Villanova Basketball vs Providence: Big East Tournament Preview

Alright. After a week of anticipation in lieu of having any Villanova Wildcats basketball to watch, we now know that the ‘Cats are set to go up against the Providence Friars in their noon tip-off game this afternoon. But what exactly do this season’s version of the Friars have in store for the ‘Cats?

For one, they’re young. By no means are they Georgetown young, but two of the Friars’ starting guards(they play a four-guard lineup) are their top two recruits from the Class of 2018, A.J. Reeves and David Duke. Senior Isaiah Jackson adds experience to the backcourt, while junior Alpha Diallo adds that plus a healthy heaping of star-power on top.
