I can remember when Louisiana Tech played a 3-game series exhibitions (since they're not in our media guides) in Mexico City in early December, 1973.
We played an AAU type team, Mexico Tech and a university from San Luis Potosi. Team stayed 1 day at the Mexico City Olympic Village before Scotty moved us to a downtown Mexico City hotel the other 2 days. Interesting to say the least, expecially the locals encouraging ballplayers to drink tequila shots. . . . ;-)
Re: Comprehensive Conference Realignment Thread
According to Mark Adams, it appears Valparaiso, Murray State, Nebraska-Omaha, and Wisconsin-Milwaukee are the four schools in the running for the Missouri Valley. Decision could come on Monday.

When I read "comprehensive" I really didn't think of Missouri Valley, Big Sky (or whatever). If it's really going to be "comprehensive" what about the Div III conferences?

Again? They dropped football in the 70s and only started again in about 2000, I believe - it might have been earlier. I only know anything about this because my brother went there.
