Ok what would you do?

Since ACC is wanting to expand........

Who would be the 12th team in the Big Ten?

Who should join the Big East?

If you had to reorganize say the ACC, Big Ten, SEC, and the Big 12 who goes where and why?

I would definitely put Notre Dame in the Big Ten (if they would accept the move). They already have some good rivalries with the teams in that conference.

I'd have to go with Notre Dame, too.

Ok. For the Big Ten...Notre Dame already has said no. That leaves a big hole to fill. Me? I boot Northwestern and then add two teams.

Now remember, I am thinking of broad appeal. Most of the teams are in the Great Lakes area. So I would say let's do this. Offer Kentucky and Nebraska the positions. That would make the Big Ten a power again, and I know it would rearrange the Big 12, but they are not going anywhere and I like the idea of moving two powerhouses in.

I am still thinking about the Big East.

I too would go with Notre Dame, but since they are never going to want to share that big tv contract they have I'll pick PITT as a good alternate.

Decent history, improving program, can't really think of a better school to put in the big 10 + 2.

Now is the committee forced to bring 8 teams from one conference to the tournament?
