The long awaited Luigi Suigo saga is over! Villanova has their man and their starting center, a legitimate NBA talent with a ton of skill. Kevin Willard’s group is a solidified Top 25 team with the addition of Suigo.

So many Big East dudes in this NBA finals matchup. The three Nova Knicks plus Champagnie from St. John’s, Castle from UConn, and Kolek from Marquette. And in many ways Rutgers remains spiritually Big East so we’ll count Harper too.

With the reported news that Mike Gansey is becoming 76ers' president of basketball operations, I asked @LaSalle_MBB coach Darris Nichols about Gansey:
"Gansey is one of my favorite teammates," Nichols, who played two seasons with Gansey at WVU, said via text. "Everyone in the organization will feel his energy, work ethic, and humility from day one!!!" #Sixers
