Around the Big East

Works for me! Let’s move UCONN out and VCU in!
Even if Yukon leaves, there is no need to jump and add another program right away. Do the necessary homework (which I would think they are doing) before jumping into it.

One concern I have is while unlike UConn, they don’t have a FBS football program (they actually don’t have a football program at all) they like UConn are a State School.

Oh! I didn’t think they were a state school. Certainly don’t have the outsized budget of UCONN but yeah…..only similar schools to St John’s, Marquette’s, Georgetown, etc.
 
Meh, VCU hasn't made the Sweet 16 since 2011. Gonzaga has made it 8 times since 2015. Gonzaga has overall been better than UConn since 2015, and without UConn's championship it wouldn't even be close.

There's some UConn insiders saying this will be the week. Hoping the Big East is ready to counter with a Gonzaga announcement. Can't lose too much momentum now with ongoing TV negotiations and St. John's / Georgetown ready to breakout.

I just don’t know how they work out the travel with Gonzaga. Especially with the non revenue sports. VCU doesn’t present any of this issues although they are not the Program Gonzaga is. I might go Dayton here. Anthony Grant has built a nice program there and they would probably be able to up their game even more once they have the revenue streams of the Big East.

I agree with you on the part about the Gonzaga non-revenue sports which is something I have been mentioning in the past.
