The third time was the charm for the Big East in its current configuration, and in a big way and at a good time for the conference.
Conference Notes
2015-16 MVC Post-Mortem
The end of the 2015-16 season marked the end of an era in the Missouri Valley Conference, and that’s saying something in a 109-year old conference where names like Oscar Robertson, Larry Bird, Wes Unseld and Ed McCauley grace the list of former stars.
2015-16 Conference USA Post-Mortem
Conference USA didn’t have a regular season to remember, but made some serious noise in the postseason and tries to carry that into next season.
2015-16 WAC Post-Mortem
The WAC’s demise has been much-noted over the years, sometimes with almost a morbid glee, but the league is still playing basketball and actually had three very nice teams this year.
2015-16 Southern Conference Post-Mortem
When all was said and done, there was just nothing that could stop Tennessee-Chattanooga’s re-emergence in 2015-16 as the Southern Conference’s best team.
2015-16 Pac-12 Post-Mortem
The Pac-12 had quite a season and has a tough act to follow. Perhaps more notable is that the landscape is changing and a new program appears to be carrying the flag right now.
2015-16 Summit League Post-Mortem
The Summit League has been on the rise for much of this decade, but the confederation of Midwest and Great Plains schools really outdid itself in 2015-16.
2015-16 ACC Post-Mortem
The ACC was highly competitive, yet had a familiar look at the top, and then it turned on the jets with a big NCAA Tournament.
2015-16 America East Post-Mortem
America East had a good non-conference run this season and saw four teams reach postseason play, but the conference appears to be stuck in neutral from a competitive standpoint.
2015-16 Big West Post-Mortem
Hawaii was a fortuitous-and wise-addition for the Big West Conference when the school joined in 2012, and it took just a couple years for the league to see a significant payoff.
