The biggest problem with Marinetto is his inability to change the game plan.  IMO it is very clear that the Big East is not going to continue as both a premier basketball conference and BCS level football conference.   He needs to come up with another game plan for achieving a best case scenario for the majority of his membership.     I think that is likely going to be as Premier Basketball conference only or as a Premier Basketball Conference that also has a small inconsequential football group.

I don't see why the BCS would want to commit one of its member bowls to having to bestow charity on the Big East each year by taking one of the following.... UConn, Cincy, Louisville, Rutgers, USF, Houston, SMU, Army, Navy, Temple, Memphis, Air Force, Boise State.

The biggest name currently there is Boise State, but I would be very careful handling them if that is all I was getting with all of the rumors circulating about their unsavory practices.  They may find themselves slapped by the NCAA and in a Miami position before too long and then what do you have?    Sure there is the possibility that one of those schools has a BCS caliber year, but would you be willing to bet many millions of dollars that one will?
