Isn't Villanova the "Gonzaga of the East Coast?" Undergraduate Enrollment comparable at 6966 to 5200. I could not really think of a better example though Georgetown came to mind.
UMass is at 22,000 and a state school. Sort of the Anti-Gonzaga in this analogy.
Reread the article, and here's better context: "consistently winning the league and staying near the top of the rankings"

Thought the same about Nova as a better comparison to Gonzaga. Let's say Cal had stayed at UMass though....would UMass even still be in the A10? I'm thinking no.

UMass back then was very much comparable to Temple. Not A Zag

Most focus on the altercation, but you have to give JC strategic credit for (1) pi$$ing on Cal's parade and (2) abusing his criticism of the refs. He had just lost an incredibly close game and the makings of an intense rivalry were in motion and John comes to the defense of the refs. Pure strategic genius.

Right after the Jameer era, a lot of SJU folks were talking about becoming the Gonzaga of the East. Didn't happen. How does the WCC measure up to the A- 10? Is the WCC more like the MAAC?

Because they're actually in Spokane versus out in the Spokane suburbs?
