I don't see using East in the conference name at all. We only have 3 teams from the East: UConn, Temple and Navy. 5 in the South. 1 in the Midwest and 2 from the Southwest. Plus maybe Tulsa additionally from the Southwest.

So what you are saying is, it should be the Great Eastern Time Zone Conference.Water Pony wrote:The new Great East has seven Eastern Time (ET) Zone teams, along with the four CT universities, which is 2/3 of the country and the media center:AusTxPony wrote:I don't see using East in the conference name at all.

SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

My point is the eastern orientation of the new League. We need to place our bet that our TBD conference is East Oriented by design. It gives us a bit of the legacy that was the past BE with growth in mid-America and SW. It is fine to Intentionally give recognition to the East, while establishing that the MWC and Great East have divided the aspiring teams, which are not in a power conferences at the moment.

We could always call the conference A-SUC (cusa backwards).
