Message: [QUOTE="Madbiker, post: 1202925, member: 312"] Tranghese totally mismanaged Big East football. Never realized football was important for future growth. He even went to the ACC at one point to see if they were interested in having Big East football play in their conference while retaining them for basketball. I've always thought that is what gave Swofford the idea to just poach the big East teams. If Tranghese had anything on the ball he would have brought Penn St into the Big East before their romance with the B1G and with PSU and Miami anchoring football the conference would have been solid. MT may have known basketball but he was a complete failure in understanding where college athletics and football was heading. [/QUOTE]
