Committee, we live in a world in which post seasons tournaments have expenses, and those expenses have to be paid for by selling out arenas. Who’s gonna do it? Clemson? Seton Hall? We have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom, keeping college basketball relevant in the northeast. You laugh at our conference affiliation, and you curse our football program. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know — that our football program, while tragic, probably saved our athletic department's hopes of going to the P5 and the Diaco coaching nightmare, while grotesque and incomprehensible to, well to pretty much everyone, probably kept our realignment dreams alive. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want us in MSG — you need us in MSG." [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
