Loyola-Chicago to the A10

Holy shit. I get to see a10 games here in Chicago!
A-10 seems to be stable...not in danger of losing anyone at the moment. Big East is happy with their membership unless they can get Gonzaga.
MVC looking to add Murray State, Kansas City, and UT Arlington. Belmont is already coming in next year.

Missouri Valley Conference loses Loyola Chicago but pursuing Murray State, UT Arlington and Kansas City
As Loyola Chicago leaves for the Atlantic 10, the league looks to expand with as many as three more schools

Bob Black said this wouldn't happened when I suggested it on radio a number of months back. Should of added Belmont too but I LOVE this move.

shows you how connected he is, sounds like this has been in the works for a while
Wonder if Belmont can get out of the MVC offer now and come over? Maybe we add Loyola of Maryland now, too.
How does a team compete with Sister Jean?

Or, the more probable scenario is he knew, but could not say anything publicly.
Nice addition.
Temple plays D1 football. They were never returning to the A-10.
Great strategic addition to shore up A10 western wing. Bernadette has good judgment and is savvy.
Just no.
Her handling of covid and the scheduling of the A10 tourney shows she lacks any semblance of good judgment.
? Temple has D1 football. They aren’t coming back to a basketball centric conference.
It’s debatable whether Temple is playing D-I football at the moment.
X isn't letting Dayton into the BE. UR is the only school that would purposly upgrade their cross town rival
Anybody in favor of being a 16 team league, or getting rid of a few schools to have a solid 12-14 team league?
People don't like divisions but they line up at 15 pretty clean save maybe STB. 8 games in your division 10 vs the rest gets you 18.

I see it as:
Catholic Division:
SLU
Dayton
Duquesne
Bonnies
Loyola
Fordham
LaSalle
Joe’s
Secular Division:
UR
Davidson
GW
GMU
URI
UMASS
RichmondProfessionalInstitute
I see it as this:
We play teams in our division and add games from the second group, only if those teams have losing records.
Plus all teams pay UR 10% of all gate proceeds and 20% of NCAA revenues, while allowing the best players to freely transfer to UR at Richmond's demand.
UR Division:
UR
Davidson
GW
GMU
Fordham
LaSalle
Joe's
VCU Division:
SLU
Dayton
Bonnies
Loyola
URI
UMASS
Duquesne
Feces U.

I like this setup. Could see where you play one division all home and the other all away in alternating years to keep it simple, but maybe travel logistics would be a problem. That third "East" group seems pretty weak at the moment, while our "South" group is decent and the "West" group is tough, but fortunes can change.
I will lobby for this structure:
Eastern Division
UR
Fordham
LaSalle
Northern/Western Division
Everyone else
Eastern Division
UR
Fordham
LaSalle
Northern/Western Division
Everyone else
not sure how the old conference rpi works, but somehow the A10 is currently the 27th ranked conference, and somehow we're below the 2-31 SWAC.
