Three preseason burning questions about the Big East

Ready for some predictions about the upcoming Big East men's basketball season? We assembled four basketball experts and asked them three questions. They've got answers.

1. How much of a step back does Villanova take without Jalen Brunson, Miles Bridges, Donte DiVincenzo and Omari Spellman?

Jeff Borzello: The Wildcats will undoubtedly take a step back, but they're still the heavy favorites in the Big East. Jay Wright always seems to have a long list of breakout players in his back pocket, and veterans Eric Paschall and Phil Booth are going to take big steps forward.
