Catholic 7 expected to keep Big East name

I think Laranaga should have gotten Coach of The Year, but JT 3 did a great job.

 I really hope they make a deep run.  None of this 1st, 2nd round exit like usual.  The new Big East needs to stick together.

Agree on all points.

It is kind of weird for JT3 to get it.  Honestly some can say Buzz had a better year based on expectations.  And of course the fact that buzz didn't have the POY on his team.  I agree that Laranagga would have been a very good choice too.

I don't see how anybody can take a look at what has been done with the new Big East and see it as anything but a rousing success in just about every way.  Kudos to the league schools and administrations for getting this done.  Keeping MSG is another massive success despite Newsie's Doomsday prophecies.

They broke away and did it with class IMO.  Something most of the others didn't.

Yes, it genuinely seems like they left on good terms and that the holdovers actually had no issue with it (except UCONN of course)

This is how Xavier announced joining the Big East to the students. Is it just me or does his head need to stop moving so much?

He's a living bobble head!

His head moves so much when he talks it's honestly hard just to follow his eyes LOL. Also, this is really interesting I didn't see this until today, but Fox Sports apparently is going to have a sports news network to bust the ESPN monopoly. This is likely the channel our games will be discussed as well as league news. They are really going after ESPN!

Or it could be a physical condition such as Parkinson's (see Michael J. Fox)--beyond that, I appreciated what he said and welcome them into the conference as the academic institution in Cincinnatti.  I don't think Lance would have been accepted at X.  With what we are losing versus what we are gaining, the conference has probably gone up exponentially in academic ratings despite wanting quality sports programs.

You just realized today that Fox is competing with ESPN?

Doesn't look like Parkinsons.

If he fails I heard you would be under consideration

I am more worried about how or what package I need to order from my cable provider to make sure I get the new network.

If you have Speed and Fuel channel now you will be fine.

I have Fios in Queens, Speed or FS1 is part of the regular package. Fuel I can't find.

Sorry don't know why I said Fuel.  Speed will be FS1 and Fox Soccer should turn into FS2

New Big East 2-0, Traitors 0-1 (hopefully soon to be 0-2 when Cuse loses).

No, what I realized was that Fox is having a sportscenter type show which I never knew about. ESPN is an absolute monopoly. This really may be the first time things shift a bit. FS1 will now have all Big East games including baseball, lax, women's basketball, etc. there are tons of talented teams worthy of watching in all those sports. They also have the Big East tourney now, which will be huge. Fox Sports finally gets their first real dent in the CBB market and ESPN loses a substantial amount while putting out a crappier product. Hopefully this means more of a focus on us instead of how it was on ESPN worshipping Duke, UNC, and other ACC schools.

i had a couple of talk shows...my bad not sending an air check.  that's what i get for wasting my time debating you guys.

When we expand in another year lets add FGCU

I'd rather just steal their coach if and when the time came.
