I am not that knowledgeable about the political background of certain schools leaving the Big East, But purely from my limited layman's perspective I am happy with the current Big East and think it is the best conference to be in for ball and that we all should stick together. Outside of conference games I will always root for the Big East team to win but could never find myself doing this for Syracuse or UConn no matter what conference they will be in at any given time. I just feel like their fan base and admin is disrespectful overall to SJU.
