That may be a true assessment. Maryland has had some good seasons but is not a consistent football power and their hoops can easily be replaced, FSU already has.
I'm still not convinced that Maryland and Rutgers gets the BTN the $$$ everyone says they need to bring to the table. But then, I'm not privy to their information. I just don't see where leaving NY, NC and VA on the table are worse choices than NJ and Maryland.
