"The Big East is about to become the Big Deceased, and the Knights should not pay a dime let alone millions of dollars -- to join a league that is really no better than the one they are leaving."

Wow, that sums it up well. But there are those who insist it isn't true.

Great article. Spot on!

I didn't get to read the article; I guess they had pulled the page. The Orlando Sentinel usually doesn't pull punches and I imagine that they were plain-spoken. The key is Boise. If they can keep them they have a chance. The MWC is stuck with a goshawful TV contract with CBS for several more years so Boise and SDSU returning to the Mountain West is no slam dunk. Whether BSU goes now or when the contract is up, I still believe that they go. UCF may read the writing on the wall and try to return to CUSA. They're certainly welcome in my book.
