@becb_sbn How far will the Big East champion make it in the baseball tournament?

Christopher Novak: I am, admittedly, not as well versed as I probably should be with Big East baseball like our colleague Alex Sindelar is. I'll take a stab and say the finals of the Big East Tournament.
Robert O'Neill: I, too, am not as up on baseball as I should be. That's something we need to work on.
@becb_sbn for the mailbag: Is there plans for Villanova to spend National Title money on other sports; specifically baseball?

Christopher Novak: One would have to hope. Our friends at VU Hoops probably are more in the know but you'd have to figure they'd like to do a little better in all areas.
Robert O'Neill: Ideally. Especially now that the Pavillon is getting some renovations, most new money could go to other sports.
@becb_sbn besides msg, which big east arena is a must visit?

Christopher Novak: Hinkle, for sure, is the place you definitely need to get to if you haven't yet. CenturyLink Center Omaha seems like a pretty beautiful venue, too.
Robert O'Neill: Hinkle's awesome. The area around it is pretty cool too. Lotta good restaurants.
@becb_sbn does Nova capitalize on the NC and further separate from BE or does the rest of the conference step up?

Christopher Novak: I think it really depends on the exoduses or lack thereof. If Isaiah Whitehead leaves Seton Hall, coupled with Xavier's losses of Reynolds and Farr, I think that Villanova is the clear cut favorite with or without Josh Hart aboard. They are much too talented and too much of a problem for everyone else.
Robert O'Neill: It's tough to say. Like Chris says, a lot depends on what happens with the draft. I think teams like Creighton and Marquette, who weren't as good last year, may be able to step up this year.
@becb_sbn if you were a hot dog, would you eat yourself?

Christopher Novak: If I were a Vienna Beef hot dog with the works? Absolutely.
Robert O'Neill: I have nothing to add here.
