overall i would say the Syracuse Big east schedule is not nearly as brutal as some of the other teams which could be very helpfull During Selection Sunday. I think Syracuse might be able to pull of 10-11 Big East wins this year.

Pitt signed Jamie Dixon to a three year extension through 2016.

Sucks for UConn, Think he will get suspended?

Not sure, I don't think it's as bad as looks but we'll see.

He got a restraining order placed against him by some girl (and from what I've read girls can get those extremely easily because judges always prefer to take the cautionary side of things) and as soon as he walked out of the RO meeting he called the girl, lol. So 15 minutes after he was told he had the RO he contacted the girl, violating the RO. It's nto a good sign obviously, the kid already has a checked past and is now in trouble less than a month into the Fall semester.

from looking at syracuse schedule i think they will go 11-7 in big east play.
i think the conference standings will look like this
1. Connecuit
2. Pittsburgh
3. Notre Dame
4. Louisville
5. Marquette
6. Villanova
7. Syracuse
8. West Virginia
9. Georgetown
10. Cincinnatti
11. Providence
12.Depaul
13.Seton Hall
14. St Johns
15. USF
16. Rutgers

[EWRMETS]

No way that Rutgers is the worst team in the league this year after having one of the best recruiting classes in the conference.

i wil be honest i dont much about rutgers, usf, seton hall, and st johns. so i took a random guess. i think i know some things about providence and depaul. but i do these things for fun. so i could be completely wrong i just cant wait for big east basketball this year
