How The New Big East Coaches Stack Up


we inch closer and closer to the commencement of the revamped Big East, now is a good time to take a look at the names and stats of those who will coach the ten teams of this “new” conference.

Keep in perspective that from the 2012-13 to 2013-14 school years, the Big East will lose basketball coaches that accounted for well over 2,600 career wins including a Hall of Famer (Jim Boeheim) and a Hall of Famer-to-be (Rick Pitino).

Losing those two coaches alone tremendously impacts the credibility of the conference in the short term, but do not be fooled; there is PLENTY of coaching talent that have proved to make deep runs in the NCAAs. There is, however, a name or two with a seat too warm for comfort. Take a look at the table below (all info provided by sports-reference.com) and the observations that follow it.
