Lol. Some likely unaware Tulane was already here.

LOL - no I don't want that; that's what we have been (I realize it is a typo).
Actions speak for themselves. Let's win a bunch more games. Don't need any back-pats; just wins.

Parity? . . . And you’re right on the other points as well. It was a very entertaining game, I rewatched the second half and both teams were trading baskets, playing hard and hitting free throws. I think both teams were perfect from the stripe for the first 31 (!) FTs. Which is crazy.

Who the hell do you think y'all are? You think you're more deserving than a Memphis? Who is your mirror athletic peer in this league. I mean, you go a taste of the big time I guess, in what was the most messed up league in major college sports history, the BigLeast, from 05-12. But seriously, your history in the only sport that matters, is mediocre, at best. A historic stadium no doubt, but that doesn't mean ****. I'm so sick of Cincy fans acting like they should be big time, and that everybody else is lucky to have them. That's about the furthest thing from the truth there is. How about SMU, who was in a major conference for 8 decades, or Houston, who was in one for 20 years? I mean all these programs are as equally or more deserving than the so called anchor program that is Team Chick-Fil-A.

So salty, Memphis would have killed to be in the "BigLeast", rather than what was left of CUSA.

No dumba$$, Cincy fans are the ones whining up and down the boards, as if there is something special about them, no one else can offer. When they're just one of many in this conference who are deserving. I'm just sick of this holier than thou speak spewing out of your fanbase. So who is really salty about being left out of an invite that was never coming anyways? hmmm?

Side note, of course the Tigers would have loved to have gone to the Big East, it would have kick started the football revival many years prior. Not only that, the rivalry with Louisville, and to a lesser extent Cicny, was hard to replace in CUSA2.0
