08:19 AM ET 05.08 | John Marinatto is out, leaving what, exactly? [The] battered league was left at another crossroads. It could either crumble or find itself a billion-dollar television deal in September. The Big East, scheduled to have 13 Football Bowl Subdivision programs and 18 basketball universities, now has a gypsy's soul, with Kardashian commitment issues and a future so unstable that its pool of candidates will not be filled with polished clones like Pacific-12 Commissioner Larry Scott. Marinatto's departure comes after less than three years, a period defined by the exits of Pittsburgh, Syracuse, West Virginia -- and Texas Christian, which left for the Big 12 before ever playing a game.
