RE: 2003: A10 discusses Booting the Bonnies
Yeah, the A10 was a haphazard mess that, honestly, benefited from the football landscape at that time, and then the Big East's football/full-membership growth. Sure, I remember when WVU, Rutgers, Penn State, and VT were a part of it. They were virtual non-contributors or NIT-fare. It definitely was a place to be for some...others were lucky to be there. But still a stepping stone, or place-holder, and far more then than now.
Original CUSA was legit. You had the Metro and Great Midwest interwoven, and it took two good basketball conferences and made it into a super one. A lot different than the A10 and its motley crew of football independents or BEF-only members.
