It is not as simple as you indicate, NoDak. Through the Big South we have a compact bus league against schools with whom we know we should have relatively easy access to auto bids regardless of sports outside of mens hoops. And even that looks better these days. The upside to being in the A-Sun is negligable for us.

Now there remains the very real possibility that we'll land there as our fallback should the Big South push us out to make way for more schools. But in the meantime, it serves our purposes just fine.

As for recruiting, we strongly recruit Texas, Georgia & Florida already. Having a game at a school that most recruits really don't follow in their state gives us minimal advantage.
