Not saying that can't change. For once can things just fall our way.

We'll gladly take a BE invite. Travel partners for SMU?

After thinking about it for a while, I don't think Boise will turn down the invite. They hate the MWC's T.V. deal. The Big East keeps it's AQ status for at least a few more years. If more teams should leave the Big East, they will still be able to snatch the top non-AQ teams to fill in the empty spots. When it is all said and done, the Big East will be made up of the best programs from the MWC/C-USA conference, and the Big East leftovers that couldn't escape. Will it still be an AQ conference? I don't know.

I do believe that this new C-USA/MWC conference will want a team in DFW, and that's good for North Texas.
