Message: [QUOTE="FfldCntyFan, post: 4669076, member: 71"] Take the nine other members of the Big East and the twelve schools that will be in the B-12 after Texas and Oklahoma leave, use any time frame you believe is most appropriate for the sample length and go into whatever depths you prefer to measure overall quality. There is no way you can maintain any intellectual honesty and say that the Big East is the better conference. If your stance is that you prefer playing dregs who hope to improve like Georgetown and Depaul, a one time flash in the pan that has yet to find an adequate replacement for a once in a lifetime coach (Butler), a program that never was what it tried to claim it was but is trying to get better by hiring a septuagenarian with a quality history but also of character where in the not too distant past was exiled to coach in Greece, a pair of local, run of the mill programs who, one this past year and the other one year prior lost their coaches who had taken them to their best performances in decades and a few good programs who are as geographically removed as as B-12 programs that are allegedly too far from us to be in the same conference, well, you have that right. Just call it what it is. [/QUOTE]
