John Paquette @wjpaquette 24 Jul Happy to report that I am "back" with the Big East in a communications role. Excited to be working with a group of great schools.

Some might remember he was forced out of the AAC recently, upsetting quite a few media members. Looks like he's back with us, and I never realized he was a Marquette guy, as he was with the Big East long before we joined.

Cool, definitely a great pickup for the league.

Honestly, this may well be the best PR move the conference has made to date.

National media types love the guy and he brings instant respect.

The only other "announced" staff member is John D'Antonio, NCAA compliance lawyer who also left the old Big East to join Val Ackerman. A flurry of announcements should be forthcoming, probably near the date of the launch of the Fox! Sports network in mid-August...

Is John Cahill considered staff? He was hired as the supervisor of officials quite some time ago.
