The Big East Conference will hold their annual Media Day on Wednesday and you can catch all the action live on ESPN3.com The coaches of the various teams will take turns answering questions from reporters throughout the day, but part of the appeal of media day is that the preseason poll, all-conference selections and various players of the year are announced. According to Nathan Fenno, the news isn't great for Georgetown, who was picked to finish tenth among 16 conference teams. Here is the official poll.

1. Connecticut, Syracuse;

3. Louisville

4, Pittsburgh

5. Cincinnati

6. Marquette

7. West Virginia

8. Villanova

9. Notre Dame

10. Georgetown

11. Rutgers

12. St. John’s

13. Seton Hall

14. USF

15. Providence

16. DePaul

There were no Hoyas on the preseason all-conference team which was led by Pittsburgh point guard Ashton Gibbs, the pre-season player of the year. The preseason rookie of the year is Andre Drummond, the dynamic center who committed to UConn very late in the process.
