Message: [QUOTE="jdubs30, post: 5709200, member: 1620"] The big east had as many bids as the WCC and 1 more bid than the A10 and MAC. The committee gave the team that won the regular season and conference championship a 5 seed despite 26 wins and 18-2 in the conference. You could certainly argue whether or not leaving the BigEast hurt us in basketball. But the conference itself is a mid major. UConn has been really good. StJohns was cooked before Pitino showed up. The third best coach in the conference is Kevin Willard lol. Most of the league is irrelevant. Our issues have nothing to do with conference affiliation. If anything Red would have had more wins the big east - UConn had to play Xavier and Georgetown to get to the conference title game [/QUOTE]
