I would like to use the Big East conference name in my website.. BigEastReview.com which would be a newspaper like website with updates of the sports teams in the Big East conference... could this be done legally?

I assume that you've gotten on Google and looked up references to the Big East conference to see who else is using the name and how.

it seems like it might not be legal but I have done some research and have found Big East Fan websites using the name, although my current project doesn't intend the website to be commercial, eventually we will probably make money off it...

I suppose I will have some time to look forward to changing the name
