Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 429514, member: 622"] I know this sounds homerish, but Syracuse was the heart of the Big East. We were the only original school fully dedicated to hoops and football, sure, others followed suit but we were a driving force to form the football side of things. We were the driving force to expand with Pitt and Ped State (pre-pedophilia, of course). We got WVU into the conference, and eventually had them added for hoops. Aside from MSG, what other hoops arena is more recognizable than the Dome? what other arena has as much history as the Dome (MSG excluded)? Fans of other teams have commented that Syracuse was the heart of the conference. Has that ever been said of any other school? [/QUOTE]
