I know since this was leaked yesterday, it's been confirmed that these conversations were more exploratory than anything. But it brought up a couple thoughts for me.

1) Being the only non-football school in a football-driven conference seems folly. Talk about being at the kiddy table when it comes to the AD meetings.
2) Does this make the Big East counter with some more serious conversations with Gonzaga after this leak? I would hope so. The league will need to get creative to keep up with the inevitable 2 or 3 super conferences at some point.
3) If Gonzaga did join the Big 12, does that maybe open a door for Creighton to go to the Big 12 in the future if we continue on a positive trajectory? I love the Big East, but if the Big 12 were to try and become the SEC of college basketball in the future and came knocking, you'd have to take it IMO.

Happy Thursday All
