This John guy seems to know his shit.
I follow Pitt. Go to any Big east blog, including ESPN.coms Big East blog. All of the fans of all programs are sick of the 3-4 scheduling. They need 1 more team to be able to schedule 4 home and 4 away. If UCONN can move up to div 1 so quickly, so can U of D. Uof cinn seats 35,000. If you added 8000 bleachers in your stadium the Big east would invite you in 2 seconds.
But could Delaware put 8,000 asses in those 8,000 seats? Who cares.
The Big East does not need a small school like Villanova in football . We already had Temples 8000 per game attendance. Read Rutgers websites, they would much rather be playing a division 1 Delaware than the pansys they were able to schedule. If you look at the Big East’s schools future schedules they could start your transition very quickly. you could join the Big East and still play Navy if you wish,
