Possible Expansion Scenario

[BCPanther]

if Summit took Chicago State or Garbage teams like that.

NDSU would be gone in a heartbeat. believe that.

I suppose the WAC would take you...

Chicago State has been kicked out of the Summit League once. They're not going to bring them back. That's a major reason their in the WAC in the first place.

This league dropped the ball having Loyola join in the first place. Name any mid-major school in a major market to have a successful basketball program not named St. Joe's?

I'm waiting.

Butler?

Milwaukee. A Sweet 16 is a Sweet 16, and Loyola was a pin cushion in the Horizon League. Saying we'd be bad for the MVC because another city school in Loyola is bad for the MVC is like saying Valpo would be bad because they're a small town private school in Indiana and the last time the MVC added one of those they regretted it.

Dumbass logic.

Milwaukee has been irrelevant since Pearl.

My point is that yes mid-majors in big cities can surprise here and there, but is hard to sustain success.

Let's just get this decision over with please. The posturing by the Milwaukee, NDSU, Valpo, and Murray fans selling a message board as to why they should be included (like we have any say in the matter) is getting old.

Apparently, its over. Valparaiso the only invite according to WMBD out of Peoria. What a major disappointment.
