With the schedule now out, if anyone wants to talk to fans of other Big East schools about it or any other topic, I recommend visiting Holy Land of Hoops. It's a board specific to the Big East, but doesn't contain any board specific to a specific school, so it doesn't compete with buhoops or butlerhoops. It's typically pretty friendly.
Michael DeCourcy @tsnmike 13m Marquette freshman Duane Wilson is out for the start of the season because of a stress fracture in his leg. Top-100 recruit.

SB Nation CBB @SBNationCBB 2h Ohio and Xavier scrimmaged over the weekend. The result was apparently 71 fouls and 91 free-throws attempted. http://imgur.com/LxzyzDh
Philmore and a guy from Ohio had 7 personal fouls apiece. Good stuff Also, if that's X's starting lineup, goodness their front line is going to have some size. Philmore at 6'8, 230 and Stainbrook at 6'10, 263. Will be tough for Butler to stop. Also pretty surprising to see Dee Davis coming off the bench.
Ohio outscored Xavier in the paint 34:28 Ohio beat them in 2nd chance points 17:5 Ohio's starting lineup featured guys 6'9" 203, 6'7" 189, and 6'6" 210 I'm not a fan of our "big" lineup but it may have to be used out sheer necessity
Against Xavier, it could be, but Villanova's going to be playing 4 guards and JayVaughn Pinkston at the 5 at least. Will be very interesting to see all the different styles that converge within the conference this year.

Hopkins should come off bench. Gary Parrish @GaryParrishCBS 37m Dear all future transfers: Just gain some weight and claim that your coach tried to hold you accountable. Waiver granted. Easy stuff. Jon Rothstein @JonRothstein 2h In essence, Georgetown lost Otto Porter but gained Josh Smith + Reggie Cameron. Back court remains intact. Strong core of veterans.
