How about Houses of the Holy for the new conference name?

How can the Big 10 keep that name with 14—and counting—members????

You assume that they can count...

It's all about the brand name. With the network, it wouldn't be practical to change the conference name. Sort of like how the NFC West was still called the NFC West when Carolina and Atlanta were in the division.

Understood. Only pointing out that the Big East has plenty of company when it comes to inappropriate conference names. The Big 10 has 14 teams...the Big XII has 10 teams...the SEC has Missouri...and the AAC has Syracuse, Pitt, ND, and BC.
