Perhaps Dayton has little or no leverage acting alone. But teamed with three, or so, other dissatisfied schools that have aspirations similar to UD's would be a different story. This is politics. If three or four of the top schools took the initiative and were able to pull in another half dozen fence-sitters so as to have an effective voting block, I think the bottom feeders could be pressured.

Re politics again: A conference commissioner matters and can be influenced by the influential schools that push for change. The AAC's Mike Aresco is front and center 100% of the time pushing the AAC agenda. The AAC might not succeed in becoming the "Power 6" conference....but it won't be for lack of effort.

In my opinion, the A10 should work,...not to just get along, but....to become the best non-FB basketball conference in the country. That is not an unreasonable goal. It's doable. But not the way the A10 is loafing along. I think UD has a responsibility to work this issue. I don't see it happening.
