Nope. We blew it. Western expansion was an innovative idea, but we handled it in a clumsy and timid way. So it failed. Well, we must be doing something right---we've made it through the last 3 months and only lost 13 schools.

Nop, nobody's fault. But y'all, including incoming members have to admit it. No one wants to stay in Big East. That is the fact.
