Correlation vs. causation - our fortunes started to decline in our second year in this league, but it has nothing to do with the conference change. Scholarship reductions and recruiting restrictions would hurt any program. Louisville is a top program just like we are, and they’re having a similar season after all the NCAA stuff hit.Agreed, but if anyone thinks we can regularly compete with UNC and Duke... the first four years of finishing in the middle of the pack has done nothing to show me we fit here. Maybe we weren't invited to the Big East because of football. I get it...
But this is a recruiting nightmare in the ACC. I think JB knew it was going to be a game changer when we joined. He wasn't too thrilled initially.
SU is a national brand in any conference. Our recruiting restrictions were lifted recently and we landed a top 10 and a top 40 player. I’m not worried going forward.
