Big east has been utter trash in the post season since realignment. Correct me if I am wrong but outside of Nova xavier is the only team to make the sweet sixteen once

Do you have any idea how stupid and out of touch you sound by saying this about ESPN?  It is a comment about what a fossil you are.

Delete your account and start over, you have been permanently damaged.

The point I was making was in regards to the comment of Big East games being televised nationally on FOX.  No matter how many kids are or aren't watching (and I actually agree that fewer and fewer kids are watching TV), more will tune in to an ACC game than a Creighton Xavier.  That was the only point.  But you keep sticking with the personal attacks to prove how "Lit" you are......

The ACC is utter trash since the Big East realigned.  Other than UNC and Duke, who else has made the S16?

The SEC is utter trash since the Big East realigned.  Other than Kentucky, who else has made the S16?

The Pac-12 is utter trash since the Big East realigned, they only sent three teams to the tourney this year a 9, 11 and a first four team.  The A-10 is stronger.

Shall I continue?

Butler made it. Xavier with an Elite 8. Villanova with 2 titles.

Uh Syracuse went final four a few years ago

As an 11 seed (lowest ever) after everyone screamed they should not have been in at all.

Hey, Loyola went last year, the Horizon is a high-major conference!

Horizon and a 10 are.mid major. Big east is low major

[fjm]

A lot of you guys are good with looking up stats. I am wondering- after Villanova won National Championship last year, is the Big East getting the Four and Five Star players in great numbers than the so called Mid-Major conferences?
I mean if someone has the numbers for the last two years and the coming year, is the Big East still contending for these players against the ACC, SEC, Big Ten?

Should we shoot an email to the Horozon conference?
See if there is a spot to join UWM and UWGB?

The U.S. Marine Corps' first sergeant major was Archibald Sommers

That's for pulling a new term out of your a$$

[GrimmReaper33]

Without Nova it is REAL bad.  Nova is no different than Gonzaga carrying their conference.

Without Nova it is REAL bad.  Nova is no different than Gonazaga carrying their conference.

Should've joined the A-10

Big East is worse than the Horizon....it's hard to take you seriously at all with exceptionally stupid things out of your mouth.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Without Nova it is REAL bad.  Nova is no different than Gonzaga carrying their conference.

Or Kansas winning 13 straight  Big 12 titles.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

No. Next question.

Right on.

[vogue65]

That's why we needed to join the A-10

We went for the $$$, good move, I suppose.  For the University, not for winning basketball.

[vogue65]

No Football!!
That is why the 'new' BE was created out of non-football schools.

Great universities don't play big time football.  One exception that will remain nameless and BC, but they stink.  The Ivy league, NYU, George Washington, Johns Hopkins, Case, Washington, Chicago, Georgetown, it is a long list. 

Giving up football was the best thing MU ever did.  It was not even a decision, it was in the numbers.

Also Butler.

Or what Kentucky has meant to the SEC over the years.

Or Duke/UNC to the ACC

Or UCLA in the Pac-12

Nearly conference has a dominant team.

[CTWarrior]

Yes. The conference that got 2 #1 seeds last season and won 2 out of the last 3 national championships is becoming a mid major.

yeah. This was a very down year for the Big East after we were basically a top 3-4 conference since the split.  Hopefully it is the exception rather than the rule.  We still need someone other than Villanova to has some sustained success.
