Message: [QUOTE="ec33, post: 5222148, member: 12850"] I know this is off topic (KO and Kimani), but this is a big hire for Villanova. Getting them back to the upper echelon of the Big East would be a big deal. UConn, Marquette, Creighton, St. John's (if they follow up Pitino correctly), and then Villanova could be a formidable group of Top 25 programs in one league. It also helps with the possibility of a future merger should UConn miss out on the early 2030's conference realignment on their own. If form holds true, UConn will be exiting the Big East right as Villanova is ready to become the class of a UConn-less Big East (which works for me). [/QUOTE]
