Carlson: Gonzaga Will Leave WCC

Memo to Zagnation and Zagnauts: Your beloved Bulldogs are once again going for the money. Make no mistake, it's just a matter of time before they officially accept an invitation from the "new" Big East to join the Catholic Seven non-football playing members of the "old" Big East conference. Forget about tradition. Forget about rivalries. In the words of motor-mouth basketball commentator Dick Vitale, "It's all about the money, baby, it's all about the money." Don't forget, Zag fans, this is the same guy who guaranteed the nation's basketball watching television audience that Wichita State would defeat Gonzaga in the NCAA round of 32/Chris Carlson, Carlson Chronicles. More here.

Question: Would you like to see Gonzaga leave the West Coast Conference for a more prestigious one?
