ACC is learning in Brooklyn (as is Big 10 in Washington) that very few people care about Midwestern and Southern teams playing in their backyard. Stupid moves on those conference's parts to move tourneys to where many of their fans can't see them.

Which is why it makes no sense that the B1G is moving their tournament a week earlier just to be at MSG.

Just use Chicago or Indy, both perfectly fine venues.

How was attendance otherwise at MSG and Brooklyn this week? I know last night sellout at MSG but hadn't heard anything else.

Someone should ask Jim Boeheim what the prices would be in Greensboro.

Big East
First round at MSG 15,000
Second round at MSG 18,500-plus
Third round at MSG - 20,000-plus
Fourth round at MSG - 20,000-plus expected

The first and second rounds at the Barclays Center for the ACC were right around 9,000 to 10,000. I don't have figures for the third and forth rounds. But last night like a decent crowd. I'll see if I can get figures.

The Garden sells itself. When the B1G is rightfully playing alongside the low major conference tournaments next year at MSG tickets will sell.

At least ACC has Syracuse, ND and Pitt to attract NYC fans. There is zero reason anybody in NYC gives a crap about the Big 10. Rutgers?  no one cares.

Not true. Huge alumni base of B1G fans in NYC. Had to be 3,000 Badgers fans when they played Rutgers at MSG in January. Michigan, Ohio State has tons of alumni in NYC.

The good news really is that the BET is still a thing at MSG.  That is what everyone was worried about, and those worries have been put to rest.

All and all, the Big East has been a tremendous success.  Better than I had even hoped.  If they get 70% of their membership in the tournament tomorrow, that is another feather in the cap.

This.

I need to get to a BET at MSG some year (bucket list). Hopefully to coincide with when Marquette finally makes a deep run.

Yup. This league is one of the three best in the country and on par with any league out there.

I wouldn't say the worries have been put to rest permanently. But Nova's win last year, the overall success of the league this year, the strong ticket sales this year, and the weaker sales of the B10 and ACC are all good omens. Let's hope it continues. And how the hell do we give up Raftery for the weekend? That was disappointing.

Mr. Nielsen

This is the 3rd stright year Raftery has been on the #1 team for CBS. It's in his contact. FS1 is not going to stand in his way. Nor, should they.

The Big East and ACC will bury them in attendance for the games in NYC. There is nothing attractive about at least nine Big 10 basketball teams in a city that only cares about college ball one week a season (until March Madness). Today's UW-Michigan final in NYC would draw 12,000 tops.

Nance alluded to this being the case early in the broadcast.

I have loved this configuration of The Big East since day one. My position is the double round robin breeds rivalries and gives identity to players  and coaches . The basketball quality is high and people enjoy going to The BET as part of a tradition.  The tournament  will keep getting better. When The Johnnies complete their rebuild and Georgetown recovers things will be red hot in the Garden.  The allure of athe BET was that anyone could win it. So the environment was always intense with real fans not corporate stuffed shirts
