Not to turn this into another expansion thread, because we all know the arguments(we don't need to expand, let's wait and see what happens with the other conferences), but this is the cry reason why I favor Dayton and Wichita St over St. Louis or Richmond. Cool arenas, support from the fans, and support from the administration. That's my three keys for a successful addition. With the strength of the conference, I believe those schools can turn into winners.

Yeah I guess so. Perhaps because they are playing it on a Sunday after Christmas?

Creighton also has a first team All America on the roster so the fans should have high hopes / interest.

Really? Even after the renovation? Don't they have a cool bar/foodie area looking over one of the baselines? I'll be there in the spring for a niece's graduation so I can check it out for myself.

Didn't know there was a renovation. Will gladly retract the statement Caribou's field trip for this "niece" gives us first-hand information.

They sold out Chicago State ?

Why would that game sell out before the other Big East games?

Ths City blows, the University is pretty good--becoming the centerpiece of the city because so many of the industries have left.

Did you have to buy that game to get the others?

My guess is they have different price level for games. Just like MU has three different price levels.
