I would love to have Uconn and Rutgers in the ACC with us as long as it is like this
Syracuse......Rutgers
BC......Uconn
VT......VA
Miami...FSU
NCST...NC
Wake...Duke
Maryland.....Pitt
GT......Clemson

Dont want them in our division but would like to have Rutgers as our rival so once a year we can remind NYC/NJ kids why syracuse is a better choice:)  All those would seem like compelling rivalry matchups neither division is to top heavy.  The ACC would have the east coast on lock down like the PAC has the west coast.

I guess i do have a fear of Rutgers going to the B1G and the effect that could have on our recruiting.  Having Penn st, Ohio st, Michigan, Michigan st, Wisconsin, Nebraska rolling into Jersey might be great points to sell to recruits.  Plus the first 4 seem to have a good to great following in NY/NJ so that could help them sell more tickets.  Also if Notre Dame by some chance joins the B1G they have a great following in that area and i am sure if ND joins the B1G that might become one of their requests to add rutgers for that market.  B1G $$ plus some bonus internal revenue they could prolly give a great boost to there facility's.

I guess i believe in the old saying keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
