This guy has been on the $;
So, looking into the very near future here’s our very best guess of the sequence of events for the Big East.
1. Sign main television deal with NBC, with secondary deals with CBS and perhaps TBS or Fox–and ESPN.
2. Announce that the break up for the Catholic 7, as well as Rutgers, Louisville and Notre Dame will officially begin on July 1, 2014.
4. Announce that the Big East will retain its name, leaving the Catholic 7 group to come up with a new name.
5. Announce that East Carolina will be included as a full member, joining Tulane in 2014 as a full member.
6. Announce that future expansion is on hold (with Tulsa and Massachusetts as logical contenders) until 2015
“@blauds: Defining week for Big East coming; deal with NBC likely, retaining Big East name also likely.
