"It almost seems fitting that they should have the name,” Brey said. “I only say that just from the impression and who they’ve been in the league and how they’ve carried the flag for the Big East, those Catholic schools."
No, he was misquoted, what the really said was "carry the bag" and he was referring to the bags of money they earned while living off the efforts of UConn, Louisville et al.Did you see Mike Brey's comments about the C7 taking the Big East name?
Really Mike? How do you define "carrying the flag"?
Looks like of the $60 million to get split, the football schools will get $40 million an the C7 $20 million, the name and the ok to leave in July. League presidents to make official in the next few days. Man, it was a great league while it lasted
The name should be the Big Disaster.....what a pile of next year will be if Lvlle, ND, RU bail early as well. I thought we would have 1 more year to "survey the landscape" but C7 said i don't think so.
UConn aligning itself with this mess of a conference is a mistake....beg the C7 for an invite if ACC/BG1 don't put us out of our misery, go Ind in football until next CR, whatever. I would rather play BB in the A10 than this mess.
Just say no mas to the Big Disaster.
Once more at leastHow many times do we have to go over this?
