Because Creighton has success that significantly adds to our resume (18 > 6), already has fans so there's no waiting period or gamble, its in a city people will go to and not get shot, had an inside man to help get them into the league.  You pick


Exactly.  All reasons besides market size that are important.  Davidson's success outside of the Curry era has been marginal and largely based on their conference affiliation.  They have a small alumni base.  Play in a small gym.  The only think that could possibly help them is their market size, but they are even a bit player in that market.

Everyone realizes the Big East is at most 3 weeks away from starting competitions (soccer, golf, track, etc).  Or maybe you don't because THERE IS NO WEBSITE LET ALONE PUBLISHED SCHEDULES!!!!!  We're the exclamation points too much?  Seriously I'm not looking for some sort of advanced, interactive web platform with tons of flash and huge marketing splash, but a straight forward webpage with links and some basic structure is a must.  Would take 2 UWM marketing majors a week to do something like that.

Devil is in the details, get this crap organized and get moving

Um there are published schedules. I know the soccer schedules are published on all the school's websites. All the fall schedules are already taken care of.

She's doing a bang-up job with the website

Read in another article the website was on hold until a commissioner was hired. Hopefully it'll be online by August 17 when FS1 launches.

And, Davidson is about 25 miles outside of Charlotte.  Not truly "in market" either.

Now that the server issues are solved, I'll post the Nielsen market list when I get to a computer.  Ft. Meyers, FL is a bigger market than Dayton.  Bring on Florida Gulf Coast!

Why do people like Richmond better then VCU,  VCU, Draws more people to games, Is a much bigger school, and Has had success with multiple coachs.  Is a nationally known Team and has had lots of success the last 5-10 years.  If its between Richmond and Dayton I take Dayton.  At least they have been OK and have good support.  Richmond would be worse then Depaul and Seton Hall.

Georgetown reportedly likes Richmond, maybe because they are in the East, are very good academically, and have a FCS football team like Georgetown.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Proximity to the center of the market doesn't have any bearing on their presence in the market. For 99% of schools regarding their nearest TV market, you are either in or out. I would agree that they aren't a heavy player in their market, but they do have at least a minimal presence in 3 of the top-10 college basketball television markets. Not saying I would use that as a reason to take them, though.

I'd say UNC-Charlotte is probably top dog (NCAA men's basketball-wise) in that market anyway.

All true, but it is a small school and is 25 miles from Charlotte.  Beautiful campus, but...............

Was referring to schools actually located in that market, but fair enough, your point is well taken.
