huh? no one gave a bleep that BC left. i hate them for blocking our move after the fact. the straw that broke the BE's back was Cuse leaving. that is what opened up the flood gates. if Cuse had held strong everyone else would have stayed. we didnt try to leave until we absolutely had to.
have a stable football environment
Great, how's their football team doing? Didn't we sacrifice basketball for football already?
The program isn't hanging by a thread, that's how it's doing.
UConn really wanted to go to the ACC. This is not controversial. It's worked out fine for us. That's all I'm saying
and all i'm saying is that it's not hypocritical of us to hate BC and Cuse. they are in a different category than lville and pitt. i just also root against LVille b/c they are a borderline blueblood,or were until they hired kenny payne.
Specious reasoning. Syracuse football team has never been hanging by a thread. Your argument would survive only if syracuse football were a mess while they were outside the ACC, but now is salvaged because of their inclusion. But this isn't the case. They were in an Orange bowl while in the big east and last year got trounced 45-0 by South Florida after going 6-7.
That's the issue where the fanbase splits in half unfortunately
Agreed, that’s where the split is. I just can’t comprehend the half that wants to sacrifice a championship level basketball program to save a football program hanging on by a thread.
perhaps I should have worded it differently - I'm not making a pre/post ACC comparison with them, I'm saying they're not in the independence wasteland.
Yes. A P5 inclusion is definitely a more fertile ground for improvement. No doubt
In an alternate universe, we lost to Iona last year and Duke won it all. This is not conjecture , it’s fact.
I normally hate people who attack takes, but are you serious? First, how in the world do you think we won in 23? Recruits. And again this year? I dont pretend to be an expert in recruiting, but I know someone who is....and he is in charge. We good.
