NEW YORK-The Big East tournament loves New York. It will be back next season, with a smaller group of old and new members.
And according to sources, it very well could be in New York City permanently as the site of the new conference offices.
After a minor turf war involving Providence in the North and Washington D.C. in the South, New York City was the midway compromise. Perhaps very close to the Fox television headquarters–which will be the new Big East’s new television big daddy, starting next season.
Don’t be stunned if the next commissioner has either New York and/or television ties. A name that might find its way to the search committee was Major League baseball Executive VP Tim Brosnan. Brosnan played a key role in baseball’s lucrative television deal with Fox and could be regarded as the man to guide the new Big East through the early stages of its relationship with the new Fox Sports Cable outlet.
