No complaints about big east seeding.

The Big East continues to get the respect it deserves by the committee. More respect than from the idiot bracketologists
Stony Brook Red, Connecticut Blue, and Big East basketball!

St. John's will decline an NIT bid, per school.

Seton Hall and several other programs that missed the NCAA Tournament also declined bids, including fellow Big East teams St. John's and Xavier.

Hall athletics director Bryan Felt:
“Kevin (Willard) and I talked about it, and Kevin talked with his team about it,” Felt said. “This year was a grind with everything these guys had to do — there were tons of demands with the (COVID) guidelines.”

“We are disappointed how the season ended but we are excited for the future," Steele said. "As much as we would like to continue playing games, we decided that the best decision for the future of our program is to devote the extra allowable practice time in March to individual instruction. We have a very young team and our coaching staff is looking forward to the opportunity to work extensively with these guys, which is something we were not able to do this past spring and summer. We will have extended opportunities for development through the end of the current season and we plan to take full advantage of the time to improve individually and as a team.”

Really like the seeding for the Big East teams. Hoping to see 2 second weekend teams. Also like to see that Michigan St. and UCLA go put in the first four, will be interesting to watch.

Ha! Good one.

We may be safe, because VD accepted an invitation to play in the NIT. That's what VD does.

Muddy probably is busy doing a deep 67-link dive on whichever pitiful program they've been matched up against in Dallas.

Let's be greedy. The Hoyas are hot. Creighton is due for a breakthrough. UCONN is gaining steam, especially with Bouknight staying healthy. And I would never bet against Nova, wounded or not.

I also like you highlighting the Spartans v. Bruins game, and I can only hope that Cronin looks ever bit the Yellow Toothed Gnome that he is by the time that one finishes up.

I know I’m a Big East homer but I think 4-0 in round 1 is a strong possibility.....

Uconn has a great path to the Sweet 16. Alabama is a terrible rebounding team. UConn will get offensive rebound after offensive rebound.
