If we move to the BE, we will never be hoping for a 4 year string. Regardless of the recruits, we will never consistently be part of the top 2-4 BE teams.

4 years ago...did anyone on this board think that we would be inline for our 4th NCAA post season?

This formula doesn't seem to bother Gonzaga.
Butler and Creighton came from worse conferences than the A10 and they don't seem to be having a lot of trouble consistently being part of the top 2-4 BE teams. Why couldn't we? It would only improve our recruiting. I think that's a defeatist attitude to think we wouldn't be able to compete in the Big East. What do any of those schools have that we don't? Football? No. Great facilities? No. Great fan bases? No. In fact only Creighton and Marquette had better average attendance than we did last year.
