That would be a pretty damned fine basketball league for as long as they could keep it together.

I think Wichita St.’s move showed them that you don’t have to have all football teams.

Instead of a conference carousel this year, we have a mascot carousel this season with both Long Beach State and Long Island University announcing that they will be known as the Sharks effective next season. LBSU is changing their mascot because some students felt that it was offensive to indigenous people, and Long Island University is actually going through a campus merger between LIU-Brooklyn and LIU-Post.

LBSU used to be called the 49ers. Their mascot was Prospector Pete. Apparently, anything referencing the 1849 gold rush is now racially insensitive.
