Are the Villanova Wildcats the team of the Big East?
Since the reformatting of the Big East Conference in 2013, the Wildcats have been dominant in a time when the conference needed them the most. A 2014 ESPN documentary titled ‘Requiem For The Big East’ detailed the meteoric ascension and subsequent downfall of a conference that was once the most successful college sports league in America.
Despite being left for dead, the Big East Conference prevailed and is once again on the rise to becoming the premier conference in all of college basketball.
