Agreed. But we're still swimming upsteam regrettably.


It needn't be so. I LOVED it when we were accepted into the ACC, but the league has in some ways become BigEast 2.0. This league is a disjointed hodgepodge.

There's publics versus privates. There's basketball centric schools versus football factories. And there's the old school ACC versus the new school. I't a mess and it's not all that much better than the BigEast.

With better leadership and better decision making, I believe this league has a ton of potential. However, as we stand right now, we're about $20 million behind similar caliber programs from the B1G and SEC EACH YEAR. That's rough.

I don't know that we were ever that far behind while in the Big East.

I do feel there are SOME things we can do, but we're stuck in this ESPN deal as we speak.
