I cannot at all see Ricky accepting the asswhippings they will take in their first year in the BEC. I see him leaving quickly for lesser competiton like UNLV or UCLA. :laugh: and UL becoming the bottom tier team of the Big East.

Meanwhile, Cal will still get "his" guys to come and the Tigers will be the new Kings of the NCUSA. The competition will be weak compared to the past 10 years or even the 4 years in the Great Midwest conference. That will be a big + for us. That will allow us to get big games for nation tv exposure against teams from BIG 12, BIG 10, SEC, and ACC and BEC to improve our SOS. True, our home attendance will suffer big against teams like Rice, Tulsa, USM, SMU, Marshall, and Tulane. Hopefully UTEP and UAB will be good competition for the Tigers to have for tv games to also help our RPI.

Life will be good for the Tigers and Cal, compared to life in Hell for Ricky P and his Loserville Redbirds. :laugh:

Tigerjay4ever, you continue to prove yourself to be a retarded idiot. Go back into your hole and watch a Miami game. NO ONE cares about what you think or say on here. You are a joke to everyone, you bandwagon jumping piece of crap.

Once again SEM pulls his punches. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I wish for once he'd speak his mind.

It doesn't matter if we stayed in CUSA, go to the Big East, or go to the Big Sky, Pitino came here to take us back to the top of the college basketball world, and it's apparent the train is now rolling; the Pitino Dynasty has begun.

We should have the #1 recruiting class next year; most definitely if you add in 6-9 Kansas transfer David Padgett who is sitting out this year. Pitino isn't going anywhere, and we will continue to reel in the top recruits.

The Big East should fear us in the coming years.

Quote:I know many Ville fans are pissed abour being "held back" for an extra year in C-USA and feel like Memphis was responsible, but I don't think at heart they really want to end the rivalry. Why aren't the A.D.'s talking?

But the fact is; your AD and President stayed so Louiseville wouldn't have to pay the Millions of Dollars in fines for leaving early. Rather than pay the agreed to early departure penalty they negotiated to stay and play the ESPN games for 4 years.

Weaseling out of those ESPN games by playing CUSA teams who previously weren't even in the CUSA was Jurichs way of getting back at R.C.!!!

Let's see if ESPN holds UC & Louiseville to the letter of the contract; it will be a great day in Tiger Land.

But all that said; I think Louiseville and UC will be very competitive in BB. Louiseville also has a chance to dominate in FB. USF has no chance in either; and will stink it up badly.
