Message: [QUOTE="Consigliere, post: 4716995, member: 559"] At what point does a conference stop being a conference. To me anything over 16 teams is unmanageable. If every team participates in a conference tournament for hoops or other sports you’re talking 5 days. Dilutes rivalries and familiarity with opponents. ACC missed its opportunity with Cincinnati. They would have happily joined before the B12 invitation came. Decent sized market with a history for the former Big East members and a built in rivalry in the making with Louisville. Had they been offered you make a run at WVU with several potential backups. Would have pushed basketball and other sports besides football to 17, but don’t know how to get around the ND conundrum [/QUOTE]
