East Carolina of Conference USA announced on Wednesday it has applied for membership to the Big East Conference.

"While we have formalized our interest in Big East Conference membership as a viable option, ECU will remain focused on competing at the highest level through the efforts of Conference USA," chancellor Steve Ballard and athletic director Terry Holland said in a statement.

ECU has contacted the Big East so many times that they recycle a form letter and just change the date. Nothing really new here.

Haha that's true. But it usually doesn't make ESPN. I heard they were rejected again.

If it's Thursday, ECU has applied to the Big East.

No, that is every day of the week that ends with "day".

ECU is to the Big East as the WAC is to North Texas.
