Basketball Season is Just 204 Days Away

College Basketball always begins around November 5th or so which means college basketball is approximately 204 days away. Everyday I will have a new reason to look forward to the 2008-2009 season. I started this countdown about 205 dayss before the season, so some of these are going to be lame, but hey I need 205 freaking reasons why you should be looking forward to the 2008-2009 season.

Reason 204: The Big East is going to be absolutely awesome in 2008-2009. Depending on what players come back for next season, the Big East could have one of the best seasons any conference has had ever. Look at the top nine teams in this conference from 2008 and most of them are getting much better, several will stay strong, and a few won't be quite as good, but teams like that for example Georgetown will still be very strong. The Hoyas bring in a strong recruting class to replace Jonathon Wallace and Roy Hibbert. I'll have more on this to come during the next month or so, but I'll leave you with "Bracketologist's" Joe Lunardi's early 2008-2009 bracketology which feautres nine, countem' nine Big East teams. SU slips in as seven seed.
