thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:VillanovaWildcats.png

message: As a proud Villanova alumnus, I dispute two of the items in the article.  Villanova's colors are not "blue, light blue and white."  There are two school colors only: blue and white.  Villanova's website (http://www.villanova.edu/enroll/fastfacts.htm) says, "School colors are Navy Blue and White."
It is not true that "Most Villanovans count Georgetown as their most intense rivalry."  Georgetown may in fact be an intense rivalry, but any true Villanovan will tell you that our most hated rival is St. Joseph's University.  The Hawk Is Dead!  --173.63.98.53 (talk) 04:40, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  School colors; School rivalry 

message: I removed the following text from the Big 5 section which was recently added by an anon.  It contains a great deal of un-sourced material and quotations which appear to be very opinionated and contain a great deal of weasel words.  I include it below for your review.
During the early 1990s the City Series was cut back to 2 games, allegedly at Villanova's behest. Many non-Villanovan's blamed Rollie Massimino for the de-emphasis of the Big 5. Massimino claimed "it was an institutional decision." Regardless, almost immediately following Massimino's 1992 departure, the City Series was fully restored, albeit on campus rather than in the Palestra at the option of the "home" team, a concept adverse to the original idea of Big 5 games being contested at a "neutral" venue. Many claimed Villanova "outgrew" the Big 5 once the Big East came into existance. However, until recently the Cats W-L record belies this claim as Villanova continued to struggle against their Big 5 foes right up until the Jay Wright era (2001-present) when the Cats finally began to pull away from their local rivals on as well as off the court, where Villanova had been awash in Big East revenues since the mid-1980's. Others claim that Big 5 competition hurt the Cats annual quest for NCAA bids, tagging the Cats with two or more losses a season that would have otherwise been easy wins against lesser non-Big 5 competition. Proponents of this thesis can't point to a single season since 1955 when, but for Big 5 defeats, the Cats would have qualified for post season honors. On the contrary, and somewhat ironically given his alleged anti-Big 5 bias, Massimino in particular, and Lappas to a somewhat lesser extent, were able to "cash in" on Big 5 losses as blostering Villanova's strength of schedule and be rewarded with NCAA tourney bids over schools with far better records based on Villanova's "dual citizenship" in the Big East and Big 5.
