Conference shakeup
Posted: Sat Mar 05, 2005 11:58 pm
I am just curious as to what it takes for a division 1-AA team like Marshall to become a division 1 team.
Would there be anyway to convince teams like Dayton, Depaul and Xavier to join in a conference with us if they had to in both basketball and football. In basketball it would be a step back for each. In football a sizeable step up. Just curious. I think we could sell Cincinnati on being in a conference like that for both sports.
(The entire reason I ask is becuase in NCAA basketball 2005 you can make your own conferences. I added Dayton, Depaul, Cincinnati, Xavier and IPFPW. I think Western Kentucky as well. I think that this sort of thing would absolutely help our basketball squad but cripple our football team that has grown in recent years.)
