wonder who will replace. It'd be something if they got Tagliabue(sp?) as at least an interim- to be in charge during the TV contract negotiations.

My guess is this is a bad sign. I get this feeling every time Nicolas Cage has a movie coming out.

Rumor has it he's headed to the ACC as an assistant to Swofford to help with TV negotiations, the NCAA FB playoffs, etc.

Makes sense that he'd want to go where most of the old BE went to.

He didn't *resign*. He was kicked out to go to the Big XII to work under Bowlsby. He just couldn't imagine a life without WVU.

RE: Marinatto Resigns as Big East Commissioner
Yeah from the sounds of it he essentially got fired. Very interested to find out why. Obviously to get fired something was going wrong. My guess is it's either related to the BCS playoff meetings or future TV deal. Pure speculation though.
