When the clock strikes midnight on July 1, UConn athletics will be back where they belong in the Big East. Of course, this Big East isn’t exactly the same as when the Huskies were last members, so we caught up with writers who cover those schools to get the lowdown on how things are going.
For this edition, Brad Dobney, a manager at Banners on the Parkway, SB Nation’s Xavier site, took some time to answer our questions on the new conference and Xavier basketball.
Note: these questions and answers have been edited lightly for clarity.
