Uh...so what the hell do we do now?

And what pray tell has any big East catholic besides Georgetown done of late? For that matter, with the exception of their 2007 run what the heck has Georgetown done? Marquette's best teams came before they joined the Big East. Temple has won the 3 of the last 5 A-10 championships, and 2 of the last 3 A-10 regular seasons so they are AT LEAST comparable to Xavier. 5 straight NCAA bids under Dunphy, too. So basically they are better than Creighton, Xavier and SLU, the teams the CYO league is going to poach. Memphis has won the last 3 of the last 4 CUSA tournies and has been to the NCAAs in 2009, 2011 and 2012. How is that "its best days are behind it?"If anyone's best days are behind them it could well be Villanova. Clearly St Johns are too. PC, Seton Hall and Depaul's best days are so far behind you need an archiologist to find them.

#UConn source on aligning with 7 Catholic schools if there is a split: "What choice do we have?" Indeed.

If that is a legit quote, UConn is effed in many more ways than you can imagine. If that is a legit quote, throw in the towel now. ACC is never ever ever going to happen. It's believable that someone who works on shellacking the bball court would think that, but if that's a quote from an insider, it speaks to a very limited mentality.

We reek of confidence. Somebody at UConn should at least act like we are a valuable commodity for the aftermath.
