Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

From Bret McMurphy's discussion today about the NBC -Big East TV deal:

The new league, yet to be formed, is expected to have 12-to-14 members. The most likely candidates to join the Catholic schools, sources have told ESPN, are Butler, Xavier, Creighton, Dayton, Saint Louis, Richmond and VCU.

I can't see them adding both Richmond and VCU. If you are going to double up in a media market, Richmond is not the market to pick. Personally I pick VCU over U of Richmond for that market. If you are going to double up in a media Market it should be a large one (Chicago, NYC, Philly). If they decide to double up St. Joseph's is probably the best pick.

Villanova, one of the key C7 schools, would never, ever, ever, agree to St Joe's. Never going to happen. Never. Ever.

vcuuuuuuuu baby haha we in it to win it

VCU scares me. They would would be a great addition to the C7 and they are underrated in my mind. They are physical, quick, and just overall ballers. VCU will be around for a long time, and even though they are a public school they should be added.
