It would be different if Wake Forest finished last in the league every year in all sports and consistently was not competitive.  They are the smallest school in the P5 in terms of enrollment.  But they are a founding member of a P5 league, and until they are not competitive at all they aren't getting kicked out.  I get the Wake bashing from some of my Hokie friends all the time too.  Then Frank Beamer loaded his football team on a bus and drove down to a game in Winston Salem last month and lost the football game to Wake Forest.  My school, UVA, has lost 9 straight men's basketball games in Winston Salem.

Wake Forest has 8 NCAA Championships across 4 different sports.  I'd bet that there are many other P5 members with less.  Their facilities are modern.  Their baseball park is larger than UVA's.  I get the frustration because UConn deserves to be in a P5 conference.  I can't really say that Wake Forest doesn't.  Would a P5 league go out of its way to invite Wake in the current climate.  Probably not.  But they joined in the 1950s.
