Message: [QUOTE="uconnric, post: 5353724, member: 86"] It was a much different scenario 20 years ago when the ACC invaded the Big East. Miami and travel partner BC lobbied to keep us out of the mix. DeFilipo admitted as much. Today, yes BC wields little or no influence over the ACC, they have turned themselves into one of the weakest members athletically, although with a large tv market behind them. As a private Catholic college they never really fit the ACC mold. The ACC is now more worried about keeping their marquee teams intact. Obviously Clemson, FSU and MIami want out along with a few others who haven't made their long term goals public. When the GOR expires in 2030, the ACC will be blown up, re-shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic. [/QUOTE]
