College Basketball teams have many more conferences than football conferences. Even small colleges can field quality national Basketball teams. A group of so-called "Catholic colleges" have taken the old Big East conference name and it now is for Basketball teams. Butler, however, is not affiliated with Catholic Universities, it is a private non religious university.

Villanova, Seton Hal,l Butler, Providence, DePaul, St. Johns, Creighton, Xavier, Georgetown, and Marquette

Probably yes. SEC teams have won the last 6 BC national championship games. Big east teams have't been nearly as dominant in the NCAA tournament. Last 6 winners have included ACC (Duke, UNC), Big 12 (Kansas), and SEC (Florida). I'd agree that Big East is the best in college basketball though.
