This is new, but for some reason it was filmed at Georgetown. Check out the portal discussion that begins at 10:19. Jordan and Curtis Williams Jr. explain how it works.
I'm transferring in as a sophomore. I want to get into our basketball team, but I'm worried it won't be fun going alone. How likely is it I'll make friends in the student section? Anyone here in Hoya Blue? Thanks.

With Val Ackerman retiring, the Big East is at a genuine crossroads. The conference just had another season where only three teams made the NCAA Tournament. KenPom ranked the league last among the five power conferences. And while UConn and St. John's are both national title contenders, the depth behind them is a real concern.
The next commissioner inherits a league that's basketball-first in a football-dominated world, with a media rights deal locked in through 2031 and the MSG tournament contract extended. Those are strengths. But the challenges are significant: NIL, revenue sharing, transfer portal volatility, and the constant threat of realignment.
So I'm asking this community: what's the single most important thing the new commissioner needs to bring to the table? Is it media savvy to negotiate the next TV deal? Political skill to protect the Big East's seat at the table in CFP and NCAA governance? A recruiting background to help programs navigate the portal era? Or just a genuine understanding of what makes this conference special?
Give me your one non-negotiable quality and why it matters more than everything else.

He was so good his sophomore year. He was Big East Player of the Year and an All-American. The pièce de résistance was his 33, 8, and 5 game in the last Big East regular season game in the Carrier Dome between Syracuse and Georgetown.
Allen Iverson at Georgetown looked like a problem college basketball wasn’t ready for yet.
Watching college AI clips now, it’s striking how little structure could actually contain him.
This isn’t just an elite freshman scoring a lot of points. It’s a player operating in a system where:
Yet he still consistently created advantages off the dribble that look modern in a way the era doesn’t match.
