Villanova Basketball’s Acaden Lewis: Rewriting The Script
In the current period of men’s college basketball, starting lineups are often built on veteran transfers, not on inexperienced freshmen. However, on the Main Line, things are going off script. The transfer portal has allowed programs to spend money on experience, which has allowed them not to...

Villanova has struggled with the Big 5 the last couple years. Crazy how important these games are for the Big East already. Dayton and LaSalle are nothing to write home about. Really need them to get the league back on track. I don't care how good it is for us in the long run, I'm not rooting for UConn.

Did the writer see who Seton Hall's opponents were? they have a combined 7-16 record.
A tweet to generate discussions and discord. Several of those teams haven't really beaten anyone, if you catch my drift.

We rooting for UConn and the benefits that would come with that (power win for Big East and better for our resume if we beat them a game or two) or we want them to lose so they don’t win another game against a Top 10 team and strengthen their seeding resume for March?
Ditto. I can’t figure out who to pull for in this game.
Being truthful, we whiffed too many times at the Pg spot this off-season. We had multiple options. Love Darling but we whiffed at our top targets.
Can’t root for UConn. They don’t want to be here. They’ll always be competing so I have zero care what they do for the conference.
Have to root for UConn. A loss at home would be bad for the whole conference.
Yeah I hate the Yukon. My thought was not what they do for the conference but rather how great we will look after we beat them three times.
This. The conference has had a pretty mediocre few years with the BIG exception of UConn's two titles. We need at least one highly ranked team to face during the months from late December through March. Pitino is leaning into the rivalry because he knows how important it is to St. John's. Maybe they leave one day, but for now it was clearly the right call to add them as they've helped everyone financially with Tournament credits, our recent TV deal, national credibility, etc.
