The question is how long can the Big East go before feeling pressure to go out and expand with St. Louis and VCU if the A10 continues to out perform.

This is not the same situation as a P5 conference where an addition has to pull its weight in TV money. Basketball tournament credits are worth close to 1.75 million over 6 years.

The problem is the idiots running the conference believe there should be a litmus test and VCU thus will never get in. And there are some idiots as well that believe that the new round robin is sacred. Probably from the schools like PC, Seton Hall- that like getting Georgetown, Villanova, and St John's home each year finally again.

Here's what I can't understand...
You aren't a fan of the Big East.
You aren't a fan of any school in the Big East.
You dislike an disrespect each school in the Big East.

But...
You f*cking tell us what to do.
You f*cking insult us daily.
You act like a ******* on our other site, yet we haven't banned you.

How do you, stever, even give a **** whether or not VCU or Dayton ever gets invited to the Big East...?
Why do you give a f*ck about our sucky, useless conference, which is run by "idiots"...?

I mean, your obsession with the Big East, which you have no connection to in any way, and which you f*cking hate... your obsession in really insane... like, Glenn Close meets Anthony Perkins meets f*cking Carrie's mother... like your the human equivalent of those three conducting a menage-a-trois...

The only explanation for your behavior I can think of is that you have imaginary Martian friends living inside your brain, visible to only you, who command you to write **** about us constantly.

Yeah the other site where you and your ******* cronies like Redman who got un-modded here took anyone from the Big East Board and told them to go over there... Most everyone over there used to be here. Gee I wonder why. Anyone asked about why the BE board was dead and all of you came over and told folks to come over to that board.

The problem is I see the Big East right now for what it is- not great and controlled by cronies at PC. I'm not a blind fanboy like you and others over there are. Butler does have major concerns. Xavier was not in the PIG just because of the Stainback injury. If PC didn't win the BET they were out of the NCAA tourney. Georgetown was NOT announced as the last team left out last year(nor should we at 17-13). You take any small good thing and want to make it seem like it's a referendum on the entire conference. There's a problem with that. You brought up comparing FS1 to a food place discarding food and a bunch of pigeons converging to get fed- thinking that FS1 having MLB will automatically equal to Big east getting good ratings. That's idiotic.

I miss NJ Redman. He was witty and fun to have around.

I think the Big East will be fine. I'm almost getting tired of the AAC vs. Big East rhetoric. They serve different interests, and they really don't get in each other's way.

Marquette, Villanova, and Georgetown can hold the public eye in terms of viewership. It's time to call off the apocalypse.

I agree with you on the AAC/Big East rhetoric. It's absolutely stupid. On the other board- pretty much every thread somehow evolves into the AAC is pathetic- or why would a recruit want to go to UConn where they have to play ECU, UCF, USF, etc. And heaven help you if you say anything about that or try to bring up the AAC had a better year than the Big East last year. Now it's the same on the AAC side as well.

That argument never really made sense to me. Every conference has a bottom...in every sport. In college basketball, recruits place way more importance on the individual program than its conference affiliation.

Yep- and TV exposure. Which the AAC gets better than the Big East had been getting recently before the split.

I will make a deal with Stever...
I will never post on this site ever again, if you never post over at the HLOH site.
Let me know.

RE: ESPN: Big East at a crossroads in Year 2
why shouldn't I post there for my conference. Why do you have to be a fan boy to get to post on that site? I'm sorry but that's just a load of crap. Meanwhile I could post only on this site which you and others raped of all the posters- which was total crap and you know it.....
