Haha I don’t dislike this take, got a good laugh out of the last sentence .... but come tourney time I’ll always root hard for BE teams (subject to our situation of course). Entitled GTown and UConn fans are tough.....GTown has been basically irrelevant since Iverson, which is crazy when you think about it.

All world poster, impressive. I won a dodgeball tournament in second grade.
I’m not the one with the fetish. Like Rutgers, traffic patterns, Hurley, and other topics this one has been fetishized in the form of real estate in certain fan’s brains. But, I get it. Grass isn’t green, water isn’t wet, etc.
Nah hallsome is enjoying spirits this weekend...esherick was a mess but JTIII got them to a FF Jeff Green Hibbert Team they beat UNC at Izod...JTIII had good teams but bad ncaa losses...Gtown been as relevant as shu last 20 years
Not the same nationally. Locally in that region I think it approaches that level. It’s one of the best and real rivalries in college basketball. They hate each other.
It's an excellent college basketball rivalry too, no doubt, although I think it gets diminished a bit because the football rivalry between those two is so intense.
X and Cincy is pretty intense. They've had a few real dustups.
Seton Hall-SJU could be more like that if both were NYC schools.
Agreed. When Cronin and Mack were there and both teams were good the dislike was pretty obvious. And there were a few press conferences were they took shots at each other. The Yancy Gates game and I think there was a separate game involving an incident with Lyons.
If Rutgers was in the Big East still perhaps our matchups with them could get to that level. With them being in a different league it diminishes things although I'm in a minority there as I know many of this board view the Rutgers rivalry as an intense one. If both us and SJU were NYC schools you might have that juice too, but of course we might as well be in Belmar when it comes to the NYC fan and market.

It was a little facetious. I want 4 top 25 caliber teams in the BE and as long as SHU is one of them, I’m indifferent to the others.
Nova is important because of JW and recent NCs. UConn is important because massive fan base, big school, NCs and the 4th school can be anyone. I have zero affinity or interest for SJU to be on par with SHU and don’t think it’s a necessity for BE success if we have 4 Top 25 teams and a Top 3 conference.
Top two threads on this board ; first a pissing contest about Reynolds and a PG in another team. Classic ....
Yes - you also had Mick Cronin at a press conference after one of the games saying that JP Macura was cursing at him during the course of the game and that in his entire career that’s never happened to him. Then Mack defended JP and that Cronin was somehow in the wrong. Crazy stuff.
Okay, I’ll give it a crack... P.O.S.H.
