Decent read.   

Why only "decent?"  He did a phenomenal job at capturing the history of the Big East, juxtaposing it against the status quo, and framing the unknown abyss the league is currently floating in.  Besides, as a Marquette fan, you have to be pretty pleased with the inference that Marquette-Georgetown somehow embodies the Big East spirit, especially considering we'll spend little more than a decade in the conference when all is said and done.

Helps that he is a Marquette alum.  But, I liked the fact that he didn't actually reference that in this story.
