The Sporting News released its All-Big East teams on Tuesday, and TSN’s team looks a little differently than the one released Sunday by Big East coaches.

USF’s Dominique Jones was named to the second team. Villanova’s Scottie Reynolds was named Big East Player of the Year.

Big East coaches place six players on the first team, while TSN lists only five. Of those five, Syracuse G Andy Rautins and Marquette F Lazar Howard made the cut. Neither player was on the coaches’ All-Big East team.

Here is the complete list from TSN:
