Bubble Watch

Surprising as hell to me, no football, no juice? Ironic Pitino listed one bid as one of the reasons for leaving Iona only to be part of a classic short change to the BE.

 

[MJDinkins]

I'll likely halfheartedly watch the tournament this year.

 

[ZanMan]

Being in one of the toughest conferences now hurts you!

 

[mkras99]

Not even in first four out. Guess we were all stressed out about nothing.

 

[Demo]

Best conference in the country and only get 3 teams. I hope all three Big East teams make it to the final four!

 

[Larry Wright]

We may not have made it had we upset UConn

 

[kranmars]

Two things for me:

1. The NCAA cannot even begin to deny football conferences/schools get preferential treatment.

2. Val Ackerman should walk away. Her conference was disrespected and by extension, the committee showed what they thought of the BE commissioner.

 

[Jack Williams]

Wow ST John’s needed to beat UConn to have a shot

Imagine we beat uconn and they left us out. I probably woulda had an aneurysm on the spot

 

[JohnnyFan]

I don't want to hear about quad this and quad that next year. Net means nothing.

Actually, I am honestly not sure what the committee values.

 

[L J S A]

Root for every Mountain West team to flame out in first round, so the NCAA love affair ends before it can start to really take root.

 

[sjulaw1]

Key next year is to be ranked. Then we are in with no stress.

 

[Eric]

We needed that 6th seed. Better avenue for more wins. Unfortunately.

 

[classof2010]

We weren’t even considered. Losses to Michigan and BC hurt us. I want ACKERMAN FIRED!

 

[kranmars]

Best conference in the country and only get 3 teams. I hope all three Big East teams make it to the final four!

No. Only two. F*ck UConn.

 

[Money]

I agree Money, I want her gone!! She’s horrible!!

She's been horrible from day one! Obviously not respected by NCAA committee, you could have made an easy case for SH, SJU, Providence... Absolute embarrassment

 

[Larry Wright]

Imagine we beat uconn and they left us out. I probably woulda had an aneurysm on the spot

Based of this that would def has been a possibility

 

[Alumni Hall]

And only having 3 Big East teams will haunt the Conference financially for years

 

[paultzman]

BE not respected is obvious

 

[Marillac2]

We didn’t beat anyone all year except Creighton. I can live with us being out. But the Big East getting 3 teams WITH the defending national champs and #1 overall seed?! They just took a sh*t on our conference because Val and company are complete jokes. That’s why UVA is in.

Seton Hall being left out is criminal.

Virginia? Anyone watch them. They suck. Same with Michigan ST. Colorado. Hahaha.
