...everyone who believed and talked-up all the hype about the Big East
being split-up just because the Big Tenth cleared its throat for a
wishful, misguided, and arrogant thought... BWAAAAAAA !!!

Over and over, I said it would not happen but noooo... no one wanted
to get onboard with that. Oh well, you can always hope and pray the BE
will be disbanded next year... LOL

The above rant is meant in the most punkish manner possible. :D

The only reason the BE isn't breaking apart is because nobody wants
their teams. You honestly think that any BE team would turn down such
an invite??

The closest thing they have to a major team, West Virginia, would leap
at the chance to join either the Big Ten or Atlantic Coast. They would
not even take a full day to think about whether or not to accept.

LOL, the #1 "BgE Breakup" hype-ster steps forward. You don't know what
offers, feelers, were extended behind closed doors. If no one in the
BTen was interested, why all the fan and media hype for the BgE. You
guys had the BgE split open, divided, and dissected in so many
different ways and combinations it was ridiculous.

And, as I said to you a hundred times this past spring, ANY BgE team
would turn down ANY invite.

The arrogance of the whole idea was out-of-touch. I think the BTen is
now a little more in touch with reality.

Eight months ago I repeatedly said the BgE would not be broken up. I
said it did not make sense for even one team to accept an offer for
any reason other than pure money. But hey, don't you dare believe a
word of what someone says. You know better than that.

I guess eight months is too long for your memory. How about something
novel and new like, oh heck, I dunno, a BCS birth and WINNING A
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. This time around, please think about what I'm

would turn down invitations to join the B10 is hillarious.

Did any BgE team even express an interest? It wasn't much if any.

While the BTen would not be interested in taking any of the lesser
programs right now in the BgE, I do believe they were interested in
one or two of the top teams.

The BgE powers that be stepped in to short-circuit any budding offers,
and one could argue BgE basketball was the conferences saving grace.

But, please, don't tell me the BTen was not interested or no BgE
school would turn down an offer. That's just too arrogant.

That same arrogance, the way the BTen went about, is one reason their
little cou'de gra failed for the most part. They can thank Nebraska
for helping them save some face.

I'm trying to think of a single reason a Big East team wouldn't
immediately accept an offer from the Big 10 ... can't think of one. And
i'm pretty smart, you know.

Your smarts like to fail you, on purpose. Other than money, why would
any BgE team go to an already bloated conference like the BTen. So
they can make their chances for a BCS birth even that much more
difficult? If you're truly interested in a championship, such a move
comes with high risk.

Boston College, for example -- what has moving to the ACC done for
them. I guess they're raking in all of those ACC big bucks, but where
are they as a serious, respected, college football team. I felt like
they had become a national power during those last years in the BgE,
but those days are now hopelessly gone. Bridges are burned, true
colors were revealed, and no BCS conference should want them. They
should feel lucky each year the ACC does not kick them out.

Rutgers has openly expressed interest since the conference added Penn
State. They have even sent promotional materials to the B10 offices
stating as such. Pitt has also expressed interest previously.

Yeah, I'm sure basketball really matters to the B10. That's why they
