Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 4316832, member: 271"] I know the Big East is against adding football schools and going back to that model, but it may someday prove to have been a great idea before it’s time. An eastern conference of northeastern and mid Atlantic football schools combined with the Big East basketball schools looks pretty good when you start looking at who will likely need a home again someday. I would think a school like Syracuse would rather play Big East basketball and then play football against UConn, BC, Wake, NC St, WVU etc. on the football side than just play the realignment rejects in all sports. That would leave Cuse with only a couple of rivalries and once again in a far northern outpost of a more mid Atlantic/southern conference. Of course, a reinvented ACC could be pretty good for us if it was Cuse, Pitt, WVU, BC, UConn, NC State, Wake, UCF/USF and maybe one or two of Miami, Duke, Cincy, Virginia Tech, FSU or Georgia Tech.
