Most people knew this was going to happen. I hate for that conference to disappear like that but once the ACC kept poaching teams from there and other factors, it would lead to something like this.

That is the reason why I would love the ACC to get hit like that, because they are the one of the biggest reason why Big East is on Life Support right now.

It looks like Tulane had a big part in killing the Big East

Hopefully UAB,Memphis,Cinci,and Uconn get back together for a solid basketball conference.

It's funny how the Big East was the first "made for TV conference," delivering big East Coast TV markets to ESPN.

And then ESPN killed it and poached its best teams on behalf of other conferences, because they refused to sign a big $ deal with them.

And it's not a conspiracy. It's been documented.
