Not sure it took that long for XU to become attractive...It took that long for a major conference to divorce football and basketball to be invited. Without football XU had nowhere to go when the BE still had football and no other P5 was going to take them without football either. Remember football drives all of the P5 conferences not basketball and the BE used to be part of the P6.
