Few hints at conference move

Butler and Creighton each comfortably made the NCAA Tournament field this year, although neither school won their conference tournament.

That’s because the former mid-major powers upgraded to the Big East, establishing themselves as haves rather than have-nots in the world of college athletics.

Gonzaga has not made a jump to a Power Conference and seems content to simply dominate the West Coast Conference in men’s basketball every year. But on Friday coach Mark Few hinted that may not always be the case.

Although conference-realignment has cooled from the fever pitch it reached a few years ago, when even Power Conference schools like Missouri, Nebraska and Texas A&M were switching allegiances, it is likely schools will continue to seek better situations and occasionally jump to new conferences.
