For first year it was fine. Remember nobody had any BE teams pre-season top 10 including the two consensus pre-season favorites, Marquette and Georgetown. So yeah it would have been nice to have some teams get past the 2nd round but the conference is not at that level yet.
Need Marquette and Georgetown to bounce back and need SJU, not just for us as fans but the conference as a whole, to make a big leap next year. Not just be an NCAA team (that is a minimum) but be a top BE team and win 25 games plus.
