Mike Deane back to Marquette?
I'm kidding of course.
The coaching carousel is already heating up.
A source close to the situation told Paint Touches that Williams was growing concerned with the future state of the Big East, that the conference had lost significant luster with the departures of schools such as Syracuse, Louisville and others, relegating it to essentially mid-major prominence.
Not good for one of the best coaches in the Big East to lose their coach to one of the worst jobs in the ACC. The Big East has to do something to get the conference to stay as a top non-BCS league. Like add Dayton and St. Louis hopefully! The A10 is winning the perception battle and the BE presidents and Fox won't stand for that.
