Report- Creighton will join the Big East, but not until 2014-2015

[Da Coach]

The New York post is reporting that the Catholic 7 schools will add Butler, Dayton, and Xavier to form a 10 team league for 2013-2014. Further changes will come, including the addition of Creighton and St. Louis in 2014-2015.

So that seems to suggest that Creighton will likely remain in the MVC for 1 more year.

Interesting, do you think Doug McDermott will stay for his Senior year if they are playing in a conference that has a small media presence, but knows he could very well win a 3rd conference player of the year and try to put up another fight for national player of the year?

 

[Da Coach]

IMO he will not be drafted until the end of the first round, or more likely the 2nd round. After he tests the waters, I think he'll return for his senior year.

 

[Old Coach]

Since it's all just opinion, I think he goes pro and gets drafted between 15-20.

stuff being said now claims no such decisions have yet been made - and even that behind the scenes - there's a bidding war so that who ever pays the most can get in (Richmond vs. Dayton..)
