And this move now by the basketball schools is long overdue and smart. I imagine the leftover schools will get the keep the "Big East" brand name and stuff, solely because of contracts. You can't dissolve the league outright because the new conferences would have to petition for pretty much everything and for the football schools, that'd be even more of a disaster. At least with the edifice of a conference, even if the name changes and contract intact, they can do what they need to do to move on.
Meanwhile, the catholic schools and their partners they poach will be able to get their own deal and do an east coast WCC.
