Has anybody seen what Villanova has to go through in the big east? Villanova road won't be as easy. The big east which had the second strongest RPI is going to be better next year. Look at the road
1) Xavier - Trevon bluiett is almost certain to come back. Which makes Villanova toughest competitor a staple for next year.
2) Seton Hall - People actually forget that Seton Hall won the big east tournament this year. That whole team is predict to come back.
3) Marquette - Probably has the best overall player in the big east next year with Brandon Bailey. I like him with Markus Howard ( straight savage at point).
4) ST. John's - We have the number 1 overall recruiting team in the Big East ( First time since 2002). Shamorie ponds, Marcus Lovett off suspension, the five star recruit from Germany Richard Freudenberg, and Yawke became a beast at the end of the year 5 double doubles in the last six games. Now it's up to Mullin to see if he can coach this talent. Honeymoon is over now.
5) Butler- I think they have the most experienced team in the big east.
Villanova is going to have a brutal road ahead. Proud of them though.
