Message: [QUOTE="Cusey, post: 30049, member: 466"] IMHO, I don't see why recruiting would suffer. 1. They would be playing in the best, most highly visible hoops conference. 2. They would still be playing home games in one of the best hoops venues in the country. 3. They would still get all the TV exposure they want. 4. There's a good chance that SU will still schedule the more visible BE teams left behind, i.e., Georgetown, Louisville, UConn (unless they get an ACC invite). 5. JB will leave anyway in the not-too-distant future, regardless of conference affiliation. So that shouldn't change anything. 6. Even though it won't be every year, the Garden will be in the rotation for the ACC Tourney. Count on it! 7. It will still basically be an Eastern conference, so still close enough to home for eastern recruits. All in all, what's not to like for any recruit? If they wanted to play for SU, the ACC move won't change anything for 90+% of them. [/QUOTE]
