The Irish were well represented in this year's All-Big East teams. Leading the way is Coach Brey who was named Big East Coach of the Year. Russell Carter, and Colin Falls were both among the 11 players that recieved 1st Team All-Big East honors, and in addition Tory Jackson and Luke Harangody both made the Big East All-Rookie team. It was the first time since Notre Dame joned the Big East for the start of the '95-'96 season that two Irish players were named to first-team all-conference team in the same year, and it was also the first time that Notre Dame had two players named to the league's all-rookie team in the same season. I also personally believe that Coach Cross seserves a lot of credit for the teams success this year along with the team members that recieved All-Conference honors.
