It is the next logical move for a university wants to continue the success Jim Calhoun created, literally, from nothing.
From a football perspective, for the time being, the BE maintains their automatic BCS bid, but it's such a hodgepodge of schools it seems just a matter of time before it implodes. Sadly, the BE screwed itself with leadership that was far too beholden to the hoops only schools. It's been raided 3 times with probably more to come.I wouldn't want to stay in the Big East because it sucks. Do you want to play Houston, SMU, and UCF every year in addition to Depaul, Providence, and Seton Hall?
