Big East 2024 Offseason

Creighton excellent win over Iowa

There was not an ounce of defense in this game. Aggressive over...and still hit it

[Herman Cain]

Pretty good night for the BEast.

Don't know what to make of the Gavitt Game pasting that Providence layed on a lesser opponent.

Outside of Kalkbrenner, defense appears to be optional for Creighton this year.

Nice comments by Pitino.
He’s obviously a brilliant basketball mind. Gives credit where it’s due and puts his guys to task, doesn’t dodge the issues he saw or make excuses.

If he doesn’t lose the locker room and his guys buy in, he should be able to right the ship enough to battle for a tourney bid.
All starts with Sorianos effort and leadership for them this season.

Butler AD Collier retiring. I wonder if Butler will bump up Matta , if he has a decent season, under the theory of keeping with The Butler Way.

They'll keep it in the family by hiring this former Marquette staffer.

Would be a great move .

Absolutely. It would be great if they spelled his name correctly, though.

I wish there was a button one could push to skip commercials for stuff that one already has.

I have had USAA insurance for 40 years.  I don't need Gronk trying to talk me into buying it 30 times per game.

I've also had USAA for nearly 30 years. What most bugs me about Gronk's appearances in the commercials is that he is trying to get himself something that he doesn't qualify for. Maybe get The Admiral to go the commercials.

I am not even sure why they are wasting money on advertising.  I am pretty sure that everyone who is eligible for USAA knows about USAA.

I mean, if they're trying to find a new audience, I don't think going with an NBA player who was never a spotlight chaser and retired 20 years ago won't really bring that in.

Looks like the Georgetown rebuild is off to kind of a slow start.

[Johnny B]

Suck town sucking. Member when they were good?

[PGsHeroes32]

19 TOs with over 7 minutes still left in the game. Not gonna win many doing that.

[MuggsyB]

Would anyone object to DePaul and Gtown being dismissed from the BEast? 

[Herman Cain]

The Hall slaughters Dwyane Killings Albany Great Danes

Cooley screwed The Big East with his loss tonight

I rather like auto punching 4 league wins per year.

Okay.....but should we have concerns about our NET?

It's just inexperience: eight available scholarship players, five walk-ons, and three players with any significant college play under their collective belts. Mr. Ewing left an empty cupboard.

Beat them by the amount we are supposed to and no, not at all.

Fair enough.  I sometimes worry about losing to crap teams but I suppose that's just lingering Wojo PTSD.
