"@PregameEmpire Villanova has two titles and four Final Fours since [----] and plays in the Big East a power conference. Gonzaga doesn't schedule play or recruit like a mid-major. They are a bonafide national power and contender. Lazy journalism at its finest"

"@rockyroadzzzz @PregameEmpire Maybe. But I believe the big east schools will struggle to compete in the NIL and rev share era. They just dont have the money boosters and alumni base of the football schools. Their glory days are long gone imo"
