Message: [QUOTE="Ldandy, post: 1030887, member: 4584"] I've said it many times before, and I'll say it again. Delany has always had his gaze firmly cast on The DMV. The combination of PSU, UMD, and VPI sews up the region for The B1G in a manner that can not be challenged by anyone else. Everyone always believed going into VA meant taking UVA, but from a cultural fit to me it always meant VPI. They are much more Northeast in their leaning, and more in line academically with Purdue, Illinois, Iowa and the other engineering focused schools of The Big. To me UVA is far more tied to their Southern Identity, and far more liberal in their academic leaning than most traditional B1G Schools. They are an ACC School through and through. VPI is a school that has spent 60 years trading up in realignment. [/QUOTE]
