The xDSU's would do the same in basketball. We would walk in better than 2/3 of their current teams (just like football). With improved recruiting, within 5 years we would both be finishing top 3 consistently (just like football).

Edit: But facilities, attendance, money! BFD, we would be upper half in no time in those metrics as well.
I think this is right. I'm not overly optimistic a move to the MVC will happen, but the XDSUs would be competitive fairly quickly in BB if it did.
