Does this mean RM's demand the SLU join the MVC be honored?

What an excellent conference if the MVC added SLU, but why stop there... add DePaul and Butler. Then 3 schools would have to be dropped. What 3?

Huh? Majerus turns down USC and Iowa, to go to SLU? He rips the mids unmercelously on ESPN, and now he's heading to one? Strange, very strange.

Very good point BB...
It also seems as though there has been quite the discussion regarding SLU to the Valley...as well as 1 other team...not sure whether it will be Butler or SIUE in the next couple years once SIUE goes D-I, BUT according to some, they believe that 12 teams and a bigger draw gives the Valley the opportunity to alter from being the "Missouri Valley Conference" to being just "The Valley Conference" or "The Valley 12" and becoming one step closer to a Major conference...or so I have heard

A fat wallet and free meals at Zia's will make even normal people giddy with excitement..... :wink:
SLU must be ponying up a lot of $$$$$ to get Majerus to commit to coaching again. But, I would be very cautious that he will decide to re-retire when the pressure cooker starts to heat up again.

Now when you say "pressure cooker", do you mean the games or his arteries :lol:
Maybe we could just drop one current team....add SLU, DePaul, and Butler.....then call ourselves the Big Eleven. THEN....we might get 5-6 teams in every year.thefish7 said:georgethedog said:MacabreMob said:

For me it would ISU Blue, ISU Red, and UE. We'd never pry DePaul out of the Big East though.

Majerus coaching again is not good I for one do not want to be a witness to a coach dying of a massive heart attack while arguing with a ref during a game :-o

I'm with you here! Gotta get the word "BIG" in the conference name. I think we should all e-mail Doug Elgin!!!!!

I don't think BIG is enough anymore...lets be the BIGGER VALLEY!
Here is a surprising turn of events :roll: ---
Apparently Rick Majerus is now telling St. Louis U. that he isn't sure he wants to follow through with taking the head coaching job.

I think you both missed the point.....we must have "BIG" and we must misrepresent the actual number of teams in the conference. Then we'll have a chance at getting even MORE bids than even deserve to be there!MacabreMob said:georgethedog said:shaunguth said:Maybe we could just drop one current team....add SLU, DePaul, and Butler.....then call ourselves the Big Eleven.

You really think it would be prudent for the Valley to drop Illinois State? Wow. Is this a rivalry thing or are you really serious? :?
