Big East’s Comeback Is Here

The Big East once ruled college basketball with seven top-25 teams and multiple national titles, but realignment in 2013 shook its foundation. Still, Villanova and UConn kept delivering championships, giving the league the most titles since 2014. But lately, the conference has struggled—only three of eleven teams made the tournament in recent years, while others like DePaul and Georgetown floundered. The 2025-26 season looked bleak, with few wins and minimal transfer portal activity.
