With the NCAA Tournament now in full swing today, I think it's a bit overdue to name my All-Big East Teams for the 2018-2019 Men's Basketball season. Before we get into the individual teams, let's get the main awards out of the way shall we? Big East Player of the Year - Markus Howard (Marquette) …

Providence Friars (18-15) 62 #25 Villanova Wildcats (23-9) 73 Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before...the Providence Friars lose a close game to the #1 seeded Villanova Wildcats in the Big East Tournament.

Providence Friars (14-11) 67 #13 Villanova Wildcats (20-5) 85 As lopsided as the final score looks, the game was actually much closer throughout than the result would indicate.

Providence Friars 69 (14-7) #1 Villanova Wildcats 89 (19-1) If you're going to beat the #1 team and the country AND beat them at their place, you have to play a pretty perfect game. After starting out hot and having a lead for the beginning of the game, foul trouble to Kyron Cartwright stalled things …

It still may be a little too far away to be doing my Pre-Season Big East Men's Basketball Awards for the 2017-2018 basketball season but fuck it, I was both bored and had nothing else to write about. Anyway, I've been thinking about who was going to make the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd teams this …
