It just keeps getting uglier in the Villanova-Big East story. This week the Big East sent a "we-really-like-you-but-not-in-that-way-and-we-hope-we-can-still-be-friends letter".

The Syracuse Blog has a very funny post on the Big East Villanova contretemps.

Humor aside, you have to wonder :"What were the Big East brass thinking?" They knew the Wildcats didn't have a stadium. They knew Villanova was a small school. They knew a direct move from FCS to a BCS conference was unprecedented. Why let it get as far as it did? This does not reflect well on the league.
