How the ACC is treating lame duck Maryland

[mudcat]

This article talks about the scheduling the ACC is giving Maryland in their last year in the league. Yeah, they do seem pissy (and pissed).

Mid major. May develop but I do not believe it will.

What?

I think he was responding to the other post by mudcat about whether the AAC and Nuevo Big East are majors or midmajors.

keep in mind there is a lawsuit over the $50 million dollar ACC exit fee that MD is refusing to pay

This doesn't really surprise or bother me. MD pretty much just announced out of the blue that they were packing up and leaving, without giving the ACC any warning or opportunity to discuss the move. Refusing to schedule big home games may be a little petty, but the ACC has no reason and no obligation to be nice about it. As far as they're concerned, MD doesn't deserve the revenue.

Good. I only wished we could have had Louisville join a year early, and let Maryland spend this year as an independent. As far as them winning a conference championship in the big 3 sports in their last year........

I guess that just shows the character of the ACC management.

Yea, that part was pretty funny.
