Everyone stepped up their game from Georgetown to UConn. heck even USF HAD had a great year. Syracuse and Villanova along with Pitt made this league one for the ages.
Yes the league name will continue on and I look for great things from Georgetown, Villanova, and Marquette. I think You should look into adding VCU, and Wichata ST as I've previously stated to fill out East and West additions. Good luck in the future BE endeavor as We are a part of the BE history forever.
Well I think they made a great league become the greatest league. UConn had already won 2 national titles in the decade before they came along. I think the conference helped those schools more then they helped the league. All of those programs were able to make the jump to the next level because of their new association with the league.
UofL is a great program and I'm sure Rick will have them in the running for many ACC titles in the years to come. Them moving to the big east and Pitino coming on board really allowed them to retain the level they had under crum.
