Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 1828377, member: 1969"] The Big East was still not at that level it would be around 2008-2010. The level of play compared to B12 was about the same, and this could be seen from reviewing KenPom ratings from 2003. Syracuse dominated the B12 in the tourney not because the BE was much better, but because it was a young team with its 3 dominant players (2 frosh + 1 soph) who were growing and developing rapidly. That being said in 2003 the BE was starting it's upswing from a somewhat lacking 10-12 year period for the conference (other than 1996) [/QUOTE]
