As to complaints about lack of MSG presence on the schedule, in the past our MSG presence was helped by "invitations" to pre-season NIT, Coaches vs. Cancer, Holiday festival, etc. Also the members of the "old" Big East were more conducive to SJU "hiring" MSG as high attendence was almost guaranteed with schools like ND, Cuse, Rutgers (with local rivalry) and Miami. Nova, Gtown, Conn and Seton Hall (with local rivalry) are the remaining teams that have draw power to justify cost of "renting" the Garden. While good basketball teams such as Butler, Xavier, Creighton, DePaul, Providence and Marquette can be exiting games, they don't put fannies in the seats. PS--we are getting 2 games at the Barkley Center which Brooklyn Red loves-nothing like walking to a game and hopefully one of them is Cuse.
