Let’s put a bunch of issues in the sifter this morning and shake them until we’re left with only gold. Saturday night no doubt created questions and concerns and we’ve had nearly 36 hours to think about them. Answers were not abundant after the game — testy! — but things have since cooled down and some things have been made to make more sense.

So here’s our plan. What are things you’d like to explain or have explained? What are your questions, comments, concerns and/or criticisms? Post your items. Comments on others. The Big East teleconference is about to begin, so we’ll give it some time, and maybe some more explanations, and then we’ll circle back and round up the most popular items and put together some insight.
