I like Luke Winn and think he is pretty unbiased, but this article is really depressing.

The article looks backwards, not forward.

I wonder what a "basketball-only" conference like this would rank in his conference power rankings: Georgetown, Villanova, St. John's, Providence, Seton Hall, Marquette, DePaul, Xavier, Dayton, Butler, St. Louis and Creighton?

And, since this is hypothetical, I wonder what a Jesuit conference with Marquette, Georgetown, St. Joseph's, Fordham, Xavier, Detroit Mercy, St. Louis, Creighton, Gonzaga, Santa Clara, Loyola Marymount, and San Francisco
would have ranked?
