Big East 2024 -25 Results

ESPN front page cover story Today is Rick Pitino could give the Big East its 5th Title this Century. If I am not mistaken it would be the 8th Title this Century correct.

UCONN 1999 close but does not count but 2004, 2011,
2014 does not count but 2023 And 2024 do count.
Villanova 2016 And 2018 count correct
Syracuse 2003

That is 9 Total but 2 that are close but do not count for a total of 7 Titles. And if Pitino wins that would be 8 correct

[brewcity77]

If we're talking about the league, Syracuse in 2003 should count.

ESPN is not an honest broker in Big East discussions,

Wouldn't it be fun if, some year in the future, there was a production titled "Requiem for ESPN"?

[wisblue]

Maybe they're just referring to the reconstructed Big East.

In which case the proper presentation would be "its fifth championship in the 12th season since its reconstruction".

Thank You Correct

So the same St. John's team that Scooprognosticators say will crush Marquette at Fiserv on the last day of the season barely beat the juggernaut that is Butler. We have no chance to win. Zero.

Will the juggernaut St John's be held off by the Senior Day corsages?

Ok - so rooting order today is Prov, Butler, SH & X (or Creighton if you're COLE)?

For me, the main reason to root for X is that they still have an outside shot at an NCAA at large bid. A win over Creighton is necessary to keep that alive.

Seton Hall's Isaiah Coleman just took (and missed) one of those tough, hand-in-face, mid-range jumpers that some Scoopers want us to take.

[MU82]

The Seton Hall team that Marquette just unimpressively beat by 1,000 points gave St. Juggernaut fits in the first half.

The beyond idiotic foul by Richmond to give 3 FTs to Addae-Wusu with 0.1 left on the first-half clock shows why Marquette wasn't negligent in refusing to challenge NC State's 75-foot shot. That shot going in was bad luck for MU; a foul would have been beyond idiotic.

Hope Shaka is portalling him

Screw Pitino, tired of the worship out east for this moral degenerate. And that is exactly what he is. Any defense for this crud is reprehensible.

Did anyone think that maybe Lou Carnesecca was cursed and had to die before St. John's could win the Big East again?

Premature ejaculation happens to a lot of people Willie. Not just you and Rick.

This Marquette team does not have players who have the kind of shot that can be effective in the midrange.

But, even though they don't have to be the focus of the offense, it sure wouldn't hurt to have a couple of players who are capable of getting into the lane and popping up with a 12 foot jumper.

[wisblue]

It would also help to have a couple of players who could come around a screen and drop in a 3 point shot off the dribble like a couple of the ones Xavier just had.

Having almost nothing but set shooters does make it easier for the defense.

X is a bubble team.  They're wildly inconsistent.

It's really unfortunate that the Big East did poorly in key games out of conference. Nova and Xavier are better teams than some of the Big10 and SEC teams that are currently "in" the tournament.

Indiana, Nebraska, Ohio State, Arkansas, Texas

All have no business being in the NCAA tournament. They are being lifted up by the the SEC, in particular, having a good out of conference season which allowed teams to rack up "quality" wins against teams that were really over-rated.

Meanwhile, because of some injuries, and a slow start to the season, I think the Big East is under-rated. Remember Marquette who destroyed the 3 best teams in the Big10 is only the 3rd best team in the Big East.

Agreed forgetful.

X might be the hottest team in the beast right now.

Not sure what that has to do with my comment about jump shooters.

I used those shots by Xavier as examples, but if you look around there are a lot of guys on the top teams in the country that can make 3 point jump shots off the dribble.

About Xavier being inconsistent, I made the point a couple of weeks ago that if you look just at the conference games since Fremantle returned, Xavier has been as good as Marquette. Throw in the games since then and they have been better, and T-Rank would back that up.

When the dust settles it looks like the teams might be within a game of each other in the conference standings and facing off in the 4-5 game in the BET.

Again, XU is a bubble team.  Marquette is not.  Everything else is meaningless including you sucking up to them and Freemantle.

Hey, watch the hard talk.  He is simply being objective and calling as he sees it.  Which is his right.  Bully.

He constantly disparages MU.  Both directly and indirectly.  And he's done this for the last several years.  Then he jumps on the
 bandwagon when we do well.
