Conference carousel to start spinning again?

But if they could combine a conference game (vs. UC) with a premiere OOC game (vs. X) then I could see it happening. If X would then come back to WSU the next year, of course.

I'm sure Xavier could get WSU to agree to come to Cintas one year with the return game in downtown Wichita. Then Xavier wouldn't even have to play on Wichita State's home court.

I think the challenge would be timing. I suspect X is not as keen on the premier non-conf game during the conference season as they were during the A-10 days. Which would put WSU in a position of final non-conf game and First conference game on a same trip which would be tough.

Yeah thats what I was thinking as well.

I would think it might work well for WSU if they could swing series with XU, Wright State, Dayton, Miami, etc.

The timing would have to work extremely well, like maybe last non-conference game, then first conference match with UC.

I doubt they would always want to do this, but they might at least try. I could see the various leagues being excited about the possibilities.

X could fly out there then WSU could ride back on the charter to play uc. Might save a couple $$

Mississippi Valley St. played IPFW and IU back to back nights.

I noticed Mississippi Valley State barnstorming through Indiana, so I looked them up only to discover they have the coolest mascots going. Not only do they have the Delta Devil who looks like he is going to wipe out the Justice League...





,,,they also have the Delta Devilette!




Not sure this Devilette is officially sanctioned. nuts4xu may be switching affiliations.

Anyone who can legitimately work the "Justice League" into a post deserves reps. Sadly, the man is preventing me from repping you.

The Misery continues today - they lose at home to Eastern Illinois.

Interesting idea here: adding Wichita State, VCU and Dayton to the AAC. I think this would be good for all parties involved (well, other than the Valley and the A-10). Seems to me the biggest concern would be the same football/basketball dynamic that destroyed the old Big East. But as long as all of these programs are stuck in a league they don't really want to be in, it would improve their lots to go it together. That would be a pretty damned fine basketball league for as long as they could keep it together.
