    Great move, if true, that is. Gotta' move quickly to stem the bleeding. That is, until the next time the BE schools want to bleed off more teams from the A10.

    God I hate that conference.....Villanova back in the early years, then Pitt. They waited a while and then siphoned VaTech, WVU and Rutgers off us in one fell swoop. Now it's two more premiere teams, with the defection of SLU and Dayton looming down the road..

    To be fair, if we produced over the last 7 years, we'd be woo'ed and wouldn't care about the schools we'd leave behind.

    If it is true that Davidson could be next, the A10 will be quite good.

    Watching CBI GM vs Santa Clara.  GM's gym is a high school gym with the exit doors under the baskets.  Seats 1,500.  Wow. Welcome to the A10.

    That's not where they normally play. Patriot center or whatever it's called seats 10K.

    Re: George Mason to join the A10

    Thx for the clarification. I guess its good to have a small arena that you can pack for 'down' games. Hopefully this is what the Palumbo will become if we start winning at the Consol...

    GM's regular arena was booked for another event as I understand it. When I first saw the venue, I thought here is a facility smaller than ours.
