If TCU and UCF are added all-sports (and VU could be there as well), then there are ways to make travel for bb and non revenue sports not so bad for all. Creating divisions with crossover games would be a good way to go---something like:

WESTERN--------EASTERN
TCU-------------UConn
Depaul----------SU
Marquette------Georgetown
ND--------------Rutgers
Louisville-------Seton Hall
Cincinnati------Providence
WVU------------St. Johns
Pitt--------------Villanova
USF-------------UCF

reduces travel costs-could then have crossover games. In bb they play 18 league games now and that might not need to change-but schools would only play one rival twice.

If existing schools didn't like the alignment then perhaps each season a certain number of schools could switch out with others so it just becomes an every other year situation.
