Kevin Willard has never been a fan of the way the Big East puts together its conference schedule.
From the day he took over, Willard has always had something to say about Seton Hall’s conference slate. From rugged weeks against stacked opponents to the ridiculous 9 p.m. time slot that the Pirates often found themselves relegated to, Willard has never been shy about voicing his displeasure about the schedule.
Most of the time, Willard’s complaints are unwarranted and simply vented out of frustration. Sometimes, coaches look for things to blame and Willard has turned to the schedule as a scapegoat on numerous occasions.
