More speculation on the Big East's sudden cold feet about Villanova.
An article on PPL Park, the proposed home for Villanova football.
From the Big East statement":
“The Big East Conference and Villanova University have worked closely with each other over the past several months regarding potential football membership," Marinatto said in the statement. "We will continue with our due diligence process and work with Villanova to continue to share relevant information and materials. The Big East Conference obviously very much values its long-standing relationship with Villanova and we are committed to continuing to work with them on this matter in an open and forthright manner. Until there is additional information to report, the conference plans no further comment.”
My feeling is that this is a lot like the Arab League supporting the "No Fly Zone" in Libya, confident that China or Russia would veto the motion, and then being flabbergasted when that didn't happen. Apparently, some Big East administrations were surprised when it looked like Villanova was poised to make the move. Those schools then were faced with the prospect of a small Catholic school with a very limited fan base and no stadium joining their BCS league----and didn't like the prospect.
