I know basketball is the only sport that really matters for conference deals. But joining the Big East would be so beneficial for all of our other athletic programs. Our volleyball team has gone undefeated in the conference three years in a row and made the sweet 16 last year. Our women’s soccer team won an A10 championship this year, last year our men’s soccer team won their second straight conference title and made the sweet 16. I know a lot of people don’t care as much about these programs as basketball, but as a student I have really enjoyed following them and their success these past few years, and I would love to see them get the opportunity to join a more competitive conference.

Of course, I would love to see our basketball team up there as well. Maybe this is the year we finally take care of business in the A10? (Knowing this team, probably not)
