Edge of Seventeen?

According to Andy Katz's blog, Big East coaches want to continue to bring every Big East team to the annual conference championship tournament at Madison Square Garden in 2013, when the league will have expanded to 17 teams with the includsion of Texas Christian.

Some AD's apparently want to bring only 12 teams to New York, but the coaches would prefer all 17, with a five-game Tuesday kicking things off. Winners from that day would play seeds No. 5-7, then the quarterfinals on Thursday would look as they do now, and so on.

The presidents will likely decide on the number of teams for the 2013 tournament at their annual meeting this fall.
