The Big East Conference, after regaining the University of Connecticut last season, is firmly on the rise after a tumultuous last decade which oversaw the restructuring of the conference. In fact, the conference is so stable at the moment that legendary commissioner Val Ackerman is considering expansion of the conference in the next five years.

The success of the St. John’s Men Basketball team will largely relate to their success in the Big East, where they secured a winning record last season for the first time in over five years.
