Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 23684, member: 652"] This article is a too early for my taste but its true. [URL]http://deadspin.com/5842935/the-big-east-is-reaping-what-its-founder-sowed[/URL] Dave Gavitt knew the future of Providence College basketball couldn't sustain itself and so his plan was to hitch PC's wagons to other programs in a conference that would allow it compete and remain in a power conference. Really this whole conference boils down to protect a Catholic school in the smallest state in the country with an enrollment of 3,850 the ability to play major basketball. Now I know SU benefited from the Big East, but ask yourself if we needed the conference more than these other schools. While I realize we aren't North Carolina or Kentucky the Dome would always be a recruiting tool for SU. [/QUOTE]
