The 2010-11 academic year will be the 32nd in the history of The BIG EAST Conference as the unique consortium marches on competing at the highest level with integrity and sportsmanship.The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth, but the 2010-11 year will mark the conference’s sixth straight with the same 16-member group, 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 2009-10 year was no different.Seven BIG EAST student-athletes were named NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners. Maya Moore, Connecticut’s women’s basketball standout, won the NCAA Honda-Broderick Award as the nation’s top female student-athlete. She also was named the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American of the Year for women’s basket-ball. Moore was the fifth BIG EAST women’s student-athlete to win the Honda-Broderick Award. In the athletic arena, BIG EAST student-athletes again enjoyed success on the national stage. The Connecticut women’s basketball team won its second straight national championship and its seventh overall crown. The Villanova women’s cross country team also won the NCAA title. The Notre Dame women’s soccer team reached the NCAA College Cup for the second straight year. The Syracuse wom-en’s lacrosse squad reached the Final Four. On the men’s side, West Virginia’s basketball team became the BIG EAST’s 16th team to reach the NCAA Final Four and won the conference’s academic achievement award. The Notre Dame men’s lacrosse team advanced to the NCAA championship game.Individually, three BIG EAST student-athletes won NCAA titles. Cincinnati’s Josh Schneider won the 50 freestyle in men’s swim-ming. In track, Louisville’s D’Ana McCarty repeated as the NCAA indoor winner in the weight throw. Louisville’s Matt Hughes won the 3,000 steeplechase. Another Cardinal, Austen Childs, was the national runner-up in men’s tennis singles. BIG EAST football maintained its national profile as a competi-tively balanced group. Cincinnati won its second straight league championship in 2009 and compiled an undefeated regular season. The Bearcats finished third in the final Bowl Championship Series

standings. Six of the league’s eight squads went to bowl games and helped the BIG EAST post a 4-2 bowl record. Rutgers, one of the bowl winners, also was recognized for having the nation’s highest NCAA APR rating, which measures academic success. The BIG EAST has continued to produce student-athletes who are at the forefront of athletic and academic achievement. In 2009-10, 22 BIG EAST players from 10 schools were chosen to their respective ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America Teams. Over 400 student-athletes have earned academic all-America hon-ors. The BIG EAST became the nation’s largest Division I-A confer-ence in 2005-06 when five new members began competing. The new schools were: University of Cincinnati, DePaul University, 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 28 national championships in six different sports and 128 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 three of the last 12 NCAA championships. BIG EAST women’s teams have taken seven of the last 11 NCAA titles.Proactive movement has been a signature strategy for the confer-ence that was born in 1979. The BIG EAST continually turns chal-lenges into opportunities to become stronger. In 2009-10, the BIG EAST added men’s lacrosse to its growing list of sports, which increased its total to 24 sport championships. 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 seven school alliance.

While the membership has both increased and changed, the focus of the BIG EAST has not wavered. The conference reflects a tradition of broad based programs, led by administrators and coach-es who place a constant emphasis on academic integrity. Its student athletes own significantly high graduation rates and their record of scholastic achievement notably show a balance between intercolle-giate 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. In 2009-10, the BIG EAST had one significant change. Tranghese stepped down from his position on June 30, 2009. John Marinatto, who had served as senior associate commissioner, moved into the Commissioner’s chair and continued to steer the conference on its path of success.

The league has long been considered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regarding televi-sion. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for BIG EAST student athletes. The conference has enjoyed long-standing relationships with CBS, ESPN, Inc. and ABC.BIG EAST men’s basketball games are regular sellouts at campus 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 seven years. Attendance figures also are significant in soccer and baseball. More than 575 BIG EAST student-athletes have earned all America recognition and dozens have won individual NCAA nation-al championships. The BIG EAST has been well represented in U.S. or foreign national and Olympic teams. Several athletes earned gold medals. The BIG EAST has its headquarters in Providence where the con-ference administers to more than 5,500 student-athletes.

NBA DRAFT TAKES ELEVEN FROM BIG EASTEleven BIG EAST players were selected in the 2010 NBA Draft, matching the conference’s best showing since the draft went to a two-round format in 1988. Syracuse forward Wes Johnson, the BIG EAST Player of the Year, went fourth to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Georgetown center Greg Monroe was next, claimed by the Detroit Pistons with the seventh pick. Two more BIG EAST standouts went in the first round. USF’s Dominique Jones was the 25th pick, going to the Memphis Grizzlies who subsequently traded him to the Dallas Mavericks. With the 30th pick, the Washington Wizards tabbed Marquette’s Lazar Hayward and dealt him to Minnesota.

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.

NATIONAL SEMIFINALS STILL SPECIAL FOR BIG EASTThe BIG EAST has an 8-4 record in the Final Four semifinals against non-con-ference opposition. Syracuse has the best semifinal record with a 3-0 mark.

Freeman Selected BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year Georgetown guard Austin Freeman has been named 2010-11 BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year by a vote of the league’s head coaches. It is the sixth time in league history that a Georgetown standout has captured BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year honors. Syracuse freshman Fab Melo was chosen BIG EAST Preseason Rookie of the Year. Coaches were not permitted to vote for their own players. Freeman, a 6-3½ three-year starter for the Hoyas, was an All-BIG EAST Second Team pick last season while helping the team compile a 23-11 overall record and a 10-8 league mark. The Hoyas also advanced to the title game of The BIG EAST Championship and earned a bid to the NCAA Championship. Freeman averaged 16.5 ppg and led all BIG EAST guards in field goal percentage, connecting on 52.5 percent of his attempts last year. He was fourth in the league in free throw shooting, making 85.6 percent. In conference games, he was even more effective, averaging 19.5 points and leading the league in 3-point shooting, making 51.9 percent. The other Hoyas to earn BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year honors were Roy Hibbert (2007-08), Alonzo Mourning (1991-92) and three-time honoree Patrick Ewing (1982-83, ’83-84 and ’84-85). Melo is a 7-0, 265-pound forward-center from Juiz de Forz, Brazil. In 2009-10, he played at Sagemont H.S. in Sagemont, Fla., where he earned McDonald’s All-American and Parade All-American honors. In addition to Freeman, the Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team includes two members from last year’s All-BIG EAST Second Team and two from the All-BIG EAST Third Team. All five hail from the New York Metropolitan area, including three from the Bronx, N.Y. Pittsburgh’s Ashton Gibbs, a guard from Scotch Plains, N.J., was the BIG EAST Most Improved Player last season and a second-team all-conference selection. The 6-2 junior led the Panthers in scoring with a 15.7 average and was first in the BIG EAST in free throw shooting, making 88.4 percent. In league games, his 3-point shooting mark of 44.4 percent ranked third in the conference. Seton Hall’s Jeremy Hazell is the other second-team pick that is a preseason first team selection in 2010-11. The 6-5 senior is one of the three Bronx natives. Last season, Hazell finished third in the BIG EAST in scoring with a 20.4 average. In league games, he fin-ished second in the conference scoring race, averaging 21.7 ppg. Going into the 2010-11 campaign, Hazell is the league’s active leader in points (1,058), 3-pointers made (169) and steals (93) in BIG EAST play. Connecticut’s Kemba Walker and Villanova’s Corey Fisher made the All-BIG EAST Third Team last season. Walker, a 6-1 junior guard, averaged 14.6 ppg last year. He led the league in steals with a 2.1 average and was second in assists with a 5.1 mark. Fisher averaged 13.3 ppg and a team-leading 3.9 assists. Walker and Fisher both finished second on their respective teams in scor-ing. Both call the Bronx, N.Y., home. West Virginia’s Kevin Jones helped spark the Mountaineers’ run to the NCAA Final Four last year and the school’s first BIG EAST Championship crown. A 6-8 junior forward from Mount Vernon, N.Y., Jones averaged 13.5 points and 7.2 rebounds. WVU finished the season with a 31-7 record. The Preseason All-BIG EAST Second Team includes three seniors and two juniors. The seniors are Georgetown guard Chris Wright, Notre Dame forward Tim Abromaitis and St. John’s guard-forward D.J. Kennedy. The juniors are Marquette forward Jimmy Butler and Syracuse forward Kris Joseph, who was the BIG EAST Sixth Man of the Year last season. Abromaitis and Butler earned BIG EAST Honorable Mention recognition. The 2010-11 Preseason All-BIG EAST Honorable Mention group includes Cincinnati forward Yancy Gates, Marquette guard Darius Johnson-Odom and Syracuse forward Rick Jackson.

2010-11 Preseason Predictions


Previewing The 2010-11 Season

Pittsburgh Chosen As BIG EAST Favorite Pittsburgh is the choice to win the 2010-11 BIG EAST regular-season crown in the BIG EAST Preseason Coaches’ Poll. The Panthers, who finished 25-9 overall and tied for second place in the conference at 13-5 last season, collected 12 first-place votes from the head coaches who did not place their own teams on their ballots. The Panthers return four starters from last year’s squad, including Preseason All-BIG EAST selection Ashton Gibbs. Coach Jamie Dixon’s club sits atop the preseason poll for the first time since 2006-07. Pitt is the only team in the conference to win at least 10 BIG EAST contests in each of the last nine seasons. Villanova follows Pitt in the poll in second place. The Wildcats had 208 points which included one first-place vote. Villanova tied the Panthers for second place in BIG EAST play last year with a 13-5 record and is coming off a 25-8 season. This year, the Wildcats are expected to depend on senior guard Corey Fisher, a Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team member, for production and leadership. Syracuse, last year’s regular-season league champion, was picked third. The Orange corralled a pair of first-place votes and a total of 187 points in the poll. In 2009-10, SU compiled a 15-3 BIG EAST mark after being picked sixth in the preseason poll. Coach Jim Boeheim directed Syracuse to a 30-5 overall record. The coaches placed Georgetown fourth. The Hoyas, who can lean on Preseason BIG EAST Player of the Year Austin Freeman and three other returning starters, totaled 173 points in the poll. Georgetown finished 23-11 last year. West Virginia was slotted for fifth place. The Mountaineers won their first BIG EAST Championship last March and advanced to the NCAA Final Four. WVU’s final record was 31-7 over-all, including 13-5 in conference play. This season, the Mountaineers can build around junior forward Kevin Jones, a Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team selection. St. John’s received one first-place vote and finished sixth in the poll. The Red Storm have not been picked higher than ninth in the preseason poll since 2002-03. St, John’s has 10 seniors and a new coach, Steve Lavin. The league coaches feel the Red Storm are capable of making a big jump. St. John’s finished 6-12 in league play last year and 17-16 overall. Notre Dame was in seventh place with 123 points. The Fighting Irish were 23-12 last year and 10-8 in the league stand-ings. Louisville and Marquette tied for eighth place in the poll just behind the Irish with 121 points. The Cardinals and Golden Eagles also tied in the standings last year at 11-7. The coaches put Connecticut 10th and Seton Hall 11th. Both teams were NIT participants last season. The Huskies, who fin-ished 18-16, had 113 points, while the Pirates, who were 19-13, garnered 104 points. Cincinnati took 12th place in the poll with 91 points. Last year, the Bearcats tied Connecticut for 11th place in the stand-ings with a 7-11 BIG EAST mark. Cincinnati finished 19-16 over-all and made the NIT. The coaches have tabbed Providence for 14th place followed by Rutgers and DePaul.

2010-11 Preseason Coaches’ Poll

The semifinal round is Friday, March 11. The Saturday night championship game, a fixture on the New York sports calendar, begins at 9 p.m. ET. BIG EAST history says it is important to earn a bye into the quarterfinals. Syracuse and Pittsburgh are the only teams to have won BIG EAST tournament titles by earning four victories.

2011 BIG EAST Championship2011 BIG EAST Championship presented by American Eagle outfitters The 2011 BIG EAST Championship presented by American Eagle Outfitters will be played at Madison Square Garden in New York City March 8-12. It will be the 29th 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 third consecutive 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 tournament 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 saw West Virginia capture its first BIG EAST crown by win-ning three games by a combined seven points. The Mountaineers knocked off, in order, Cincinnati (54-51), Notre Dame (53-51) and Georgetown (60-58) on their way to the title. The final saw the Mountaineers start slowly, as Georgetown held West Virginia without a field goal for the first six minutes. But the Mountaineers took a 32-28 lead into halftime, never trailed in the second half and found themselves tied in the final minute. Forward Da’Sean Butler, who sank a buzzer-beater to put the Mountaineers past Cincinnati in the quarterfinals, made the winning layup with 4.2 seconds left against the Hoyas. Butler was presented with the Dave Gavitt Trophy as the tournament’s out-standing player. The all-tournament team consisted of West Virginia’s Kevin Jones, Georgetown’s Greg Monroe and Chris Wright, Notre Dame’s Tory Jackson and Marquette’s Lazar Hayward.

the Big Picture:Last season, the Bearcats finished 19-16, won two games in the BIG EAST Championship and played in two rounds of the NIT. It was UC’s first NIT bid since 2006. Coach Mick Cronin must find a way to re-place guards Lance Stephenson and Deonta Vaughn, the team’s top two scorers. While Cronin will be looking to find some answers offensively, he will have several available choices. Cronin can call on eight players who averaged at least 10 minutes per game last season.

Who’s Back: Junior Yancy Gates is the only return-ing double-figure scorer. The 6-9 for-ward averaged 10.4 ppg and a team-leading 5.9 rebounds. Six-eleven Ibrahima Thomas helped around the basket by averaging 5.8 points and 5.4 rebounds in his first season with the Bearcats after transferring from Oklahoma State. The senior started 22 games last year. Six-six senior Rashad Bishop made 20 starts and averaged 8.4 points and 4.4 boards. He is a likely candidate to step up of-fensively. Cashmere Wright was in the rotation at point guard last sea-son as a freshman. He averaged 5.4 points while making 11 starts and playing 18.5 minutes per game. Ju-nior Dion Dixon averaged 4.9 points while seeing 15.8 minutes of playing time. Six-three Jaquon Parker got his feet wet as a freshman, starting eight games and averaging 4.3 ppg. Six-seven Darnell Wilks (3.4) and 6-3

Larry Davis (3.2), a pair of seniors, are experienced hands who have been through the BIG EAST battles. Six-four swingman Sean Kilpatrick, who carries strong offensive credentials, figures to make a strong drive for a prominent role after being redshirted as a freshman. Anthony McClain, a senior center, returns for reserve duty.

Who’s Missing: Stephenson, who averaged 12.3 ppg, was the BIG EAST Rookie of the Year. Vaughn averaged 11.7 points and finished his career third on the school’s all-time list with 1,885 points. He also was third with 511 assists and 313 3-pointers. In BIG EAST regular-season play, he finished fourth on the all-time 3-pointer list with 172 made.

storylines: Cronin wants to continue the mo-mentum that he and his staff have established. The Bearcats are a known quantity on defense and on the boards. UC was second in the BIG EAST in rebound margin (+6.2). Although Stephenson and Vaughn have departed, the Bearcats are still an experienced club with five schol-arship seniors and two juniors on the roster. The search for more offensive punch may also include two fresh-men, 6-8 Justin Jackson and 6-10 Kelvin Gaines.

the Big Picture:After a Final Four run two seasons ago, UConn posted an 18-16 record and a 7-11 BIG EAST mark last year. The Huskies had four double-figure scorers, but there was a dropoff in production after that group. Two full-time starters return for coach Jim Cal-houn who will try to assemble cohe-sive combinations to put the Huskies back in their accustomed role of BIG EAST contenders.

Who’s Back: Guard Kemba Walker became one of the BIG EAST’s top guards last season. He averaged 14.6 points and was first in the league in steals (2.1) and second in assists (5.1). A 6-1 junior who led the team in minutes played (35.3), Walker garnered All-BIG EAST Third Team honors. The other full-time returning starter is sophomore center Alex Oriakhi. A BIG EAST All-Rookie Team pick, Oriakhi aver-aged 5.0 points and 6.6 rebounds. Six-eleven Ater Majok, who aver-aged 2.3 points and 3.0 rebounds, withdrew from school. Sophomore Jamal Coombs-McDaniel averaged 3.3 ppg last season as a reserve. The 6-7 wing is the Huskies’ other outside shooting threat with Walker and will push for starting duty. Senior guard Donnell Beverly (1.6) saw action in 32 games and has been a steady backup. Senior center Charles Ok-wandu (1.0, 1.6) served as a reserve to Oriakhi.

Who’s Missing: Guard Jerome Dyson was the team’s top scorer with a 17.2 average. He averaged 4.2 assists and joined Walker on the All-BIG EAST Third Team. Forward Stanley Robinson, an NBA draft pick, averaged 14.5 points and led the team with a 7.6 rebound-ing mark. Forward Gavin Edwards enjoyed a productive season in a sixth-man role. He averaged 10.6 points, grabbed rebounds at a 6.5 clip and finished second in the BIG EAST in field goal shooting, making 59.2 percent.

storylines: Despite “only” finishing with an 18-16 record, the Huskies put up their cus-tomary strong defensive numbers. In league games, they allowed op-ponents to shoot only 40.4 percent, best in the BIG EAST. UConn has led the league in field goal defense in seven of the past nine seasons. The Huskies, as usual, were first in blocked shots with a 6.7 mark in league play and were second nation-ally at 7.7. Calhoun would welcome some stronger shooting from the perimeter. Freshman Jeremy Lamb may be able to help on the wing or in the backcourt. Guard Shabazz Napier has a good chance to offer some im-mediate help. The other freshmen are frontcourt hopefuls: 6-10 Michael Bradley, 6-8 Roscoe Smith and 6-9 Tyler Olander.

the Big Picture:The Blue Demons are off to a fresh start with new coach Oliver Purnell, who comes from Clemson with 22 years of head coaching experience. Purnell’s last three Clemson teams made the NCAA Championship. Only 21 teams nationally, including five from the BIG EAST, have played in the last three NCAA tourneys. At DePaul, Purnell will be rebuilding a program that has tasted only two BIG EAST victories in the past two sea-sons. His first Blue Demon squad will include four players who started at least 17 games last season, but lost its two top scorers, center Mac Ko-shwal and guard Will Walker.

Who’s Back: Senior swingman Mike Stovall, who showed flashes of explosive scor-ing ability, averaged 7.0 ppg while making 20 starts last season. He is the top returning scorer. Six-seven forward Eric Wallace averaged 6.3 points and 4.9 rebounds while mak-ing 19 starts in his first season at DeP-aul after transferring from Ohio State. He missed the final seven games of the season with a shin injury. Junior guard Jeremiah Kelly started 27 times and recorded a 5.6 scoring mark. He also led the team with 84 assists. Six-nine junior forward Devin Hill av-eraged 4.8 points and 2.9 rebounds and was an effective shot blocker. He was helped around the basket by center Krys Faber. A 6-10 junior who gained playing time when Ko-shwal was down with injuries, Faber

averaged 2.4 points and 3.0 boards. Other candidates in the frontcourt include 6-8 senior Mario Stula (2.3, 1.1) who played in 27 games. Six-seven sophomore forward Tony Free-land (3.4, 2.5) will be battling for a larger role in 2010-11. Junior guard Michael Bizoukas averaged 3.7 ppg and made seven starts.

Who’s Missing: Koshwal, who left the program a year early, averaged 16.1 points and a team-leading 10.1 rebounds. He was limited to 19 games because of foot injuries, so he did not qualify in the league statistics, but his rebound average would have been third in the BIG EAST. Koshwal posted 11 dou-ble-doubles in his 19 contests. The dependable Walker averaged 16.2 ppg and made 71 3-pointers. He

finished his career with 195 baskets from beyond the arc, which placed him second on the school’s all-time list. Walker led the BIG EAST in min-utes played, averaging 38.1 minutes per game.

storylines: Purnell will be searching for some of the returnees to step up offensively, especially with the departure of Ko-shwal and Walker. There should be plenty of opportunity for the three newcomers to make their marks as freshmen. They are: 6-5 forward Moses Morgan, 6-3 guard Brandon Young and 6-8 forward Cleveland Martin.

the Big Picture:In 2009-10, the Hoyas produced what is becoming a typical season under coach John Thompson III. Georgetown finished 23-11 overall and earned another NCAA invita-tion, its fourth in the last six years. They were 10-8 in league play and advanced to the BIG EAST Champi-onship final for the third time in the past four years. Thompson, who is entering his seventh season as the Hoya headmaster, welcomes back four starters, though the lone loss is a significant one, center Greg Monroe.

Who’s Back: The Hoyas may have one of the strongest three-guard lineups in the nation. Austin Freeman made All-BIG EAST Second Team after averag-ing 16.5 ppg. In league games, he was first in the BIG EAST in 3-point shooting, making 51.9 percent. In all games, he ranked fourth in the league in free throw shooting, hit-ting at an 85.6 percent clip. Chris Wright directs the offense from his point guard spot. Last season. he averaged 15.2 points and 4.1 assists. Both Freeman and Wright are seniors. Junior Jason Clark completes the guard trio. Last year, he averaged 10.5 ppg and shot 42.4 percent from beyond the arc. Sophomore guard Vee Sanford returns in a reserve role. In the frontcourt, 6-9 senior forward Julian Vaughn is a returning starter who averaged 7.4 points and

4.4 rebounds. He also blocked 49 shots. Hollis Thompson, a versatile 6-7 sophomore forward, averaged 4.8 points and 2.4 boards after play-ing 19.5 minutes per game. Six-ten junior Henry Sims (1.4, 2.0) and 6-7 sophomore Jerrell Benimon (1.4, 2.0) will push to be noticed after serving in reserve roles last year.

Who’s Missing: Center Greg Monroe was an All-BIG EAST First Team selection after post-ing a 16.1 scoring average. He was third in the BIG EAST in rebound-ing with a 9.6 mark. Monroe, who played two seasons with the Hoyas, was an NBA first-round draft pick.

storylines: Monroe had unique ballhandling skills for a center and will be very difficult to replace, but the Hoyas can build around an outstanding backcourt. Last season in BIG EAST games, GU led the league in field goal shooting (49.9 percent) and 3-point shooting (40.0 percent). Hollis Thompson could move into a starting position at forward. The Hoyas would benefit from continued development of Sims and Berrimon around the basket. Georgetown has four newcomers: forwards Aaron Bo-wen and Nat Lubick, center Moses Ayegba and guard Markel Starks. This season, there may be more im-mediate opportunities to play in the frontcourt than at guard.

the Big Picture:Last season, the Cardinals posted their eighth straight 20-win season when they finished 20-13 overall and 11-7 in the BIG EAST. Coach Rick Pitino has to deal with the challenge of re-placing four starters, including his top three scorers from last year. His top returning scorer is junior forward Jar-ed Swopshire who averaged only 7.5 points and 6.1 rebounds per game. But history shows that it might be a mistake to predict a big dropoff for the Cardinals. In their five seasons as a member of the BIG EAST, Lou-isville owns a 59-27 regular-season record in league play, second only to Pittsburgh’s 60-26 mark. This year, Pitino welcomes six newcomers and plans to speed up the tempo a little with his young squad.

Who’s Back: Swopshire made 20 starts last sea-son and assumed a more prominent role as the year progressed. Guard Preston Knowles figures to take one of the starting guard spots. He av-eraged 7.2 points, but is known as much for his defensive prow-ess. Knowles started eight games last season. Forward Terrence Jen-nings is another player who seems ready to take on a bigger role. The 6-9 junior started 10 of the final 14 games of the season. For the year, he averaged 5.1 points and 3.4 re-bounds. Peyton Siva was the backup point guard last year and averaged 3.9 ppg while averaging 11.3 min-utes. Forward Rakeem Buckles saw about the same amount of playing time as Siva and averaged 3.8 points and 3.4 rebounds. In the Cardinals’ NCAA game against California, Buck-les scored a career-high 20 points on 10-of-11 shooting and grabbed nine

rebounds. Junior Kyle Kuric (4.0) and sophomore Mike Marra (3.1) have shown flashes of 3-point shooting excellence. Junior forward George Goode and sophomore Stephan Van Treese saw limited duty last year in the frontcourt.

Who’s Missing: Center Samardo Samuels declared for the NBA after only two seasons with Louisville. Last year, he was tops on the Cardinal squad with averages of 15.3 points and 7.0 rebounds. The three starting guards have departed. Edgar Sosa was second in scoring at 13.1 ppg and first in assists at 4.6. Jerry Smith averaged 8.3 ppg while Reginald Delk’s scoring mark was 6.4.

storylines: The Cardinals have some holes to fill, but appear to have candidates ready to emerge as quality BIG EAST per-formers. Pitino has said he wants to play at a faster pace this season on both ends of the floor and have the defense create scoring opportunities. In addition to choices from the group of returnees five newcomers will try to earn Pitino’s attention. They are: guards Elisha Justice, Chris Smith, Russ Smith (no relation), swingman Justin Coleman and redshirt Richie Phares.

the Big Picture:Marquette put together a 22-12 sea-son that ended with another NCAA appearance last March. Each of MU’s five seasons in the BIG EAST has been a 20-win campaign that included a trip to the NCAA Championship. Last year, the Golden Eagle program led by coach Buzz Williams returned to the NCAAs while working with only one returning starter. This year, Wil-liams has to find a way to replace La-zar Hayward, an NBA first-round draft choice, to maintain the 20-win and NCAA streaks.

Who’s Back: The nucleus for 2010-11 starts with senior Jimmy Butler who earned All-BIG EAST Honorable Mention recognition last season. The 6-7 forward averaged 14.7 points and 6.4 rebounds, which were second on the team in both categories. He

also shot 53 percent from the floor. Guard Darius Johnson-Odom aver-aged 13.0 ppg and was second in the BIG EAST in 3-point shooting, making 47.4 percent. Point guard Junior Ca-dougan showed some promise after recovering from a preseason knee injury. He saw action in 12 games, but may be poised for a much big-ger role in 2010-11. Senior guard Dwight Buycks may move into a full-time starter’s role after averag-ing 6.7 points last season and start-ing 11 games. Senior forward Joe Fulce averaged 3.5 points and 3.1 boards while averaging 11.7 minutes per game. Other frontcourt return-ees include sophomore center Chris Otule and sophomore forward Erik Williams.

Who’s Missing: Hayward was among the BIG EAST leaders in several categories last season, averaging 18.1 points (6th) and 7.5 rebounds (9th). He also con-nected at an 84.3 percent clip from the foul line (5th) and had a steal average of 1.9 (3rd). Guards Mau-rice Acker (8.7) and David Cubillan (6.8) were dependable veterans who helped Marquette lead the BIG EAST in 3-point shooting. MU made 41.3 percent from beyond the arc which was fourth best in the nation.

storylines: In league games last season, Mar-quette was first in the BIG EAST in scoring defense (65.6), free throw shooting (.760), 3-point defense (.304) and turnover margin (+4.39). Those numbers helped translate into an 11-7 BIG EAST mark, which includ-ed winning three straight games that

went into overtime – all on the road. Overall, the Golden Eagles played 17 games that were decided by five points or less or went into overtime, easily the highest total in the league. They were 8-9 in those games. New floor leaders need to emerge as the senior trio of Hayward, Acker and Cubillan will be missed. Newcomers should get some long looks to con-tribute immediately. The group in-cludes guards Vander Blue and Reg-gie Smith along with forwards Jamail Jones, Davante Gardner and junior college transfer Jae Crowder. Blue was a member of the USA Basketball U-18 Team.

the Big Picture:Last year, Notre Dame finished 23-12 overall, 10-8 in the BIG EAST and returned to the NCAAs after a one-year absence. It was ND’s fifth straight 20-win season. The Fight-ing Irish must deal with the loss of forward all-American Luke Harand-gody and point guard Tory Jackson, but coach Mike Brey’s club figures to be strong again with some proven BIG EAST performers and some key new additions. The Irish have made the postseason in each of Brey’s 10 seasons at the helm and that streak seems likely to continue in 2010-11.

Who’s Back: Senior Tim Abromaitis had a huge breakout season in 2009-10. The 6-8 forward averaged 16.1 ppg and was one of the league’s top shooters.

He was third in the BIG EAST in free throw shooting (87.3 percent) and fourth in 3-point shooting (42.9 per-cent. Abromaitis sat out the 2008-09 season. Guard Ben Hansbrough av-eraged 12.0 ppg in his first season with the Irish after transferring from Mississippi State. He shot 41.4 per-cent from beyond the arc. Forward Tyrone Nash became a starter last season and helped with a 7.8 scoring average and a 5.2 rebounding mark. Senior forward Carleton Scott (5.0, 4.6) was a valuable reserve last year. Three sophomores -- guard Joey Brooks and forwards Mike Brogham-mer and Jack Cooley -- will be look-ing for increased roles in 2010-11.

Who’s Missing: Harangody was one of the most pro-ductive players in the history of the BIG EAST. Last season, he was first in the league in scoring, averaging 21.8 ppg and finished fourth in rebounding at 9.1. In BIG EAST play, he finished third on the league’s all-time scoring list with 1,329 points and was sec-ond in rebounds with 662. Haran-gody might have broken the record if he was not injured late last season. He became only the third player in conference history to earn consensus all-America honors three times. Jack-son was the steely point guard that every successful team needs. Last season, he averaged 9.6 points and a league-leading 5.3 assists. Guard Jonathan Peoples, who started 10 games, averaged 3.4 ppg.

storylines: Scott Martin should have been listed in the returnee column but he missed last season with an ACL injury. The 6-8 transfer from Purdue can play ei-ther the small forward or big guard. Abromaitis and Hansbrough give Notre Dame a very solid scoring base. Freshman Eric Atkins may be-come the starter at point guard. Last year, the Irish, with the help of Jack-son’s ballhandling skills, were first in the BIG EAST with an assist/turnover ratio of 1.62. Even with the loss of Harangody, the Irish are deeper this season in the frontcourt in terms of the number of players. Guard hope-fuls Alex Dragicevich and Jerian Grant likely will be slated for backup roles this season.

the Big Picture:The Panthers went into last season with only one returning starter, but the success continued. Coach Jamie Dixon guided Pitt to its ninth straight NCAA berth with the Panthers finish-ing 25-9 overall and 13-5 in the BIG EAST. Seven of the top eight scor-ers are back, including four starters, so the level of excellence is likely to continue in 2010-11. The Panthers are the only team in the conference to amass at least 20 victories overall and 10 wins in the BIG EAST over the last nine seasons.

Who’s Back: Dixon welcomes back the starting backcourt of junior Ashton Gibbs and senior Brad Wanamaker. Gibbs, who was named BIG EAST Most Improved Player last year, averaged a team-leading 15.7 ppg. A two-time BIG EAST Academic All-Star, he also led the BIG EAST in free throw shooting, making 88.4 percent. Wanamaker averaged 12.3 points and led the team with a 4.7 assist mark, which ranked fourth in the BIG EAST. Soph-omore Travon Woodall should see his share of playing time again at point guard. He started 11 games last year and averaged 5.0 ppg. In the front-court, center Gary McGhee also was one of the league’s most improved players. He averaged 6.9 points and 6.8 rebounds after averaging less

than seven minutes of playing time two seasons ago. Junior forward Na-sir Robinson (6.6, 5.6) is a returning starter. Six-six senior Gilbert Brown scored 10.7 ppg despite not starting, though he did average 23.7 min-utes per game. Six-nine sophomore Dante Taylor (4.1, 3.7) showed some promise in his rookie season. Six-five Lamar Patterson and 6-9 Talib Zanna are redshirt freshmen.

Who’s Missing: The Panthers lost only one starter, guard Jermaine Dixon who averaged 10.6 ppg, but was even more valu-able as a lockdown defender.

storylines: The Panthers relied on a balanced scoring attack last season and that may continue this year. Pitt figures to sustain its outstanding reputation on defense. Last season the Panthers were first in the BIG EAST in scoring defense, allowing only 61.9 ppg. Four newcomers – guards Isaiah Epps and Cameron Wright and for-wards J.J.Moore and Aron Nwankwo -- may have a difficult time cracking the rotation as freshmen. Last year’s squad returned only one starter, but still won 25 games and tied for second place in the BIG EAST. With most of last season’s top performers back for 2010-11, it appears another standout season is ahead.

the Big Picture:Last year, coach Keno Davis had only three scholarship players. His-tory says the BIG EAST wars are often rough on young teams and, not sur-prisingly, the Friars struggled. They finished 12-19 overall and 4-14 in league play. The 2010-11 team has two seniors, no juniors and plenty of sophomores and freshmen. The promising work of some of last year’s freshmen gives Davis some reasons to be optimistic. With a strong in-coming freshmen class, PC is ready to move back up in the standings.

Who’s Back: Senior Marshon Brooks figures to be the Friars’ go-to guy. The 6-5 se-nior can play shooting guard or on the wing. Last season, he averaged 14.2 ppg and shot 35.1 percent from 3-point range. The point guard spot seems set with sophomore Vincent Council. A BIG EAST All-Rookie pick last season, the 6-2 Council averaged 10.3 ppg and a team-leading 4.6 as-sists. His 1.9 assist-to-turnover ratio was 11th in the BIG EAST. Sopho-more guard Duke Mondy came off the bench last season and averaged 3.4 ppg. Center Bilal Dixon was thrust into a starting role last season and performed admirably, averaging 8.2 points and 6.8 rebounds. Senior Ray Hall, a burly 7-0, 285-pound cen-ter, will continue in his backup role to

Dixon. Kadeem Batts is a frontcourt candidate who could be a factor in the low post. The 6-9 Batts was red-shirted last season.

Who’s Missing: Forward Jamine Peterson, who was fourth in the BIG EAST in scoring (19.6) and second in rebounding (10.2), was dismissed from the team for a violation of school policy. Guard Sharaud Curry was a four-year con-tributor who finished his career by averaging 15.5 ppg last year. He fin-ished fifth on the BIG EAST career list for free throw percentage in league games, hitting 87.9 percent. Guard Brian McKenzie (5.8) was a solid pe-rimeter shooter.

storylines: The Friars will still be a young squad this season, but Council and Dixon proved themselves last season as freshmen. Brooks has been a pro-ductive scorer throughout his career. Some of the freshmen will get long looks to fill in at the other positions. Gerard Coleman could help right away. Like Brooks, Coleman can play the big guard or on the wing. Dre Ev-ans may be slotted this year to back up Council at the point. Forward Ron Giplaye is a strong, physical player who may contribute immediately around the basket. Forwards Brice Kofane and Lee Goldsbrough also will compete to earn a spot in the ro-tation. Last season, the Friars led the BIG EAST in scoring (82.4), but were last in scoring defense (82.2).

the Big Picture:New coach Mike Rice takes over the Scarlet Knight program. Rice comes from Robert Morris where he led the Colonials to a 73-31 record in his three-year tenure there. He was named Northeast Conference Coach of the Year in two of those seasons. This past year, he led his team to the NCAA Championship where Rob-ert Morris lost an overtime decision to Villanova in the first round. Rice will have only six scholarship players and not much size on his first Rutgers team. He has preached that defense will be a top priority as he builds the Rutgers program.

Who’s Back: Forward Jonathan Mitchell returns for his senior season after averag-ing 11.8 points and 6.1 rebounds. A transfer from Florida, he was the only Scarlet Knight to start all 32 games last season. Mitchell, who can score from the perimeter and be effective near the basket, also was the top RU player from the free throw line, mak-ing 89.4 percent. Forward Dane Miller was one of the BIG EAST’s top freshmen last season. He became a starter midway through the season and finished with a 9.2 scoring mark and a 5.9 rebounding average. He was a unanimous pick for the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team. Guards Mike Coburn and James Beatty, a pair of seniors, are back after part-time start-ing duty last year. Coburn, a combo guard, averaged 6.6 points and 3.3

assists. Beatty, whose playing time increased as the season progressed, is more of a true point guard. He averaged 5.5 points and 3.6 assists. Six-eight sophomore forward Austin Johnson averaged 2.6 points and 2.1 boards while playing 11.0 minutes per game. Guards Mike Kuhn and Charlie Rigoglioso, a transfer from Moravian, will provide depth in the backcourt.

Who’s Missing: The Scarlet Knights lost guard Mike Rosario, the team’s top scorer in each of the past two seasons, who trans-ferred. Forward Gregory Echenique transferred at midseason after aver-aging 12.6 points and 7.7 rebounds. Center Hamady Ndiaye was named Defensive Player of the Year as a senior. An NBA draft choice, he had

a league-high 145 blocked shots while posting averages of 9.4 points and 7.1 rebounds. Reserve forward Patrick Jackson (2.4, 1.6) also trans-ferred.

storylines: With only six scholarship players on the roster, Rice will give six newcom-ers plenty of opportunities. Gilvydas Biruta is a 6-8 freshman with a repu-tation as a strong perimeter shooter. Freshman Austin Carroll will press for duty at shooting guard. Guard Tyree Graham is a high-scoring junior col-lege transfer who began his career at Texas Tech. Swingman Mike Poole and forward Frank Mitchell bring all-around skills. Robert Lumpkins, a late addition, is a 6-7 transfer from New Mexico State.

the Big Picture:The 2010-11 edition of the Red Storm will be brand new on the end of the bench with Steve Lavin taking over as the head coach. The players from last season, though, are mostly the same. Lavin’s first St. John’s team includes 10 seniors. Last season, the Red Storm reached the NIT. Lavin wants to play an uptempo game and will try to keep this veteran group moving upward. St. John’s finished 17-16 overall and 6-12 in the BIG EAST.

Who’s Back: Just about everyone is back and just about everyone is a senior. Swing-man D.J. Kennedy is the one of the BIG EAST’s top all-around performers. Last year, he averaged a team-lead-ing 15.1 points and 6.1 rebounds while also leading the team in assists (102), steals (38) and blocks (22). The other returning double-figure scorer is guard Dwight Hardy who served in a sixth-man role and averaged 10.5 points, shooting 38.3 percent from 3-point range. Guard Paris Horne av-eraged 9.2 ppg and is back as a start-er. Malik Boothe is the incumbent at point guard. He averaged 4.9 points and 2.9 assists. Sophomore Malik Stith (1.6) will try to make some in-roads for playing time at the point, after playing in 32 games last year. Up front, 6-8 forward Sean Evans settled in as a starter and averaged

6.7 points and 5.9 rebounds. Six-eight Justin Burrell (6.6, 4.4) mostly came off the bench after two seasons as a starter. Six-ten Dele Coker (1.7, 1.7) cracked the starting lineup nine times last year. Senior forward Rob Thomas, sophomore guard Quincy Roberts and senior guard Kevin Clark saw limited action.

Who’s Missing: Big guard Anthony Mason, Jr,, who was slowed by injuries in each of the past two seasons, averaged 7.3 points and 5.4 rebounds last year in 19 games. Reserve guard Omari Lawrence (2.3, 1.5) transferred.

storylines: It’s hard to imagine a team with 10 seniors, but Lavin certainly has an ex-perienced group for his first St. John’s team. Heralded freshman forward Dwayne Polee, Jr. is the only new-comer. Eleven of the 16 Red Storm losses were by 10 points or less. Lavin’s preference for an uptempo pace may help push St. John’s up in the BIG EAST standings.

the Big Picture:The Pirates have turned to Kevin Wil-lard as their new head coach. After three successful seasons at Iona, Wil-lard takes over a Seton Hall team that finished 19-13 overall, 9-9 in the BIG EAST, and made the NIT. His first Pi-rate club will have five players who were at least part-time starters a year ago. If some newcomers can fit in smoothly, Willard may have The Hall moving up the BIG EAST ladder.

Who’s Back: Guard Jeremy Hazell was third in the BIG EAST in scoring last year, averag-ing 20.4 ppg. He made 3.1 3-pointers per game, which was a league high. Hazell was an All-BIG EAST Second Team selection. Forward Herb Pope won the league rebounding crown with an 11.1 average in conference games. The 6-8 junior averaged 10.7 boards overall to go along with an 11.5 scoring mark. Forward Jeff Robinson became eligible in late De-cember and was an immediate factor, averaging 12.2 points, 5.8 rebounds and shooting 53.6 percent from the floor. Guard Jordan Theodore played mostly at point guard. The 6-0 junior averaged 9.3 ppg and was an effec-tive defensive pest. Senior guard Keon Lawrence (4.1) made 13 starts. Senior guard Jamel Jackson (4.8) and sophomore forward Ferrakohn Hall (2.4, 1.7) both played a little more than 10 minutes per game.

Who’s Missing: Eugene Harvey enjoyed a solid ca-reer at point guard and finished third on the school’s all-time assist chart. Last season, he averaged 8.5 points and 4.6 assists. Forward Robert Mitchell averaged 8.4 points and 3.8 rebounds. Center John Garcia aver-aged 3.3 points and 3.5 boards while starting 16 games.

storylines: The Pirates were second in the BIG EAST last year in turnover margin (+3.19) and Willard would like to see that efficiency continue this season. The Pirates, already with experienced players at each position, got a late summer boost with the addition of guard Eniel Polynice, a transfer from Mississippi who is eligible to play immediately. Last season, he aver-aged 8.8 points, 4.1 rebounds and a team-leading 3.9 assists for the Reb-els. The other four newcomers are all freshmen. Fuquan Edwin is a 6-6 swingman. The others will contend for playing time in the frontcourt: 6-9 Patrik Auda, 6-11 Aaron Geramipoor and 6-8 Anali Okoloji.

the Big Picture:Last year, the Bulls became a fac-tor in the BIG EAST race for the first time in their five seasons as a league member. After winning four games or less in their first four years, USF finished 9-9. Overall, the Bulls had a 20-13 record and were invited to the NIT. It was their first postseason berth since 2002. Coach Stan Heath obviously wants the momentum to continue. He has to find a way to replace guard Dominique Jones who was the league’s scoring champion and seemingly made all the big plays for the Bulls.

Who’s Back: The frontcourt should be the strength of this Bulls team. Augustus Gilchrist, a 6-10 junior, was slowed by an ankle injury last season, but he still aver-aged 13.4 points and 5.9 rebounds. The athletic forward is the top return-ing scorer. Six-eleven Jarrid Famous was a solid contributor, averaging 10.4 points and 7.5 rebounds in his first season with USF. The senior also shot 52.7 percent from the floor. Six-eight Toarlyn Fitzpatick made 22 starts as a freshman last season. He averaged 4.3 points and 4.5 boards. In the backcourt, junior Anthony Crater is the only holdover who saw significant playing time last year. In 23.7 minutes per game, he averaged 3.1 ppg. Sophomores Mike Burwell and Shaun Noriega both saw limited action last year.

Who’s Missing: Jones, a first-round NBA draft choice, finished 14th nationally in scoring, averaging 21.4 ppg. He also aver-aged 3.6 assists and 1.7 steals. Jones was USF’s first All-BIG EAST First Team selection. Point guard Chris Howard was a four-year contributor who averaged 10.3 points and 3.8 assists last season. Howard’s partner in the backcourt, Mike Mercer, aver-aged 9.2 ppg.

storylines: The Bulls’ frontcourt will be even stronger with the addition of forward Ron Anderson, a transfer from Kan-sas State. The 6-8 junior averaged 5.2 points and 5.3 rebounds as a top reserve two seasons ago and is expected to make immediate contri-butions. Heath knows he needs help away from the basket and his group of newcomers includes guards or wing players who have reputations as good shooters. Two of the junior college transfers are 6-0 Shedrick Haynes, who will compete at point guard, and 6-5 Hugh Robertson, who will push to be noticed at shooting guard or small forward. Jawanza Po-land is another junior college transfer though he will have three seasons of eligibility. He is considered a strong perimeter player. Freshmen LaVonte Dority and Jordan Heath are two more guard candidates.

the Big Picture:Syracuse has been among the col-lege basketball elite seemingly for-ever, yet last season’s accomplish-ments still were noteworthy even by the Orange’s high standards. SU fin-ished with a 30-5 record, set a school record with 28 regular-season wins and reached No. 1 in the national polls. With a 15-3 league record, the Orange won their first outright BIG EAST crown since 1990-91. Coach Jim Boeheim, who won BIG EAST Coach of the Year honors for the fourth time, posted his record 32nd 20-win season. In the last two years, SU has won 58 games. The Orange lost standouts Wes Johnson, Andy Rautins and Arinze Onuaku, but are expected to be strong again in 2010-11.

Who’s Back: Forward Rick Jackson and guard Brandon Triche are the two return-ing starters, but forward Kris Joseph played starter’s minutes (27.8) and was picked BIG EAST Sixth Man of the Year. The 6-7 Joseph averaged 10.8 points and 5.5 rebounds. Jackson, a rugged 6-9 senior, was third in the BIG EAST in field goal shooting, mak-ing 59.1 percent. He averaged 9.7 points and 7.0 boards. Triche earned starting duty as a freshman last year, though he split playing time at the point with Scoop Jardine. Triche averaged 8.1 ppg. Jardine, a 6-2 ju-nior, averaged 9.1 ppg and a team-leading 4.3 assists. Forward Mookie Jones (5.8, 1.6) and center DaShonte Riley (1.4, 1.5) both played 17 min-utes per game last year as freshmen. Classmate James Southerland (3.2, 1.2) played in 13 games.

Who’s Missing: Forward Wes Johnson was the BIG EAST Player of the Year. The con-sensus all-American posted averages of 16.5 points and 8.5 rebounds. Guard Andy Rautins was an All-BIG EAST Second Team selection who averaged 12.1 points. He ranked second in the BIG EAST in steals (2.0) and third in assists (4.9). Cen-ter Arinze Onuaku, who missed the NCAA Championship games with a leg injury, averaged 10.5 points and 5.1 rebounds.

storylines: The usually prolific Syracuse offense was up to standards last year. The team averaged 80.9 ppg and led the nation in field goal shooting, hitting at 51.6 percent. The returning cast has plenty of winning experience and the addition of 7-0 freshman Fabricio Melo may produce some immediate dividends. Freshman guard Dion Waiters, who is Jardine’s cousin, is another highly-regarded rookie and has a reputation as a solid shooter. The other newcomers are 6-7 for-ward C.J. Fair and 6-10 Baye Moussa Keita.

the Big Picture:Last season the Wildcats finished 25-8 overall and 13-5 in BIG EAST, which tied for second place in the conference. The win total tied for second best in school history. VU earned a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Championship, though the Wildcats were eliminated in the second round. Coach Jay Wright, who had six new-comers among his top 11 players, will welcome back eight of those 11 for 2010-11. Like last year, the Wildcats have to replace two starters, though this year’s supporting cast will be more experienced. Villanova will be aiming for its seventh straight trip to the NCAAs.

Who’s Back: The Wildcats will be able to lean on the senior trio of Corey Fisher, Anto-nio Pena and Corey Stokes. Fisher was All-BIG EAST Third Team last year after averaging 13.3 points and a team-leading 3.9 assists. He is one of the league’s most creative play-ers offensively. The 6-8 Pena aver-aged 10.5 points and 7.0 rebounds last season. Pena was forced to play more center than his natural power forward position because freshman Mouphtaou Yarou missed significant time due to hepatitis. Stokes, a 6-5 wing player, averaged 9.5 points and continued to develop as an all-around contributor. Sophomore Maalik Wayns will push to start in the backcourt with Fisher. He made a splash as a freshman, making the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team. Wayns averaged 7.0 points while displaying great quickness. Dominic Cheek, an-other sophomore guard, will be push-ing for more playing time as well. Cheek averaged 5.3 points while offering excellent defense. In the

middle, Yarou looks ready to become a full-time contributor. Despite his ill-ness, the 6-10 center showed great skills and averaged 4.5 points and 3.7 boards. Still another sophomore, promising forward Isaiah Armwood, played 29 games and averaged 2.3 points and 2.1 rebounds. Maurice Sutton, a 6-11 redshirt sophomore, started seven games at center and led the team in blocked shots.

Who’s Missing: Guard Scottie Reynolds, a consensus all-American, was one of those play-ers who seemingly played forever for the Wildcats. He was also the team leader. Reynolds finished his career as the school’s second leading scorer with 2,222 career points. Last sea-son his scoring average was 18.2 ppg. Forward Reggie Redding aver-aged 7.3 points and 4.7 rebounds, but was known mostly for his defen-sive abilities.

storylines: Last year, a heralded recruiting class made important contributions as freshmen. With a season under their belt, they should be even bet-ter in 2010-11. Fisher, Pena and Stokes have been through the BIG EAST wars and know how to win. Freshman guard James Bell will try to find some playing time in a crowded backcourt, though he was sidelined in the preseason with stress frac-tures in his legs. Freshman forward JayVaughn Pinkston will push to be noticed in the frontcourt. In league games last season, Villanova ranked first in scoring, averaging 81.6 ppg. Wright wants his team to play better defensively. The Wildcats were sec-ond in field goal percentage defense, allowing opponents to shoot only 41.1 percent, but they were 13th in scoring defense, yielding 75.6 ppg.

the Big Picture:The Mountaineers made a memorable run to the NCAA Final Four last year in a season that also included their first BIG EAST Championship crown. WVU posted 13 BIG EAST wins, its highest total since joining the league for hoops in 1995-96. Coach Bob Huggins’ squad finished 31-7. Three key contributors -- Da’Sean Butler, Devin Ebanks and Wellington Smith -- have to be replaced, but Huggins still has some battle-tested veterans who should keep the Mountaineers in BIG EAST contention.

Who’s Back: Junior forward Kevin Jones may take over as the Mountaineers’ top gun. The 6-8 junior was second on the team in scoring (13.5) and rebound-ing (7.2) last season while also shoot-ing a team-high 40.4 percent from 3-point range. Junior Darryl “Truck” Bryant and senior Joe Mazzulla are back to share the point guard spot. Bryant is the usual starter. He av-eraged 9.3 ppg while playing 23.3 minutes per game. Mazzulla aver-aged only 2.7 ppg while putting in 16.1 minutes, but he was the MVP of the NCAA East Regional last season when he scored 17 points in a win over Kentucky. Senior Casey Mitchell (3.7) and sophomore Dalton Pepper (3.1) return to help with perimeter shooting. Six-nine, 270-pound Deniz Kilicli missed two-thirds of the regu-lar season due to an eligibility issue, but averaged 3.5 points and showed

commendable offensive skills in lim-ited playing time. Seniors John Flow-ers (3.1, 2.4) and Cam Thoroughman (1.0, 1.3) along with sophomore Dan-ny Jennings (1.5, 1.6) all have had their moments in the frontcourt.

Who’s Missing: Butler ended his senior season as a Mountaineer hero. A team captain, he averaged 17.2 points and 6.2 re-bounds. Butler won the Dave Gavitt Trophy as the Most Outstanding Player in the BIG EAST Champion-ship and was the national winner of the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award. The athletic Ebanks averaged 12.0 points and a team-leading 8.1 boards while earning All-BIG EAST Second Team honors. Smith was a dependable for-ward who averaged 6.6 points and 4.1 rebounds.

storylines: The Mountaineers have three starters to replace, but appear to have some experienced players ready to step into more prominent roles. WVU figures to continue with its trademark com-bination of rebounding and defense. The Mountaineers often appear to be a team with several interchangeable parts. In league games last season, the Mountaineers led the BIG EAST with a +5.0 rebound margin. Guard Noah Cottrill is a freshman combo guard who may see some significant action right away. Classmate Kevin Noreen is 6-10, but is known more as a shooter who can step away from the basket.

BIG EAST Conference

John Marinatto became the third commissioner of the BIG EAST Conference 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 Division I athletics conference. Marinatto continues to create the best possible climate for BIG EAST student-athletes to succeed academically and athletically through sportsmanship and ethical conduct. Already established in the world of college athletics, Marinatto has con-tinued to further his involvement in the national landscape of the business during his first year as commissioner. He currently serves on the NCAA Leadership Council, CCA Women’s Basketball Task Force, NCAA Value Based Decision Making Task Force, Men’s and Women’s Basketball Officiating LLC Board of Directors, College Football Officiating Board of Directors and NACDA Executive Committee. Marinatto brings a deep-rooted familiarity with the BIG EAST into his role as commissioner. He had served as the conference’s senior associate commis-sioner since 2002 and spent 14 years as Director of Athletics at Providence College. His wide and varied experience on conference and national commit-tees adds to his expertise. As the league’s senior associate commissioner, Marinatto had been the BIG EAST’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 stra-tegic 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 ISP Sports. 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. Marinatto’s connection to the founders of the BIG EAST dates to his under-graduate 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 management, 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 basketball 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’s experience on NCAA committees began while he was at Providence. He was an NCAA Business and Finance Cabinet Member from 1993-95. Providence hosted numerous NCAA championship events under Marinatto’s watch, including the 2000 Men’s Frozen Four, the 2003 Women’s Basketball East Regional and the 1996 Men’s Basketball First and Second Rounds. 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 was born and raised in Providence, R.I.
