http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bas...s-realignment-big-east-count-major-conference
We've discussed this ad nauseum (sp), but I figured I'd share this as UConn is featured prominently in the article. Essentially, ESPN is trying to sell the Big East as a major basketball conference and the American as a "high mid-major" akin to the A-10.
I'm not trying to reignite our back and forth conference realignment/Big East v. AAC conversations, but suffice it to say, I disagree with the premise of the article, as the "New Big East" may have a decent regular season record these past two years, but has been exposed pretty badly in the tournament thus far. Anyways, until that B1G invite comes, let's just dominate the American like we are supposed to.
