The 2011-12 academic year is the 33rd in the history of The BIG EAST Conference as the unique consortium marches on compet-ing at the highest level with integrity and sportsmanship.

The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth, but the 2011-12 year marks the conference’s seventh straight with the same 16-member group, making for the nation’s largest Division I-A conference.

The BIG EAST Conference’s goals have always been the same. The outstanding performances of the student-athletes at BIG EAST schools are evidence of the league’s proud tradition of success. The league has always been able to boast that many of its best students are also its best athletes. The 2010-11 year was no different.

Seven BIG EAST student-athletes were named NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners, while 22 earned Capital One Academic All-America recognition. Maya Moore, Connecticut’s women’s basketball standout, won the NCAA Honda-Broderick Cup as the nation’s top female student-athlete and was chosen as the Capital One Academic All-America of the Year.

In the athletic arena, BIG EAST student-athletes again enjoyed success on the national stage. The Connecticut men’s basketball team won its third national championship, completing a magical run through five games of the BIG EAST Championship and six wins in the NCAA tournament. The Villanova women’s cross country team won the NCAA title for the second straight year and the ninth time overall. The Notre Dame women’s soccer team won its third NCAA title, while BIG EAST teams reached national championship games in women’s basketball (Notre Dame) and men’s soccer (Louisville).

The BIG EAST placed two teams in the NCAA Women’s Final Four for the second time in the last three years as Connecticut joined Notre Dame in Indianapolis, capping a season in which the Huskies extended their NCAA-record winning streak to 90 games.

Individually, BIG EAST student-athletes won five NCAA champi-onships, including an unprecedented four by Villanova’s Sheila Reid. Reid was the 2010 individual cross country champion, a member of the Wildcats’ winning indoor distance medley relay team and won the 5,000- and 1,500-meter titles in outdoor track & field.

Louisville’s Matt Hughes, meanwhile, repeated as the NCAA cham-pion in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at the NCAA outdoor meet. Moore and Reid joined Notre Dame soccer standout Melissa Henderson as winners of Honda Sports Awards as the top perform-ers in their respective sports. Moore also became the first three-time winner of the Wade Trophy as the nation’s top women’s basketball player and joined Villanova lacrosse player Brian Karalunas as win-ners of the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award. BIG EAST football maintained its national profile as a com-petitively balanced group. Connecticut claimed the league’s Bowl Championship Series bid for the first time as the Huskies shared the conference title with Pittsburgh and West Virginia. Six of the league’s eight squads went to bowl games and helped the BIG EAST post a 4-2 bowl record for the second straight year. The BIG EAST became the nation’s largest Division I-A confer-ence in 2005-06 when five new members began competing – the University of Cincinnati, DePaul University, the University of Louisville, Marquette University and the University of South Florida. BIG EAST institutions reside in nine of the nation’s top 35 larg-est media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Tampa, Pittsburgh, Hartford, Cincinnati and Milwaukee. With its newest members, BIG EAST markets contain almost one-fourth of all television households in the U.S. Since opening its doors in 1979, the league has won 31 nation-al championships in six different sports and 133 student-athletes have won individual national titles. In 2003-04, Connecticut became the first school in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball titles in the same season. In ’02-03, the BIG EAST became the first conference in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s titles in the same year when the Syracuse men and the Connecticut women captured their respective national championships. In men’s basketball, BIG EAST squads have won four of the last 13 NCAA championships. BIG EAST women’s teams have taken seven of the last 12 NCAA titles. Proactive movement has been a signature strategy for the con-ference that was born in 1979. The BIG EAST continually turns

challenges into opportunities to become stronger. The conference currently crowns champions in 24 sports.

The BIG EAST became a reality on May 31, 1979, following a meeting of athletic directors from Providence College, St. John’s, Georgetown and Syracuse universities. Seton Hall, Connecticut and Boston College completed the original sevenschool alliance.

While the membership has both increased and changed, the focus of the BIG EAST has not wavered. The conference reflects a tradition of broadbased programs, led by administrators and coaches who place a constant emphasis on academic integrity. Its studentathletes own significantly high graduation rates and their record of scholastic achievement notably show a balance between intercollegiate athletics and academics.

Any successful organization has had the good fortune to have outstanding leadership. The BIG EAST primarily was the brainchild of Dave Gavitt, who was the conference’s first Commissioner. Michael Tranghese, the league’s first full-time employee, and for 11 years the associate to Gavitt, became Commissioner in 1990. In his

first year, he administered the formation of The BIG EAST Football Conference. John Marinatto, who had served as senior associate commis-sioner, moved into the Commissioner’s chair in 2009 and has con-tinued to steer the conference on its path of success. The league has long been considered a leader in innovative con-cepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regarding television. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for BIG EAST studentathletes. The conference has enjoyed longstanding relation-ships with CBS, ESPN, Inc. and ABC. BIG EAST men’s basketball games are regular sellouts at cam-pus and major public arenas, including the annual men’s BIG EAST Championship in Madison Square Garden. The women’s basketball championship has led all conferences in attendance for the past eight years. Attendance figures also are significant in soccer and baseball. The BIG EAST has its headquarters in Providence where the con-ference administers to more than 5,500 student-athletes.

BIG EAST BitsHUSKIES WON IT ALLConnecticut won the NCAA title for the third time since 1999. The Huskies defeated Butler 53-41 in the 2011 championship game at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas. Guard Kemba Walker was named the Final Four Most Outstanding Player. UConn reached the Final Four after winning the West Regional, making their fourth Final Four trip since 1999. They previously won the NCAA title in 1999 and 2004. In 2009, they lost to Michigan State in the semifinals. Since 1999, only Michigan State has made more Final Four trips than UConn. The Spartans have gone six times. UConn has won three of the BIG EAST’s six NCAA men’s basketball championships.

HUSKIES KEEP BIG EAST IN FINAL FOUR NEWSConnecticut’s trip to the 2011 Final Four gives the BIG EAST five Final Four appearances in the last five seasons with four different teams.2011 — Connecticut2010 — West Virginia2009 — Connecticut, Villanova2007 — Georgetown

BIG EAST AND THE FINAL FOURIncluding Connecticut in 2010-11, a BIG EAST team has made the Final Four 17 times in 32 years of competition. A BIG EAST squad has played in the national title game 10 times. The conference’s NCAA champions are: Georgetown (1984), Villanova (1985), Connecticut (‘99, 2004 and 2011) and Syracuse (2003). Recent additional appearances were made by Louisville and Marquette just before both schools began competing in the BIG EAST in 2005-06. Louisville made it in 2005 and Marquette in 2003. Fifteen of the 16 league schools have played in the Final Four.

FINAL FOUR COACHES CLUB INCLUDES SIX In 2009, Villanova’s Jay Wright became the sixth current BIG EAST head coach to participate in a Final Four. Connecticut’s Jim Calhoun made his fourth trip (2011, 2009, 2004, 1999). Louisville’s Rick Pitino is one of only two coaches in NCAA history to lead three different teams to the Final Four: Providence (1987), Kentucky (1997, ‘96, ‘93) and Louisville (2005). Jim Boeheim has been to the Final Four three times with Syracuse (2003, ‘96, ‘87). West Virginia’s Bob Huggins made it in 2010 and guided Cincinnati to the 1992 Final Four. Georgetown’s John Thompson III led the Hoyas to the Final Four in 2007.

NBA TAKES THREE IN FIRST ROUNDThree BIG EAST players were taken in the first round of the 2011 NBA Draft. Kemba Walker was selected ninth overall by the Charlotte Bobcats. Providence’s Marshon Brooks went 25th to the Boston Celtics and was traded to the New Jersey Nets. Marquette’s Jimmy Butler was taken 30th by the Chicago Bulls. For the past 11 years, at least one BIG EAST player has been a top-10 pick.

FIVE SCHOOLS TRAVEL ABROADFive BIG EAST teams took summer trips abroad. DePaul visited France where it played four games. The Blue Demons compiled a 4-0 record, beat-ing four different French teams in four different cities. Georgetown played four games on a nine-day tour of China where it competed against Chinese professional teams, including the Chinese Taipei national team. The Hoyas finished unbeaten on the tour. Louisville earned a 2-0 record during a trip to the Bahamas where they played two Bahamian professional teams. Villanova toured Europe, playing games in France, Luxembourg and The Netherlands. The Wildcats had a 1-4 record while playing national teams from Sengal (twice), Israel, The Netherlands and Georgia. West Virginia trav-eled to Italy where it posted a 4-0 record by beating Italian professional and club teams. The Mountaineers also teamed with the University of Illinois to spend a day entertaining troops at the Aviano Air Base with a clinic, scrim-mage and slam dunk contest.

LAMB, BELL EXCELLED ON USA BASKETBALL U19 SQUADConnecticut’s Jeremy Lamb and Villanova’s James Bell helped USA Basketball’s U19 team place fifth at the 2011 FIBA U19 World Championships in Riga, Latvia this past July. Lamb, whose tip-in gave USA a 78-77 win over Australia in the game to decide fifth place, led the team in scoring with a 16.2 average. Bell averaged 3.8 points and 3.1 rebounds.

BIG EAST MAINTAINED ELITE EIGHT STREAKThe BIG EAST is the only conference to place at least one team in every NCAA Elite Eight since 2002. Seven different squads — Connecticut (2011, ‘09, ‘04, ‘02), West Virginia (2010, ‘05), Louisville (‘09, ‘08), Georgetown (‘07, ‘06), Villanova (‘09, ‘06), Pittsburgh (‘09) and Syracuse (‘03) — have reached the final eight over the last 10 seasons.

Connecticut won its third NCAA title in 2011, defeating Butler in the national championship game.


BIG EAST BitsALL-TIME NCAA RECORDSBIG EAST teams compiled a 13-10 record in the 2011 NCAA Championship. Since the league began play in 1979-80, BIG EAST teams own a 276-170 (.619) record in NCAA play. The BIG EAST has had only one season when its teams had a combined losing record in the NCAAs. In 1992-93, the league was 2-3. Since the BIG EAST has been in its current 16-team configuration, the league has an 89-65 (.577) record in NCAA play.

HALF OF BIG EAST HAS BEEN TO SWEET 16 IN PAST FIVE YEARSWith the addition of Marquette this past year, eight BIG EAST teams have advanced to the NCAA Regional Semifinals over the past five years. Before this season, Connecticut last made it to the Sweet 16 round in 2009 when it advanced to the Final Four.

BIG EAST LEADS IN SWEET 16 APPEARANCESWith two NCAA Sweet 16 teams in 2011 (Connecticut and Marquette) the BIG EAST has had the most teams reach the regional semifinal round over the last nine seasons.

REGIONAL SEMIFINALISTS (2003-11)BIG EAST 27Big 12 19ACC 18

MARQUETTE was ONLY THE SECOND NO. 11 SEED TO REACH THE SWEET 16Marquette became only the second No. 11 NCAA seed from the BIG EAST to reach the NCAA Regional Semifinals. The only other league squad to make the Sweet 16 with a seed as low as 11 was Connecticut in 1991.

BIG EAST RECEIVED 11 INVITATIONSThe BIG EAST Conference received a record 11 bids to the NCAA Championship. The BIG EAST had held the previous record of eight in 2006, ‘08 and ‘10. Pittsburgh, the league regular-season champion, received the No. 1 seed in the Southeast Region. Nine of the 11 teams received a No. 6 seed or higher.

20 WINS REMAINS A GOOD YARDSTICKWhen a BIG EAST team reaches 20 wins by the end of conference tourna-ment play, it has an excellent chance of receiving an NCAA invitation. Since the BIG EAST began in 1979-80, 147 of 152 teams with 20 wins received NCAA bids. This year, all 11 BIG EAST teams in the NCAA Championship had at least 20 wins. Last season, the BIG EAST had nine 20-win squads.

BIG EAST WAS 16-11 AGAINST RANKED OPPONENTSBIG EAST teams compiled a 16-11 record against teams ranked in the top 25 of the two major polls. That was the best record against ranked foes of any conference.

CONNECTICUT MADE EPIC JOURNEY TO WINBIG EAST CHAMPIONSHIPLast March, the Connecticut Huskies did what no Division I team had ever done in a conference tournament, winning five games in five days to capture the tourney crown. Entering as a No. 9 seed, the Huskies defeated in order: DePaul (97-71), Georgetown (79-62), Pittsburgh (76-74), Syracuse (76-71, ot) and Louisville (69-66). UConn was only the second No. 9 seed to win the BIG EAST championship. Syracuse did it in 2006.

SYRACUSE, LOUISVILLE WERE SECOND, THIRD IN ATTENDANCESyracuse and Louisville ranked second and third, respectively, in national attendance last season. Syracuse averaged 22,312 fans in 19 home dates. Louisville averaged 21,832 fans in their first season in the KFC Yum! Center. Six other BIG EAST teams ranked in the top 40: Marquette, 11th (15,586), Georgetown 25th (12,675), Connecticut 32nd (11,569), West Virginia 33rd (11,529), Pittsburgh 36th (10,843) and Villanova 38th (10,511). Louisville had the third largest increase from the previous year with a change of 2,435. St. John’s had the fourth largest increase, moving from a 6,107 aver-age two years ago to 8,431 last season.

CONNECTICUT MADE EPIC JOURNEY TO WINBIG EAST CHAMPIONSHIPLast March, the Connecticut Huskies did what no Division I team had ever done in a conference tournament, winning five games in five days to capture the tourney crown. Entering as a No. 9 seed, the Huskies defeated in order: DePaul (97-71), Georgetown (79-62), Pittsburgh (76-74), Syracuse (76-71, ot) and Louisville (69-66). UConn was only the second No. 9 seed to win the BIG EAST championship. Syracuse did it in 2006.

BIG EAST GAUNTLET WAS AS TOUGH AS NCAA’SConnecticut’s five-game run to the BIG EAST Championship included wins against four top-25 teams (Georgetown, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Louisville) in as many days. The Huskies’ road to the NCAA title included three top-25 victo-ries (San Diego State, Arizona, Kentucky) in six games.

WALKER LED UCONN IN NEW YORK Connecticut guard Kemba Walker shattered The BIG EAST Championship scoring record while leading the Huskies to the title. He scored 130 points in the five contests to average 26.0 ppg in New York. Walker won the Dave Gavitt Trophy as the tourney’s Most Outstanding Player.

CLOSE GAMES AT THE GARDENThe BIG EAST Championship Presented by American Eagle Outfitters had plenty of drama throughout the five days in New York in addition to the UConn/Kemba Walker storyline. Three of the games went into overtime including both semifinal contests. The Huskies won the championship game 69-66 against Louisville.

PITT WON THE REGULAR SEASONPittsburgh was the BIG EAST regular-season champion. The Panthers posted a 15-3 league mark which matched their 15-3 record in 2008-09. For the third time in league history, Pitt was the top seed at The BIG EAST Championship. The other No. 1-seed years were 2003 and 1988.

BIG EAST Bits

CINCINNATI, ST. JOHN’S RETURN TO NCAA FIELDCincinnati and St. John’s, two programs steeped in NCAA tradition, returned to the NCAA Championship after absences of several years. Cincinnati’s last NCAA appearance was in 2005. This season, the Bearcats finished 26-9 under coach Mick Cronin. St. John’s, which finished 21-12 under first-year coach Steve Lavin, was in the NCAAs for the first time since 2002.

SURPRISES FROM THE PRESEASON POLLPitt was the preseason favorite in the BIG EAST Coaches’ Preseason Poll and the Panthers won the regular-season title. Not every finish followed the poll closely, however. Notre Dame finished second with a 14-4 record after being picked seventh. Louisville placed third after being picked in a tie for eighth place. Cincinnati finished tied for sixth after being tabbed for 12th place.

NON-LEAGUE RECORD BEST SINCE 1993-94BIG EAST teams amassed a 170-49 (.776) record against non-conference competition in the 2010-11 season. That is the league’s best mark since 1993-94, when the conference had a .792 winning percentage against other leagues.

BIG EAST HAD NINE IN AP POLL TWICETwice this season, the BIG EAST tied its own record in the Associated Press poll with nine ranked teams. In the polls Jan. 17 and March 7, the AP poll included nine teams in the top 25, which matched the record set in January 2009.

NATIONAL SEMIFINALS ARE STILL SPECIALAfter Connecticut’s win against Kentucky in the national semifinals, the BIG EAST has an 8-4 record in the Final Four semifinals against non-conference opposition. Two times BIG EAST teams have played each other in the Final Four semifinals -- Syracuse beat Providence in ‘87 (77-63) and Georgetown topped St. John’s in ‘85 (77-59).

HANSBROUGH WAS PLAYER OF THE YEAR Notre Dame guard Ben Hansbrough was named BIG EAST Player of the Year. He finished his season with an 18.4 scoring average and helped the Irish to a surprising second-place finish in the regular season with a 14-4 mark.

Gibbs Selected BIG EAST Preseason Player of the yearPittsburgh guard Ashton Gibbs has been named 2011-12 BIG

EAST Preseason Player of the Year by a vote of the league’s head men’s basketball coaches. It is the fifth time in league history that a Pittsburgh player has captured BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year honors.

Connecticut freshman center Andre Drummond was chosen BIG EAST Preseason Rookie of the Year. Coaches were not permitted to vote for their own players.

Gibbs is a 6-2 senior who was an All-BIG EAST First Team selec-tion last year. He led the Panthers in scoring with a 16.8 average. He was first in the league in 3-point shooting, making 49 percent, and second in free throw shooting, hitting at an 88.9-percent clip. A native of Scotch Plains, N.J., Gibbs enters the season third on the BIG EAST career list in 3-point shooting percentage at 45.4 per-cent.

The other Panthers to earn Preseason Player of the Year hon-ors are Charles Smith (1986-87), Jerome Lane (1987-88), Brandin Knight (2002-03) and Aaron Gray (2006-07).

Drummond is a 6-11 freshman center from Middletown, Conn. He also was chosen Preseason All-BIG EAST Honorable Mention.

In addition to Gibbs, five players earned All-BIG EAST First Team recognition. The group includes a graduate student, three seniors and a sophomore.

Notre Dame’s Tim Abromaitis is the graduate student. The 2010 and 2011 American Eagle Outfitters BIG EAST Men’s Basketball Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Abromaitis helped the Irish on the court by averaging 15.4 points and 6.1 rebounds. The 6-8 forward also is one of the conference’s best long-range shooters. He made 42.9 percent from beyond the arc last year.

Darius Johnson-Odom is Marquette’s top-notch offensive force. The 6-2 senior guard averaged 15.8 points last season, which ranked seventh in the BIG EAST. In league play, he was even more productive, averaging 17.2 points. Johnson-Odom helped the Golden Eagles reach the NCAA Sweet 16 and finish with a 22-15 record last season.

Syracuse’s Kris Joseph earned third-team conference hon-ors last season after averaging a team-leading 14.3 points and 5.2 rebounds. The 6-7 senior forward also averaged 1.5 steals. Joseph helped the Orange finish 27-8 last year and No. 12 in the final Associated Press poll.

West Virginia’s Kevin Jones has been a three-year contributor as a scorer and rebounder. The 6-8 senior forward averaged 13.1 points and led the Mountaineers in rebounding with a 7.5 mark. Entering the 2011-12 season, Jones leads all league players with 612 points and 364 rebounds in conference games.

Jeremy Lamb is a sophomore guard who played a key role in Connecticut’s march to the national championship last year. For the season, he averaged 11.1 points and shot 48.7 percent from the floor while making the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team. The 6-5 guard was a standout on the USA Basketball U-19 Team that com-peted at the World Championships this past summer.

The Preseason All-BIG EAST Second Team includes two seniors and three juniors. The seniors are Cincinnati forward Yancy Gates and Syracuse guard Scoop Jardine. The juniors are Connecticut forward/center Alex Oriahki, Louisville guard Peyton Siva and Villanova guard Maalik Wayns.

The 2011-12 Preseason All-BIG EAST Honorable Mention group includes Drummond, teammate Shabazz Napier, DePaul forward Cleveland Melvin, Marquette forward Jae Crowder and USF for-ward/center Augustus Gilchrist.

2011-12 Preseason Predictions


Previewing The 2011-12 Season

Connecticut, Syracuse Tie for first Place In Preseason Connecticut and Syracuse are the co-favorites to win the

2011-12 BIG EAST men’s basketball regular-season crown in the BIG EAST Preseason Coaches’ Poll. The Huskies, who won the 2011 NCAA national championship, received seven first-place votes and a total of 209 points. The Orange, who finished last season with a 27-8 record, collected five first-place votes. It is the third tie for first place in the history of the BIG EAST with the last coming in 2007-08. The league’s head coaches do not place their own teams on their ballots.

The Huskies, coached by Jim Calhoun, welcome back three starters, including sophomore guard Jeremy Lamb, a 2011-12 Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team pick, and junior forward Alex Oriakhi, a Preseason All-BIG EAST Second Team selec-tion. Freshman forward Andre Drummond was named BIG EAST Preseason Rookie of the Year.

The strength of the Orange in 2011-12 starts with senior forward Kris Joseph, a member of the Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team. Junior guard Scoop Jardine who led the BIG EAST in assists with a 6.1 average in league play, is a Preseason All-BIG EAST Second Team pick.

Louisville finished third in the poll with 201 points and three first-place votes. The Cardinals return 11 lettermen including three starters from last year’s team that finished 25-10 overall and 12-6 in the BIG EAST. Junior guard Peyton Siva is a top all-around contributor to the UofL success. Last season, he aver-aged 9.9 points, was fourth in the league in assists with a 5.2 average and second in steals at 2.0. He is a Preseason All-BIG EAST Second Team selection.

Pittsburgh is a solid fourth in the poll with 188 points and one first-place vote. The Panthers won the BIG EAST regular-season crown last season and finished 28-6 overall. This year, Pitt will depend on senior guard Ashton Gibbs, the 2011-12 BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year.

Cincinnati was placed fifth in the poll, its highest position since joining the BIG EAST in 2005-06. Last year, the Bearcats finished 26-9 overall, 11-7 in the league and earned an NCAA berth for the first time since 2005. Coach Mick Cronin welcomes back three starters, including senior forward Yancy Gates, a Preseason All-BIG EAST Second Team selection.

Marquette, placed sixth in the poll, will be aiming for its seventh straight NCAA bid. Guard Darius Johnson-Odom, a Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team pick, will give coach Buzz Williams a proven scorer. Last year, the Golden Eagles finished 22-15 and advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 for the first time since 2003.

West Virginia was picked seventh. The Mountaineers fig-ure to be led by senior forward Kevin Jones who made the Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team. Last season, WVU compiled its seventh straight 20-win season, finishing 21-12.

Villanova was slotted for eighth place. Like West Virginia, the Wildcats finished 21-12 and were one of the BIG EAST’s record 11 NCAA tourney teams. This season, coach Jay Wright will not have a senior on his squad. Junior guard Maalik Wayns is the top returning scorer with a 13.8 average.

The coaches chose Notre Dame ninth. The Irish recorded the second highest win total in school history last year when they finished 27-7 overall and were 14-4 in the BIG EAST. Notre Dame will miss guard Ben Hansbrough, last year’s BIG EAST Player of the Year, but will lean on Tim Abromaitis who made the 2011-12 Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team.

2011-12 Preseason Coaches’ Poll

All 16 Teams Will Come To New YorkThe BIG EAST will once again send all 16 of its teams to

New York City for the 2012 BIG EAST Championship presented by American Eagle Outfitters. The dates for the 2012 tourna-ment are March 6-10.

On Tuesday, March 6, seeds No. 9-16 in a pair of double-headers. The four winners will battle the teams seeded No. 5-8 Wednesday, March 7.

The tournament’s top four seeds await Wednesday’s win-ners in the quarterfinal round on Thursday, March 8. The semifinal round is Friday, March 9. The Saturday-night final, a fixture on the New York sports calendar, begins at 9 p.m. ET.

Conventional logic before last season suggested that it was important to earn a bye to the quarterfinals, as Syracuse (in 2006) and Pittsburgh (in 2008) were the only teams to win the BIG EAST tournament title by earning four victories. But Connecticut shattered that notion last season, becoming the first team in college basketball history to win five games in five days as the Huskies captured their seventh BIG EAST title.

Georgetown is 10th in the poll. The Hoyas will look to senior guard Jason Clark while finding replacements for Clark’s backcourt partners, all-conference players Austin Freeman and Chris Wright.

Rutgers was tabbed for 11th place, the Scarlet Knights’ highest position in the poll since the BIG EAST became a 16-team conference in 2005-06. Rutgers, under second-year coach Mike Rice, expects to improve on last year’s 15-17 record.

BIG EAST Television

BIG EAST’s unprecedented Television Coverage Continues91 Percent of League Games Include an NCAA Tournament Team

Some of the highlights of the current agreement:• Seventy-five of the 144 regular-season BIG EAST games will be on national television (either on CBS, ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU).• Each of the BIG EAST’s 16 teams will make at least three national television appearances in conference games alone.• The 2011-12 season is the fifth straight in which all 144 regular-season league games will be televised.• Forty-five conference games will be carried on ESPN or ESPN2.• CBS will air five conference games and four nonconference games.• ESPNU, which has a reach of more than 73 million homes, will carry at least 25 conference games.• ESPN Regional Television once again produce the BIG EAST Network Game of the Week package, which is available to more than 40 percent of the nation in approximately 43 million households.

Some additional television highlights of the 2011-12 schedule include:

The BIG EAST men’s basketball conference schedule has had two notable characteristics that have become the norm in recent years – all 144 league games televised and more than half on national television. For the upcoming campaign, however, after a season when the BIG EAST placed a record 11 teams in the NCAA Championship and Connecticut won the national title, an incred-ible 91 percent of all conference games in 2011-12 will include a team that played in the 2011 NCAA tourney.

In fact, 67 of the 144 league games will be between two teams that played in the 2011 NCAA Championship. Fifty-six of those games will be on national television. The BIG EAST has always been considered a leader in televi-sion. Twelve BIG EAST teams reside in the top 35 media markets in the country.

Big Monday – The BIG EAST schedule on ESPN’s Big Monday includes eight games over seven weeks. The series starts with a doubleheader on Jan. 16, the Martin Luther King Day holiday. Louisville plays at Marquette at 3:30 p.m. ET and Pittsburgh plays at Syracuse at 7:30 p.m. Every team that appears on Big Monday this season played in the NCAA Championship last March. Cincinnati will host a Big Monday for the first time. The Bearcats will play Syracuse at Fifth Third Arena on Jan. 23. All games on the Big Monday schedule also will be available on ESPN3.com. Prior to the official Big Monday schedule, West Virginia will play at Connecticut on ESPN2 on Monday, Jan. 9. Four other conference games will be shown on Mondays on ESPNU.

Wednesdays – Like last year, ESPN or ESPN2 will show 10 Wednesday games involving BIG EAST teams during the 10-week conference season. The Wednesday schedule begins Dec. 28 with Georgetown at Louisville on ESPN2. Thirteen different BIG EAST teams will be featured on the Wednesday games.

Saturdays – ESPN or ESPN2 will telecast 13 BIG EAST games on Saturdays during the conference season. The Saturday schedule includes a doubleheader on the final day of the regular season, March 3, when Pittsburgh visits Connecticut and Cincinnati plays at Villanova on ESPN2. The BIG EAST Network Game of the Week package continues on Saturdays and Sundays.

Sundays – ESPN or ESPN2 will carry four league games on Sundays, the most ever. On Feb. 5, Villanova visits Pittsburgh. St. John’s travels to Georgetown on Feb. 12. On Feb. 19, ESPN has a doubleheader with Syracuse at Rutgers on ESPN and USF at Pittsburgh on ESPN2.

CBS SPORTS– The nine-game schedule on CBS features nine dif-ferent BIG EAST squads. The first of five conference games will be Marquette at Notre Dame on Feb. 4. On March 3, the final day of the regular season, Louisville plays at Syracuse. Louisville will make the first two BIG EAST appearances on CBS when the Cardinals host Memphis Dec. 17 and play at Kentucky Dec. 31. The other non-league games are Connecticut at Tennessee on Jan. 21 and UCLA at St. John’s on Feb. 18. The BIG EAST and CBS have been formal television partners since 1983-84, the longest relationship of any conference and national broadcast network.

ESPN College GameDay – The BIG EAST will be the only conference scheduled to host ESPN’s signature College GameDay series at two sites. On Jan. 21 in Pittsburgh, the Petersen Events Center will host the GameDay crew and the Panthers’ playing Louisville. On Feb. 25, Connecticut will be the host to ESPN and Syracuse at Gampel Pavilion.

ESPN Rivalry Week – The BIG EAST again will own the most appear-ances on the network’s Rivalry Week. Nine BIG EAST games will appear on ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU. The week begins on Feb. 6, with Connecticut at Louisville in a Big Monday battle. Two nights later, Georgetown and Syracuse renew what is arguably the BIG EAST’s most storied rivalry in the Carrier Dome on ESPN2.

Holiday Week – The BIG EAST league schedule opens Dec. 27 with two games. Pittsburgh, the 2010-11 BIG EAST regular-season cham-pion, plays at Notre Dame on ESPN2. Providence, under Ed Cooley, the league’s only new head coach this season, plays at St. John’s. On Dec. 29, ESPN2 has a pair of BIG EAST clubs playing at home against non-conference opponents. Rutgers hosts Florida and Marquette meets Vanderbilt. ESPNU also has a non-conference battle that evening. It will televise Cincinnati’s home contest against Oklahoma. Louisville plays at Kentucky on CBS Sports on Dec. 31. Four conference games will be played on New Year’s Day, including Villanova at Marquette on ESPNU.

Jimmy V Classic – The BIG EAST will participate in both games of this year’s Jimmy V Classic on Dec. 6 at Madison Square Garden. ESPN will televise Villanova versus Missouri followed by Marquette against Washington.

BIG EAST/SEC Challenge – The BIG EAST/SEC Challenge will match 12 teams from each conference over three nights, Dec. 1-3. ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU will provide exclusive coverage.

NBA All-Star Weekend Game – A BIG EAST game has become an ESPN staple on the Friday night of the NBA All-Star Weekend. This season, Marquette will play at West Virginia on Feb. 24.

MARCH


2012 BIG EAST Championship

2012 BIG EAST Championship presented by American Eagle outfitters The 2012 BIG EAST Championship presented by American Eagle Outfitters will be played at Madison Square Garden in New York City March 6-10. It will be the 30th straight year in which the Garden has hosted the championship event, making it the longest-running conference tournament at one venue in the country. The tournament will include all 16 BIG EAST teams for the fourth con-secutive year. Seeding for the five-day event will be based on regular-season finish. The top four seeds will receive byes through two rounds of tourna-ment play, while the Nos. 5-8 seeds will get first-round byes. The winner of The BIG EAST Championship earns the league’s automatic bid to the 68-team NCAA Championship field. Last year’s tournament was one for the ages as Connecticut, which entered the bracket as the No. 9 seed, did something that no one thought could be done. The Huskies, behind the clutch play of Kemba Walker won five games in five days, including victories against four top-25 teams, to win their seventh BIG EAST title. It is believed to be the first time in college bas-ketball history that a team had played – let alone won – on five consecutive days, and it sent the Huskies to a run to their third NCAA title. Connecticut handled DePaul (97-71) and Georgetown (79-62) in its first two BIG EAST tournament games, but needed some late heroics to advance thereafter. Walker delivered the championship’s signature moment with his pull-up jumper at the buzzer to stun top-seeded Pittsburgh (76-74) in the quarterfinals and he followed with a 33-point performance in a semifinal win against Syracuse in overtime (76-71). Walker, who had 19 points in the 69-66 win against Louisville in the final, shattered the tournament scoring record with 130 points in the Huskies’ five games (an average of 26.0 ppg). He was the easy choice as the winner of the Dave Gavitt Trophy as the tournament’s outstanding player. The all-tournament team consisted of Connecticut’s Jeremy Lamb, Louisville’s Preston Knowles and Peyton Siva, Notre Dame’s Scott Martin and Syracuse’s Rick Jackson.

the Big Picture:After incremental improvement in the first four seasons of the Mick Cronin era, the Bearcats broke through in a big way last year, finishing 26-9 over-all, 11-7 in the BIG EAST, and earning a No. 6 seed in the NCAA Champi-onship. They defeated Missouri in a second-round NCAA contest before falling to eventual national champion Connecticut. It was UC’s first NCAA appearance since 1995. With eight letterwinners, including three start-ers, back in the fold, Cronin and the Bearcats are aiming to become NCAA regulars.

Who’s Back:Yancy Gates, the rugged 6-9, 260-pound low-post standout, was the team’s top scorer and rebounder averaging 11.9 points and 6.9 re-bounds. His strong finish in 2010-11 helped propel the Bearcats down the stretch and into the postseason. Junior Cashmere Wright returns to run the attack from his point guard position. He averaged 8.9 points and 3.9 assists last year. Senior guard Dion Dixon is back with Wright in the backcourt. Dixon averaged 11.6 points last year. Another key return-ee is 6-4 Sean Kilpatrick. As a redshirt freshman, he gave UC some critical offensive punch, averaging 9.7 points and 6.2 rebounds in a sixth-man role. The Bearcats also were helped by 6-8 forward Justin Jackson who appeared in every game and averaged 2.5 points and 2.5 boards as a freshman. Junior guard JaQuon Parker (1.5) also helped.

Who’s Gone:Forwards Rashad Bishop and Ibra-hima Thomas were solid frontcourt contributors last season. The 6-6 Bishop averaged 8.4 points and 4.4 rebounds. Thomas’ contributions came closer the basket. He averaged 5.8 points and 5.4 boards. Forward Darnell Wilks (3.4, 1.9) and guard Larry Davis (3.2, 1.4) were not start-ers but were in Cronin’s regular rota-tion.

storylines: With returning starters Gates, Wright and Dixon, along with top reserve Kil-patrick, the Bearcats should field an-other strong squad. Cincinnati had al-ways been a clawing defensive group and it maintained that reputation last season by leading the BIG EAST in scoring defense, yielding only 59.6 ppg. But the team made significant offensive strides last season, often

led by Kilpatrick. UC improved to third in the league in turnover mar-gin (+2.60). A group of seven new-comers should have opportunities to contribute, though Cronin should not have to depend on them to be key figures.

MARCH3 PITTSBURGH – ESPN/ESPN2 12:00

the Big Picture:Alljourneysthatendwithanationalchampionship are memorable, but the Huskies’ story last year was one for the ages. After losing four of its fi-nal five regular season games, UConn won five times in five days to win The BIG EAST Championship and won six more to take the NCAA crown. Guard Kemba Walker was the undisputed leader who won most outstand-ing player honors in both tourneys. Coach Jim Calhoun became only the fifth coach in college basketball his-tory to own three national champion-ships. Walker took his diploma and his skills to the NBA. What can the Huskies do for an encore? Walker was the only full-time starter to leave, so figure the Huskies to be a strong club in 2011-12.

Who’s Back: Jeremy Lamb led the supporting cast last year, but he looks more than ready to accept a leading role. Last year as a freshman, he averaged 11.1 points and shot 48.7 percent from the field. In the summer, the 6-5 swingman was a standout on the USA Basketball U-19 Team that competed in the World Champion-ships. Shabazz Napier also had an impressive rookie campaign. The 6-0 guard averaged 7.8 points. Both players made 46 3-pointers for the season and were named to the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team. Alex Oriakhi returns in the frontcourt. The athletic 6-9 junior averaged 9.6 points and8.7 rebounds. He also blocked 67 shots. Forward Roscoe Smith started 33 games as a freshman and aver-aged 6.3 points and 5.2 boards. Two more sophomores, guard/forward Niels Giffey and forward Tyler Olan-der helped the cause last year. Giffey made 10 starts, averaged 2.2 points, and was a strong defender. Olander

averaged only 9.6 minutes though he made 21 starts. He averaged 1.5 points and 1.8 rebounds.

Who’s Missing:Walker etched his name into UConn basketball lore with his leadership in the postseason run. A consensus all-American, he averaged 23.5 points, which was fifth in the nation in scor-ing. He was third in the BIG EAST in steals with a 1.9 average. Jamal Coombs-McDaniel, a reserve forward who averaged 5.6 points, transferred. Reserve center Charles Okwandu av-eraged 2.5 points and 2.8 boards while playing 15.4 minutes per game. Reserve guard Donnell Bev-erly was a steadying influence who saw 8.5 minutes per game and aver-aged 1.7 points.

storylines:Even with so many returnees, the Huskies will still be a young team in 2011-12 dominated by sophomores. Lamb and Napier should emerge as standout performers. Oriakhi will pa-trol the paint. Smith and Giffey, who came on strong in the postseason, will make the Huskies strong at forward. Two highly-touted freshmen, point guard Ryan Boatright and 6-8 for-ward DeAndre Daniels, will push the young nucleus. Late in the summer, UConn added 6-11 freshman Andre Drummond who was considered by many to be the top prep player in the nation last year. He should make immediate and significant contribu-tions. Despite last year’s youth, the Huskies maintained their stellar de-fensive reputation. They were first in the league in field goal defense, holding opponents to 39.3 percent.

the Big Picture:As expected, the young Blue Demons struggled in BIG EAST play last sea-son in coach Oliver Purnell’s first year leading the program. Purnell, howev-er, has laid the groundwork for the future. Three freshmen made valu-able contributions last year, including BIG EAST Rookie of the Year Cleve-land Melvin. DePaul plans to give its incoming recruits opportunities to be a part of the Blue Demon resurgence. Purnell wants the improvement to start showing up in the BIG EAST win column.

Who’s Back:DePaul returns eight players, includ-ing four who started at least 18 games last season. Forward Cleveland Mel-vin was the BIG EAST Rookie of the Year after averaging 14.3 points and 5.0 rebounds. Classmate Brandon Young made the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team after finishing second on the team in scoring with a 12.6 mark from his point guard spot. Melvin and Young were the league’s top two rookie scorers. Young also averaged 3.7 assists. Guard Jeremiah Kelly led the squad in minutes played (31.7) while averaging 7.6 points, including a team-high 50 3-pointers. The other starter returning in the frontcourt is senior Krys Faber who averaged 7.0 points and a team-high 5.3 boards. Junior forward Tony Freeland aver-aged 9.6 points and 5.0 rebounds

while making eight starts. Moses Morgan helped provide some offen-sive punch off the bench as a fresh-man. The 6-6 forward averaged 4.8 points. Overall, the Blue Demons re-turn 79.8 percent of their scoring and 68.5 percent of their rebounding.

Who’s Missing:Guard Jimmy Drew was a reliable contributor and a part-time starter. He averaged 6.4 points and was sec-ond to Kelly in 3-pointers with 41. Swingman Mike Stovall also was a part-time starter and averaged 5.4 points. Backup point guard Michael Bizoukas (1.3) transferred.

storylines:Last season, Purnell got great produc-tion from his trio of freshmen – Mel-vin, Young and Morgan – and will look to a five-player freshman class this year to continue to build the pro-gram. Also, 6-9 sophomore forward Donnavan Kirk, a transfer from Mi-ami(Fla.),willbeeligiblejustbeforeThanksgiving. Purnell favors a team that can get up and down the floor. Some immediate help around the basket would be welcomed.

the Big Picture:The Hoyas produced their fifth 20-win season in the last six years with a 21-11mark lastyear.Awrist injurylate in the season to point guard Chris Wright helped derail the team’s post-season aspirations. Wright and his stellar backcourt partner Austin Free-man picked up their diplomas. Both were four-year contributors. Coach John Thompson III will be looking to holdover guard Jason Clark and three other frontcourt regulars to help lead what will be a younger Hoya squad.

Who’s Back:Clark was the third member of the Hoyas’ three-headed backcourt. He averaged 12.0 points. The 6-2 senior has been a double-figure scorer for the past two seasons. Junior Hollis Thompson averaged 8.6 points and 4.4 rebounds while making 22 starts at forward. Senior Henry Sims is back at center. The 6-10 pivot averaged 14.1 minutes as a reserve last season and posted averages of 3.6 points and 3.2 boards. As a freshman last season, forward Nate Lubick made a good first impression by averaging 4.0 points and 3.5 rebounds while playing just less than 20 minutesper game and starting 13 times. He is a physical 6-8 forward who also handles the ball well. Guard Markel Starks is another Hoya who will be asked for more in 2011-12. As a re-serve point guard behind Wright, he

averaged 1.5 points while appearing in 30 games. Sophomore center Mo-ses Avegba saw limited duty.

Who’s Missing:Freemanenjoyedastandoutcareer.Last season, he was fifth in the BIG EAST in scoring with a 17.6 average and was an All-BIG EAST First Team selection. Wright was the speedy distributor who also scored at a 12.9 clip. He was third in the conference in assists with a 5.3 average and made the All-BIG EAST Third Team. Julian Vaughn was a solid contributor in the paint. He averaged 7.8 points and a team-leading 6.1 rebounds.

storylines:It’s never easy to lose three starters, but the most experienced returning players – Clark, Thompson, Lubick and Sims – all have shown they can be good BIG EAST performers. Now, though, they will be asked to take on leading roles. With the loss of Free-man and Wright, Thompson may play a little more on the perimeter. Some freshmen will get long looks to offer some immediate help. In the backcourt, Jabril Trawick will be need-ed to help support Clark and Starks. Redshirt freshman Aaron Brown can help at the shooting guard and small forward. Michael Hopkins and Otto Porter, a pair of 6-8 newcomers, may be most suited to help at small for-ward. Closer to the basket, 6-9 Tyler Adams and 6-8 Greg Whittington will push to be noticed.

the Big Picture:The Cardinals began last season with no regular returning starters, with-out a vote in the Associated Press preseason rankings and an eighth-place slot in the BIG EAST preseason poll. But Louisville ended its season in familiar territory. The Cardinals posted their ninth straight 20-win season with a 25-10 mark, tied for third place in the BIG EAST and fin-ished 14th in the final AP poll. They defeated seven top 25 teams along the way. Coach Rick Pitino begins the 2011-12 campaign with 597 career wins.

Who’s Back:Unlike last year, the Cardinals return a strong nucleus, lettermen and three starters. Forward Kyle Kuric emerged as a top-flite scorer, averaging 10.8 points and 12.6 in league games. He was third in the BIG EAST in 3-point shooting, making 44.9 percent. Guards Peyton Siva and Chris Smith are back. Siva, one of the league’s top guards, averaged 9.9 points and was second in the BIG EAST with a 2.0 steal average. He also was fourth in assists at 5.2. Louisville is hopeful that forward Jared Swopshire can re-turn after he missed all of last season with a hamstring injury. In additionto the three returning starters, the Cardinals should be formidable in the frontcourt with junior RakeemBuckles (6.8), shot-blocking sopho-more Gorgui Dieng (5.7, 57 blocks) and6-9 juniorStephanVanTreese.Six-four juniorMikeMarra (6.4) isa3-point shooting threat. Overall, the

Cardinals return 66 percent of their scoring and 73 percent of their re-bounding.

Who’s Missing:Guard Preston Knowles averaged 14.6 ppg and was a stalwart defend-er. Forward/center Terrence Jennings averaged 9.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and blocked 65 shots. Jennings was third in the BIG EAST in field goal shooting, connecting on 53.3 percent of his shots.

storylines: The Cardinals appear headed to roll up their 10th straight 20-win season and make their 38th NCAA appear-ance. Last season, Louisville made 309 shots from beyond the arc, eas-ily the most in the BIG EAST. The out-side shooting should be strong again. Defensively, UofL was seventh na-tionally in steals with a 9.3 average and was 13th nationally in field goal defense, allowing only 39.4 percent. The Cardinals also forced the most turnovers in the conference (16.1).

MARCH3 GEORGETOWN 2:00

the Big Picture:Marquette is 6-for-6 in attaining NCAA Championship berths in its six seasons as a BIG EAST member. And last year, after compiling a 9-9 con-ference record, the Golden Eagles’ season ended in the NCAA Sweet 16 round after wins over Xavier and Syracuse. Coach Buzz Williams, in his fourth season, welcomes back three starters and seven lettermen from last season’s 22-15 squad.

Who’s Back:Guard Darius Johnson-Odom was an All-BIG EAST Second Team pick after finishing seventh in the league in scoring with a 15.8 average, though he did even better in league games with a 17.2 mark. Forward Jae Crowder is back after averaging 11.8 points and 6.8 boards. He was also second on the team in blocked shots (32) and steals (48). Johnson-Odom and Crowder are seniors. Chris Otule is back at center. The 6-11 junior averaged 5.1 points and 3.6boards. Vander Blue showed promise as a freshman guard, averaging 5.1 points and playing strong defensive-ly. Another guard, Junior Cadougan, averaged 4.0 points and 3.2 assists in a reserve role at the point. Sopho-more Davonte Gardner shared post duty with Otule. Gardner averaged 4.6 points and 2.2 rebounds. Sopho-more forward Jamail Jones saw lim-ited duty.

Who’s Missing: Forward Jimmy Butler was an NBA first-round draft choice. He averaged 15.7 points, 6.1 rebounds and was asoliddefender,buthewas justasvaluable off the court as a leader. Guard Dwight Buycks is the other departing starter. He averaged 8.8 points. Forwards Joseph Fulce (3.2) and Erik Williams (2.2) played sup-portive roles.

storylines:Johnson-Odom and Crowder figure to anchor the squad as the Golden Eagles pursue a seventh straight NCAA appearance. Under Williams, Marquette is known as a team that plays with great intensity. The contin-ued development of Blue and Cadou-gan should make the backcourt an area of strength. Two guard hopefuls, freshmen Todd Mayo and Derrick Wilson, will push to be noticed. For-wards Jamail Wilson and Juan Ander-son may have a little better chance at immediate playing time because the frontcourt is a little thinner in terms of numbers. Last year, MU led the BIG EAST in scoring offense in league play, averaging 73.2 points.

the Big Picture:Picked seventh in the BIG EAST Pre-season Coaches’ Poll last year, the Irish significantly surpassed expec-tations. After splitting their first six league contests, Notre Dame finished in second place in the conference with a 14-4 mark. Guard Ben Hans-brough was named BIG EAST Player of the Year and Mike Brey took BIG EAST Coach of the Year honors. The Irish finished 27-7 overall. The win total was the second highest in school history.

Who’s Back:Forward Tim Abromaitis and guard Scott Martin are the returning start-ers. Abromaitis, who was named the outstanding BIG EAST Scholar-Athlete of the Year in men’s basketball, aver-aged 15.4 points and 6.1 rebounds. He is one of the league’s top long-range shooters, making 42.9 percent from 3-point range last year. Martin, who is also a good outside shooter, averaged 9.7 points and 4.8 boards. Eric Atkins showed promise at point guard as a freshman. Atkins aver-aged 5.8 points and led the BIG EAST in assist/turnover ratio (+2.56) while playing 25.4 minutes per game. Ju-nior forward Jack Cooley emerged as an able contributor in the frontcourt. He averaged 3.7 points and 3.1 re-bounds.

Who’s Missing:Not only did Hansbrough give the Irish tremendous production, he gave the team toughness. Statisti-cally, Hansbrough averaged 18.4 points, 4.3 assists and 3.9 rebounds but he also made the intangible con-tributions that all good teams need. Forwards Carleton Scott and Tyrone Nash were important support staff. Scott averaged 11.2 points and 7.4 rebounds. Nash chipped in 9.5 points and 5.9 boards.

storylines:Brey will be looking for someone to step in the leadership role that Han-sbrough handled so well last season. Abromaitis and Martin are good-sized perimeter shooters – both are 6-8 – who should continue to be quality scoring threats. Atkins should slide easily into the starting spot at point guard. Cooley will have the chance to increase his playing time significantly in the frontcourt. Junior guard Joey Brooks played only 7.6 minutes per game last season, but will be aim-ing for more action. Freshman Pat Connaughton is considered a qual-ity wing player. Six-five guard Jerian Grant will begin his collegiate career after sitting out last season.

the Big Picture:The Panther streak of excellence continued last season. Pitt won the BIG EAST regular season title with a 15-3 mark, earned its 10th straight NCAA berth and finished with a 28-6 record. Under coach Jamie Dixon, the Panthers always seem to be able to put an experienced team on the floor that plays terrific defense. This sea-son, Pitt has to replace three starters, but still seems to have experience at every position. Last year, some statistics helped tell the story. The Panthers were first in the BIG EAST in scoring margin (+13.0) and rebound-ing margin (+10.8).

Who’s Back:Ashton Gibbs tested the NBA Draft waters, but returned for his senior season. A first-team All-BIG EAST selection last year, Gibbs was the team’s leading scorer, averaging 16.8 points. He was first in the BIG EAST in 3-point shooting, making 49 percent and was second in free throw shooting, making 88.9 percent. His 102 3-point baskets also led the BIG EAST. Another senior, forward Nasir Robinson, is back after averaging 9.4 points and 4.9 rebounds. Junior Travon Woodall appears ready for a starter’s role at point guard. Last year, he averaged 6.4 points and 3.4 as-sists and finished second in the BIG EAST in assist/turnover ratio (+2.34). Six-nine forward Dante Taylor aver-aged 5.1 points and 4.5 boards in the regular rotation. Six-nine sophomore Talib Zanna was another forward coming off the bench last year. He av-eraged 3.7 points and 3.4 rebounds

while playing 11.8 minutes per con-test. On the wing, 6-6 J.J. Moore (3.7) and 6-5 Lamar Patterson (2.6), a pair of sophomores, may battle for a start-ing position.

Who’s Missing:Guard Brad Wanamaker did a little of everything for the Panthers. The cap-tain was second in scoring at 11.7 ppg and fifth in the BIG EAST in as-sists at 5.1. He also rebounded at a 5.2 clip and played the typical rug-ged Pitt defense. Gilbert Brown was a quality small forward who averaged 11.3 ppg and shot 41.3 percent from beyond the arc. Senior Gary McGhee kept improving throughout his career and averaged 6.9 points and 7.7 boards. In league games, he shot a league-leading 62.1 percent from the floor.

storylines:Pitt will miss Wanamaker, Brown and McGhee, but the streak of success does not figure to end. Gibbs is one of the nation’s best shooters and will team with Woodall to form an excel-lent backcourt. Robinson returns at the power forward position with the roles of Taylor and Zanna likely to increase. Freshman Khem Birch is ex-pected to push for some immediate playing time in the frontcourt along with Malcolm Gilbert. Freshman Du-rand Johnson may push Patterson and Moore at the small forward. The backcourt reserves include redshirt freshmen Isaiah Epps and Cameron Wright and true freshman John John-son.

MARCH2 at NOTRE DAME TBD

the Big Picture:Ed Cooley is Providence’s new coach and he has hit the ground running preaching dedication, discipline and defense. The Providence native says hehas his dream job.His first Friarteam has some able young parts, but it likely is a little ways away from be-ing a well-oiled machine. Marshon Broooks, the BIG EAST scoring cham-pion and first-round NBA draft pick, has departed. PC has no scholarship seniors on the 2011-12 roster and probablywillstartonlytwojuniors.

Who’s Back:The backcourt of Vincent Council and Gerard Coleman returns. Council, a 6-2 junior, averaged 13.7 ppg lastyear and led the BIG EAST with a 5.9 assist average. He also averaged 1.7 steals. Coleman, a 6-4 sophomore, averaged in double figures as a fresh-man, scoring 10.3 ppg. Both players have tremendous quickness and are extremely athletic. Forward/center BilalDixon,a6-9junior,hasbeenastarter since he arrived on campus, but Cooley will want him to improve on his 5.7 scoring and 6.4 rebounding marks. Dixon often was saddled by foul trouble last year which reduced his playing time. Forward Kadeem Batts, a 6-9 sophomore, averaged 7.1 points and 5.8 rebounds in his first season as a starter. Forward Ron Giplaye, who averaged 1.6 points and 1.6 boards, and guard Bryce Cot-

ton, who averaged 4.0 points, got their feet wet as freshmen. They will be counted on for more contributions this year.

Who’s Missing:Brooks averaged a league-leading 24.6 points which was second nation-ally, and did even better in league play, averaging 26.0 points which earned him the BIG EAST scoring crown. His 468 points in BIG EAST regular-season games was a confer-ence record. He also set the league single-game scoring record when he poured in 52 points against Notre Dame. Brooks also averaged 7.0 re-bounds. Reserve guard Duke Mondy, who averaged 7.7 points and a BIG EAST-leading 2.1 steals in all games as a top reserve, transferred. Reserve center Ray Hall (1.1, 2.1) graduated.

storylines:Cooley will be trying to develop some chemistry with the numerous young faces. He also has five freshmen, in-cluding two redshirt rookies. In the backcourt, 5-7 Kiwi Gardner will push to get into the regular rotation. Closer to the basket, 6-9 Lee Goldsborough, 6-8 Brice Kofane and 6-6 LaDontae Henton will be looking to move in on the playing time of Dixon and Batts. Last year, PC was first in the BIG EAST in scoring offense (75.8), but 15th in scoring defense (75.3). Cooley will want that to change.

the Big Picture:In coach Mike Rice’s first season, the Scarlet Knights played spirited bas-ketball. A 15-17 record was the final result, but Rice has the Scarlet Knight faithful excited about the future. He has only two starters returning, but has brought in the highest rated re-cruiting class in school history. Rice does not have a scholarship senior on this year’s squad, yet he expects his club to keep the positive vibe go-ing and the wins to increase.

Who’s Back: Six-eight Gilvydas Biruta is one of the returning starters. The forward made the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team after averaging 9.6 points and 5.6 re-bounds. The native of Lithuania shot 52.9 percent from the floor. Biruta was first among BIG EAST freshmen in rebounding, field goal shooting (.529) and free throw shooting (.723). The other starter back is Dane Miller, who was a BIG EAST All-Rookie pick two seasons ago. Last year, the 6-6 wing averaged 9.2 points and 6.1 re-bounds. He is also a quality defender. Sophomore guard Mike Poole is the third leading returning scorer after averaging 5.6 points while playing 19 minutes per game as a rookie. Other reserves who averaged dou-ble figures in minutes played were forward Austin Johnson (16.3) and

guard Austin Carroll (10.6). Johnson averaged 4.5 points while Carroll showed promise as a strong perime-ter shooter and averaged 2.7 points.

Who’s Missing:Three starters were lost, including the starting backcourt of James Be-atty and James Coburn. Both players averaged 8.8 ppg and played a little more than 32 minutes per game. Forward Jonathan Mitchell enjoyed a very good senior season, averag-ing 14.4 points and 5.6 rebounds. He was the only Scarlet Knight to aver-age double figures in scoring.

storylines:A seven-man recruiting class will have opportunities to help the cause right away. The competition for the start-ing point guard position could be a battle between two freshmen, Myles Mack and Jerome Seagears. Another freshman backcourt candidate is Eli Carter who is considered a combo guard. Six-five Malick Kone may push Miller at small forward. Six-nine Kadeem Jack joined the program last January, but sat out the semester. He is expected to be a prime candidate to start up front with Biruta. Six-eight Derrick Randall and 6-9 Greg Lewis are other frontcourt candidates. With no scholarship seniors and only two scholarship juniors, RU knows it will be young, but Rice believes the fu-ture is bright.

MARCH3 at RUTGERS 8:00

the Big Picture:The first year of the Steve Lavin Era was a smashing success. The Red Storm finished 21-12, the most wins since 2002-03, with six victories over ranked teams, including four against foes in the top 10. Lavin took the program from a 6-12 BIG EAST mark two seasons ago to 12-6 last year. St. John’s finished 18th in the final As-sociated Press poll, marking the first time it qualified for the postseason as a ranked team since 2000-01. For the upcoming campaign, however, Lavin will have virtually a completely new squad with only one returning scholarship player.

Who’s Back:Last year’s roster included 10 seniors. With one other player transferring, only junior point guard Malik Stith is back as a scholarship player. He aver-aged 3.3 ppg while playing an aver-age of 12.2 minutes.

Who’s Missing:The Red Storm lost 10 seniors and freshman forward Dwayne Polee who transferred. Guard Dwight Hardy was an All-BIG EAST First Team pick and the BIG EAST Most Improved Player. He averaged 18.3 ppg, which was fourth in the conference. Forward Jus-tin Burrell was named BIG EAST Sixth Man of the Year. He averaged 6.3 points and 4.9 rebounds. Swingman D.J. Kennedy, the team’s captain and leader, averaged 10.4 points and 5.6 boards. Forward Justin Brownlee en-

joyed a strong senior season, averag-ing 12.3 points. Guards Paris Horne (7.9) and Malik Boothe (4.1) joined Hardy to give the Red Storm a formi-dable and experienced backcourt.

storylines:The good news is that Lavin and his staff are bringing in one of the na-tion’s top recruiting classes. The bad news is that they will only have Stith to lean on for experience and a few of the incoming freshmen did not qualify to be eligible. Lavin prefers an up-tempo game that pressures op-ponents defensively, but realizes that the margin for error this season could be very thin because of the lack of depth. Six-three D’Angelo Harrison is a combo guard who may find an immediate home at the off-guard spot. Nurideen Lindsey, a sophomore junior college transfer, is a top candi-

date to contend for the point guard position along with freshman Phil Greene and holdover Stith. Six-eight Maurice Harkless may be a prime candidate at the small forward where Sir’Dominic Pointer also will contend. Six-nine God’s Gift Achiuwa is a first team junior college all-America hon-oree who can play at power forward or center. Junior guard Jamal White, a transfer from LIU, also is available.

the Big Picture:Coach Kevin Willard’s first Seton Hall team finished 13-18 overall and 7-11 in the BIG EAST. Twelve losses came by nine points or less. The Pirates were hampered when leading scorer Jeremy Hazell missed 13 games in the middle of the season. Willard is bringing in six freshmen this season as he continues to put his stamp on the program.

Who’s Back:Point guard Jordan Theodore returns to run the attack. A 6-0 senior, he averaged 11.0 points and 4.4 assists last season. Forward Herb Pope re-covered from serious health issues in the off-season to average 9.8 points and 7.9 rebounds. His rebound aver-age was third in the BIG EAST. Six-six Fuquan Edwin was impressive as a freshman, averaging 7.9 points and 3.3 rebounds at small forward and shooting guard. Six-nine Patrik Auda also contributed as a freshman, playing 15.3 minutes per game and averaging 3.2 points and 2.5 boards. Another sophomore, 6-11 Aaron Geramipoor, saw limited duty at cen-ter.

Who’s Missing:Jeremy Hazell was one of the BIG EAST’s top all-time shooters. He fin-ished his career with a conference record 201 3-point baskets in league regular-season play. He also was first in steals in league play last season with a 2.4 average. Overall, he aver-aged 19.8 ppg. Despite missing so many games, he still made the All-BIG EAST Third Team. Dependable forward Jeff Robinson averaged 12.1 points and 6.4 rebounds. Reserve guard Eniel Polynice averaged 3.8 points while making seven starts.

storylines:Theodore, Pope and Edwin are three solid pieces to form the nucleus of Willard’s second Pirate squad, but a group of six freshmen needs to offer some immediate help. Guard Aaron Cosby may be the most likely back-court candidate to see extensive play-ing time. Sean Grennan and Freddie Wilson are other guard hopefuls. Six-five Haralds Karlis joins the program from the Canarias Basketball Acade-my, the same team in Spain as Auda and Geramipoor attended. He is con-sidered a strong perimeter player. Kevin Johnson and Brandon Mobley, who are both 6-9, will help Pope in the frontcourt. Johnson is considered more of a true center. Mobley can also step away from the basket.

the Big Picture:Last season, the Bulls were usually hanging in there, but a young squad had trouble finishing the job and get-ting into the win column in confer-ence play. USF finished 10-23 overall and 3-15 in the BIG EAST. This year, coach Stan Heath welcomes back six of his top seven scorers and hopes that more experience, combined with the contributions of a couple of newcomers, can move USF up in the standings in 2011-12.

Who’s Back:Forward Augustus Gilchrist returns for his senior season. If he can stay healthy, he can contend for all-league honors. Last year, the athletic 6-10 forward averaged a team-leading 13.4 points and 6.1 rebounds, even though he was slowed by injuries mid-season. Sophomore Jawanza Poland showed some flashes that he can excel in the BIG EAST. The 6-4 guard was second in scoring with a 9.1 average while making 22 starts. Junior Hugh Robertson started ev-ery game. He averaged 8.3 points and 4.3 boards and played strong defense whether it was at forward or guard. Six-four Shaun Noriega showed some promise as a 3-point threat, averaging 6.4 points while playing 16.5 minutes per game. Ron Anderson, Jr., a transfer from Kansas State, averaged 7.0 points and 6.4 rebounds while making 18

starts. Six-eight Toarlyn Fitzpatrick is another frontcourt returnee. The 6-8 sophomore can play either forward position. Last season, he averaged 4.3 points and 4.1 rebounds.

Who’s Missing:Forward Jarrid Famous was a de-pendable frontcourt player who av-eraged 8.7 points and 5.4 rebounds. He shot 51.1 percent from the floor. Point guard Anthony Crater averaged 4.0 points and 4.6 assists, which was seventh in the BIG EAST. Guards Mike Burwell (1.9) and Shedrick Haynes (1.0) transferred.

storylines:Heath is looking for someone to run the offense and junior college trans-fer Blake Nash, who has three years of eligibility remaining, will get a long look to be the starter. The Bulls also need more offensive punch and hope that Victor Rudd, a transfer from Arizona State, can contribute immediately at the small forward. Rudd is a strong perimeter shooter who can also take the ball to the bas-ket. Freshmen LaVonte Dority and Anthony Collins are freshmen guard hopefuls. Last year’s squad averaged only 61.7 ppg and shot just 41.7 per-cent from the floor and 29.9 percent from 3-point range.

the Big Picture:The Orange compiled a 27-8 record last season which included a 12-6 BIG EAST mark. SU finished No. 12 in the final Associated Press poll. Those accomplishments simply add to the mountain of success in the Jim Boeheim era which has stretched 35 years. Boeheim has won 856 games, which ranks second among active coaches. He is 10th in winning percentage (.740). Syracuse has 31 20-win seasons, the most in college basketball history under one coach. For 2011-12, SU will have to find a replacement for forward Rick Jack-son who was the BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year, but the pieces are in place for another stellar year.

Who’s Back:Senior Kris Joseph is another athletic wing player in a program that always seems to have a standout at that po-sition. Last season, Joseph led the Orange in scoring with a 14.3 aver-age. He also averaged 5.2 rebounds and was named All-BIG EAST Third Team. The backcourt of senior Scoop Jardine and junior Brandon Triche re-turn after neither missed a start last season. Jardine averaged 12.5 points and led the BIG EAST in assists with a 6.1 average in league games. Triche averaged 11.1 points. Center Fab Melo started 24 games and averaged 6.4 points and 3.8 rebounds. Sopho-more Baye Moussa Keita, an athletic 6-9 sophomore, started 10 games at forward and averaged 2.2 points and 3.7 boards. Sophomore C.J. Fair av-eraged 6.4 points and 3.8 rebounds in a promising freshman season. Ju-

nior James Southerland was another frontcourt contributor, averaging 4.9 points and 2.3 boards. Dion Waiters helped in the backcourt with a 6.6 scoring mark.

Who’s Missing:Jackson averaged 13.1 points and a league-leading 10.3 rebounds. He also led the conference in field goal percentage, connecting at a 58.8 clip. Jackson was first in the BIG EAST in blocked shots with a 2.5 average. He was the first BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year from Syracuse since Etan Thomas in 1999-00.

storylines:The Orange appear to be very tal-ented and very experienced, though Jackson will leave a void close the basket. After a slow start last year, Melo showed promise in the low post. Six-nine freshman Rakeem Christmas may have the best chance among the freshman to see some immedi-ate playing time. The other newcom-ers are shooting guard candidates, 6-5 Michael Carter-Williams and 6-4 Trevor Cooney. Last season, SU lead the BIG EAST in field goal shooting in league play, making 47.1 percent. With Joseph, Jardine and Triche, the Orange should be more than capable of handling the BIG EAST wars again.

the Big Picture:Yes, the Wildcats turned in another 20-win season last year and made a seventh straight NCAA appearance, but their season ended on a six-game losing streak. If a team can feel like it has something to prove after a 21-12 year, Villanova may be that team. There are no seniors on this year’s roster and coach Jay Wright will lean on a group of four juniors to help soften the loss of seniors Corey Fish-er, Corey Stokes and Antonio Pena – all 1,000-point scorers. In 2007-08, the Wildcats also had no seniors and that season ended with 22 victories and advancement to the NCAA Sweet 16 round.

Who’s Back:Six-two Maalik Wayns is one of the four juniors who figure to form the nucleus of the 2011-12 squad. The lightning-quick Wayns is the team’s top returning scorer with a 13.8 av-erage. He also averaged 4.5 assists. Mouphtaou Yarou is the other return-ing starter. The center averaged 8.4 points and tied for the team lead in rebounding with a 7.1 mark. Six-six swingman Dominic Cheek played 19.4 minutes per game as a top re-serve. He averaged 5.6 points and 3.4 boards. Center Maurice Sutton played 10.6 minutes per game and averaged 2.4 points and 2.3 boards. Sophomore guard James Bell may be slotted for a big increase in playing time. He averaged only 2.4 points after being slowed by stress frac-tures in both legs in the preseason. This summer, he played on the USA Basketball U19 Team that competed in the World Championships. Jay-Vaughn Pinkston is back, though he did not play last season because of a violation of the university’s student

code. The 6-7 forward came to Vil-lanova as a McDonald’s All-American and figures to make a strong bid for a starting position.

Who’s Missing: Corey Fisher and Corey Stokes were the club’s top two scorers with 15.6 and 14.9 averages, respectively. Fisher also was tops in assists with a 4.8 average. Stokes was a prime 3-point shooting threat and made 89.4 percent of his free throws. An-tonio Pena averaged 9.8 points and 7.1 rebounds as an anchor in the frontcourt. Forward Isaiah Armwood was an athletic forward who aver-aged 2.5 points and 3.6 rebounds while playing 17 minutes per game. He transferred.

storylines:The 2011-12 Villanova squad may be a little less productive offensively, but a little stronger on the defensive end than recent VU teams. Despite the loss of three starters, the Wildcats are still a talented group with a good nucleus of players who have been through the BIG EAST wars. Wayns may be ready to become an elite player in the league. Freshmen Ty-rone Johnson and Achraf Yacoubou will try to earn some immediate time at guard. Freshman Darrun Hilliard may contend with Cheek in the back-court and on the wing. The fourth newcomer is 6-9 Markus Kennedy who likely will back up Yarou and Armwood. Some immediate contri-butions from Pinkston would be wel-comed.

the Big Picture:The Mountaineers compiled a 21-12 record last year, which included an 11-7 BIG EAST mark and a win in the NCAA Championship against Clem-son before a loss to Kentucky. WVU is 101-42 in four seasons under coach Bob Huggins and 45-27 in BIG EAST regular-season competition. In 2010, the Mountaineers won the BIG EAST Championship and advanced to the Final Four. Huggins’ teams in Mor-gantown have been to the NCAAs all four years. Huggins had made 19 NCAA appearances, which ranks fifth among active coaches. In 2011-12, the Mountaineers can build around two returning starters and some valu-able reserves who are expected to accept larger roles.

Who’s Back:Forward Kevin Jones and point guard Darryl “Truck” Bryant, a pair of seniors and 1,000-point scorers, are the re-turning starters. The 6-8 Jones aver-aged 13.1 points and a team-leading 7.5 rebounds. Bryant, a three-year starter, posted an 11.3 scoring av-erage. Forward Dennis Kilicli also is back after starting 12 games a year ago. The 6-9, 270-pound Kilicli aver-aged 6.6 points and 4.0 rebounds. He is a skilled offensive player. Fresh-man Kevin Noreen saw action in sev-en games, but was granted a medical redshirt after an injury. The 6-10 for-ward is expected to offer more help this season.

Who’s Missing:Guard Casey Mitchell was the team’s leading scorer with a 13.6 average, though he only started 17 games. Forward John Flowers averaged 9.2 points and 6.2 boards and was second in the BIG EAST with a 2.2 blocked shots average. Guard Joe Mazzulla averaged 7.7 points and led the team with a 4.2 assist average, but his career will be remembered for his leadership, toughness and critical contributions in the biggest games. Reserve forward Cam Thoroughman (2.7, 3.9) was known for his physi-cal play. Forward Dalton Pepper (3.9) transferred.

storylines:Jones and Bryant are proven BIG EAST performers and Kilicli has plenty of experience. There is a need to have some new blood fill in at the other positions. A large newcomer class of seven should have ample opportunity to be noticed and make some imme-diate contributions. Freshman Keaton Miles and Aaron Brown could help right away with perimeter shooting. Freshman Jabarie Hinds may serve as a backup to Bryant at the point. Rebounding and defense have been staples of the success under Huggins. The newcomers who show they can help in those areas likely will be in good favor with the head coach.

BIG EAST Conference

John Marinatto became the third commissioner of the BIG EAST Conference on July 1, 2009. He was the unanimous choice of the conference’s chancellors and presidents, who announced his appointment in November 2008.Marinatto follows Michael Tranghese, who had served as BIG EAST Commissioner since 1990, and Dave Gavitt, who served from 1979-1990, as the overseer of the largest and most diverse Division I athletics conference in the country. Already established in the world of intercollegiate athletics and higher education, Marinatto has continued to further his involvement on the national landscape since his appointment as Commissioner. He currently serves on the NCAA Leadership Council, Collegiate Commissioners Association, CCA Women’s Basketball Task Force, NCAA Value Based Decision Making Task Force, Men’s and Women’s Basketball Officiating LLC Boards of Directors, College Football Officiating Board of Directors and the NACDA Executive Committee. He has also represented the BIG EAST on the prestigious NCAA Management Council and the NCAA Finance and Business Cabinet and will become chairman of the Collegiate Commissioners Association Football Bowl Subdivsion in 2012. Marinatto brings a deep-rooted familiarity with the BIG EAST into his role as Commissioner. He had served as the conference’s senior associate commissioner since 2002 and spent 14 years as Director of Athletics at Providence College. His wide and varied experience on conference and national committees adds to his expertise. As the league’s senior associate commissioner, Marinatto had been the league’s Chief Operating Officer. He oversaw all administrative operations including NCAA governance, compliance communications, television and championships. Marinatto also served as the conference’s treasurer. Marinatto played a critical role in the creation and development of the strategic plan to reconfigure the BIG EAST into its current 16-member consortium. He has served on committees which have negotiated lucrative contracts with television partners CBS Sports and ESPN, Inc. in football and basketball and with marketing partner IMG. During the BIG EAST’s term as the lead administrator of the BCS in 2002-04, Marinatto served as the group’s Chief Financial and Business Officer. He also recently served on the BCS Fiesta Bowl Task Force and is currently a member of the BCS television committee. Marinatto’s connection to the founders of the BIG EAST dates to his undergradu-ate days at Providence College, when he served as a manager for a Friar basketball program that was coached by Gavitt and had Tranghese as its sports information director. After graduating from Providence in 1979 with a degree in business manage-ment, he served his alma mater as Associate Director of Alumni/Development. He also served as Director of Sports Promotions and Director of Sports Information before moving into the athletic director’s chair in 1987, shortly after the men’s bas-ketball team competed in the NCAA Final Four. During his tenure as athletic director, Marinatto served as the BIG EAST Athletic Directors’ Executive Committee Chairman for four years, was the chair of the BIG EAST Finance Committee and the chair of the Conference Strategic Planning Committee. He also served on the BIG EAST Championships and Competition Committee. Marinatto has also served as Tournament Director to numerous NCAA champion-ship events including the 1996 Men’s Basketball First and Second Rounds, the 2000 Men’s Frozen Four and the 2003 Women’s Basketball East Regional. Friar sports teams enjoyed significant success during Marinatto’s tenure of leadership, including the women’s cross country team, which won the NCAA Championship in 1995. Marinatto will continue to create the best possible climate for BIG EAST student-athletes to succeed academically and athletically through sportsmanship and ethical conduct while maintaining the tradition, identity and character conference laid forth by his predecessors.
