Message: [QUOTE="Orangeyes, post: 697146, member: 34"] Syracuse people said much the same thing about BC when they left the Big East, yet we scheduled them again. Even scheduled them around Thanksgiving as a rivalry game. Controversy & hate fuel interest and attendance. If all schools spent their time trying to punish schools they perceive as enemies no one would have any one left to play. Maryland left the ACC for much the same reasons we left the Big East, $$$. Their program was so much in the hole that they became an easy target for a richer conference's overture's. I say play them and kick their butts, that will make the entire ACC brotherhood happy. I'm sure if this was a situation the ACC didn't like John Swofford would simply call TGD and say don't do it. SU is beholding to John & the ACC for helping revitalize our cash strapped program.
