The biggest catastrophe is the American logo on the Big East website its only ok if the Big East gets to put similar information on its own website.

I sure hope on July 1st, the Big East gets the ball rolling on the website. If nothing changes on that date, it will show that the Big East is dragging their feet.

It almost seems like there's so much to do that they're not sure where to begin.

No commutation to our sentence.

No way that's the real facebook. The logo looks lifted off of an image search. It's pixelated.

It's times like these I'm glad that I've never even seen a single Facebook page.

I do have to say that the previous cover photo listing all the schools looks like its straight out of Marquette's graphics department.
This one:

Some Examples:

It is made using Marquette's styling typography Univers 45 Light see the Q in MARQUETTE it is a distinguishing character of this typeface, the capital G is another distinguishing character. It also uses correct Marquette color palettes Pantone 123 and Pantone 281 without the more standard gradient.
Not that i'm saying this means anything I just cant imagine anyone following Marquette's Brand guidelines this stricly but Marquette's graphics department itself. Maybe since the league probably doesn't have an in house graphics team yet they are using Marquette's graphics team. Of Note though this does not follow Marquette Athletics styling rules just its standard University requirements. Also the weirdness of all the teams being listed in alphabetical order by date of joining the Big East except for Marquette which is listed first. Just thought I would point out how it looks like a Marquette job.

It's too bad we had to give up our online clout during the process. We need to make sure to get the Big East followers up.

NBE followers less than 500, AAC greater than 31,000...I knew the leagues were different size but I would've never expected this size disparity...
