What's different, Booth said, is "everything. We don't have a lot of veterans, so the drills we used to do that everybody knew, we've got to teach some new things, how we do things, technique, and how we defend."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there a general assessment of Villanova's freshmen on the defensive side?

"Yeah, poor,'' Wright said. "It's poor."

Average poor?

"Yeah, average poor,'' Wright said. "It's like any high school kid coming in as a freshman, but they do pick up the concepts really quickly. That's something I like. And they're very open to learning. They don't look at it like, I'm a high school scorer — I don't have to learn this."

Nova, X, Hall all take steps back this year in my opinion. Hoyas, Johnnies, Marquette take their spots.

Man what a sucker at least as far as Nova is concerned. After listening to Nick Saban interviewed you would probably pick Louisiana-Layfayette to beat Bama outright even as a 49 point underdog. Ever hear of coach speak? Just a coach downplaying expectations and trying to take pressure off his players as a defending champ with still high expectations.

The DePaul assistants were not DePaul assistants when then allegedly paid Bowen Sr. - nor were they paying him on behalf of DePaul nor were they paying him in order for his son to attend DePaul.

No way can they elevate the tournament over the Big East. Each team gets a certain amount of tix and Rutgers fans won't travel when they suck. Nebraska doesn't travel well in spite of its home attendance and Northwestern, Minnesota, and Penn State won't come close to using their share of tix.

If it is make or break let's add Dayton (#33 in attendance and top 20 traveling fan bases) and Gonzaga or Wichita St. and keep it in NY.

Some iconic venues possible, great news for the conference. You would hope that Cragg has some influence in scheduling a marquee Big12 opponent at the Garden and taking the brand on the road throughout this contract:

Steele's 2019 class is off the charts for someone with zero head coaching experience. Dominating his backyard with this Northern Kentucky commit-

https://www.bigeastcoastbias.com/big-east-recruiting/2018/10/23/18014752/xavier-musketeers-2019-recruiting-kyky-tandy-commits

"As it was mentioned before, Xavier’s class is now up to five players in 2019. Tandy joins the aforementioned Dieonte Miles as well as three other four-star players. Those players include Dahmir Bishop, Daniel Ramsey and Zach Freemantle. Once the score goes through, Xavier will jump from 15th to 10th in the nation in the 2019 recruiting rankings. They will remain second in the Big East behind the vaunted Villanova Wildcats."
