Article written By the NY Post's Lenn Robbins.It mostly describes the amount of effort & passion the commish has committed on behalf of the league...no one else out there could have given the BE a chance given the state of things when he took over...thanks commish.04-cheers

"Mike Aresco was on the phone with his wife, Sharon, recently when she asked if her husband had been getting any sleep. She was not pleased with the answer."

"He has been working the phone lines with media, explaining in his clear, authoritative and at times passionate voice that his conference is not the “sixth conference,” as it has been dubbed by others."

"He has been to Idaho (Boise State), Texas (SMU and Houston) and Philadelphia (Temple and Villanova). He will be at Cincinnati this weekend."

"No. 9 Louisville plays at Syracuse and the Cardinals must win. Not only are the Orange leaving the Big East, but Louisville is the only league team in the Top 10. Rutgers needs to beat Army and keep alive that nationally televised showdown Nov. 29 with Louisville."

It seems his effort to battle the 6 Bowl access mdel will go all the way to Monday:

"In reality it’s dead,” a source told ESPN.com. “(Big East commissioner) Mike Aresco and (Pac-12 commissioner) Larry Scott will press it all the way to get an audience with presidents, but I don’t think it will change the outcome."

Battle on Mike!! :noisycricket:
Nice article find, thanks.

Aresco was suppose to attend the SMU at UCF game last week...but Hurricane Sandy and the delayed ESPN talks were obviously centered-stage so he couldn't make the trip.
ARESCO IN BEAST MODE

:noisycricket:
The lament over Boise State's home loss failed to mention that it was to SDSU, an incoming member of the new Big East.
