It started with the Big East and would be great if they made it must-watch tv again

Thing is they can’t call it big monday. ESPN owns the name.

It will be the Big 12's "Big Monday"

The only thing missing is the Big West and those great UNLV teams.

This thread got me thinking about the early broadcasts of the Big East conference. There was an announcer, I’m going to say his name might’ve been Dave Gorham and he would come on and say something like “You’re watching Big East basketball on the Big East Television network.“

Does that ring a bell for anyone else? We’re talking right at the very beginning maybe 1979.

I know that Mike Gorman has worked for the Celtics now for years was doing Big East games when I was a youngster in the late 80s early 90s, perhaps that's who you are thinking of?

Yep, that’s it. Thanks, that was bugging me.
