The intuitive minds that plot the course need a cartography lesson.

@freezyfriars @chiradiowires @PaintTouches Against one of those shitty MWC teams who then got rocked in the next round! It was an abomination that doesn’t happen if Creighton doesn’t get waxed 2x in non-con by MWC teams. But that’s what happened.

@123Fireballs @chiradiowires @PaintTouches Not for nothing, I was clearing the record that it wasn’t just PC in 2024. That’s the point. The worst Virginia team ever got in and scored 30 points in the first round instead of a big east school.

Despite what a lot of peeps on here will tell you, those inside have nothing but great things to say about Val. She helped transition the Big East post-reformation and got the 2nd contract done. Good timing now for new, more innovative leadership.

@freezyfriars @chiradiowires @PaintTouches The culprits for that are 1) Creighton getting obliterated in both of its OOC games to MWC opponents, which allowed them to game the NET. 2) Butler’s AD doing a bad job in the selection committee room. How is that Val’s fault? x.com/123fireballs/s…

@1999Huskies Like what? Providence got screwed last year because Creighton got blown out against two MWC teams and because Butler’s AD was incompetent.

@MDtheDream People willfully ignore the power conferences trying to scheme their way to MSG and Val blocking that. Would have been a disaster for the league. PC got snubbed in 2024 because Creighton lost to 2 MWC teams and Butler’s AD was incompetent in the room. That’s somehow Val’s fault?

There is no set of magic words that will change the balance of power in college sports. But what you can do is preserve what makes you unique. UConn has played 2 classic multi-OT games. One was at MSG. The other was in an empty Orlando arena. That’s Val. youtube.com/watch?v=yZNkrB…

The Big East has come a long way from this being a serious solution to its woes. People ought to remember that and look where it is now.

The Big East faces an uncertain landscape. Many want to see it fail. Lots of people on here should be careful what they wish for: they might not like it when they get it.

The B1G and the ACC tried very hard to get that venue and Val, to her credit, never gave an inch. If the Big East ever left, even just for one year, they were never going to get it back. sportico.com/leagues/colleg…

Johnny-Come-Latelies to Big East prefer to ignore the fact that the power conferences were smelling blood in the water and Val’s leadership locked them out of the premier venue for college hoops. We had something they wanted desperately and we kept it. espn.com/mens-college-b…

UConn doesn’t win that if they didn’t have the experience winning by one at Capital One Arena earlier in the season. Shoutout Ed Cooley for making sure the Big East gets more tournament units!

Georgetown has not landed a Top 10 recruit since Greg Monroe or a Top 25 since Aminu Mohammed.

Which team cutting down the East Regional nets on Georgetown’s home floor would cause the most pain for Hoyas fans? St. John’s (Hired Cooley over Pitino) or UConn (Hired Ewing over Hurley)? Either outcome worse than Syracuse in 2013 (the FGCU year)?
