Message: [QUOTE="Bald Husky, post: 3886847, member: 11020"] Lets face it, we had no choice than to move to the BE. The AAC was killing us, no challenge in WBB, MBB was so totally disappointing, football went downhill fast. When BC blackballed us from the ACC our goose was cooked. I still can't believe that a new member had that much influence on the charter members to turn them against us. Of course, we had one more chance, but our broken football program gave Louisville the edge needed to push us out again. I didn't think WBB success would change much, but I thought we would find at least a couple of challenges. On the mens side, it is a little better. Unfortunately, we will never get the feeling back when playing Villanova, Georgetown, and St Johns. The anticipation of playing them, the great coaches, the great players are gone. Maybe in ten years down the road we can develop new rivalries with these, or other teams in the conference. For this old dog, and I'm sure to a lot of you out there, it will never be the same.
