Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 27449, member: 173"] The top programs like Alabama have HUGE HUGE HUGE fan bases, most of whom did not actually attend the University. It often seems like the local population expect Syracuse to compete with programs like Alabama...while not recognizing that their indifference is one reason why it's highly unlikely to occur. It's fine if you (or other CNY residents) don't care about Syracuse athletics...as long as you realize that at some point the right business decision for the University is to stop investing any more than the bare minimum requirements in facilities and coaches and just cash the checks from the ACC to fund the entire department. On the upside you'll still be able to pout and sulk about the fact the University doesn't care about you, and SU will have gotten into a conference situation where they can run in the red without you. Probably can't win, but at least can balance the books. [/QUOTE]
