In hindsight, that seems like it would have been the obvious move for the Big East if Syracuse, BC and Pitt had left, either in 1990, in 1980 when Penn State was trying to form an all sports conference, or again in 1995 when CBS offered the Big East Football Conference a major television deal. However, I don't recall that move ever being suggested.
