Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 1084948, member: 153"] It's a hard argument to make when you consider that the bball schools decided to give the football schools a heave-ho back in the early 1990s over the inclusion of Miami and Virginia Tech as football. UConn saved the conference back then. If it weren't for UConn, there wouldn't have been a BE football conference to speak of. It wouldn't even exist. I'm not sure what would have happened. Miami would have found a landing sot. But who knows about VT and Syracuse and BC and Pitt. No one knows what would have happened to these schools. VT spent the 1990s feasting on the BE minions while Miami was in a down cycle. This elevated VTs football bigtime. If no BE football, what happens to all these schools? [/QUOTE]
