I'm sick of the Big East bashing nationally, especially within a conference team fan base! This is still a power league, and that's with MU, GTown, and St. Johns not being as good as usual. This is an excellent league.
Keep telling yourself that. It's a GOOD league...but it's NOT the ACC, SEC, BXII etc, or anywhere close to the old Big East. Don't you think it's ironic that MU has struggled badly, in a lessor league?? That's NOT the way it was supposed to be. I totally understand what being a strong conference means...look at what the old Big East did for MU. That's obvious...the problem is, this conference will NEVER do that for them, unless they get to the point where they are dominating it year in year out..then MAYBE. But no team has taken more steps backwards with this conference change than has MU...that doesn't concern you?? At all??
