Agreed.  Last year over on the Big East boards, we tried to do an update of Mandel's lists.  I thought the best of them was this entry by a Northwestern fan:
 
[U][B]Kings[/B][/U]
Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Louisiana State, Miami, Michigan, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Penn State, Southern California, Texas

[U][B]Barons[/B][/U]
Arkansas, Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Iowa, Oregon, Pittsburgh, Tennessee, Texas A&M, UCLA, Virginia Tech, Wisconsin, West Virginia

[U][B]Knights[/B][/U]
Arizona State, Boise State, Boston College, BYU, California, Colorado, Louisville, Maryland, Michigan State, Mississippi, Missouri, Navy, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Syracuse, Texas Christian, Utah, Washington
 
Again, I didn't bother to include the last category since that has gotten me into trouble in the past. 
 
I'm not sure Pitt is at Baron status presently.  I see them more as a Knight now, but definitely one of the Knights that could easily be elevated to Baron status with a decent 5-year run.  But in terms of TV, apparently they get as many games on as WVU and do well in the ratings, so perhaps for expansion purposes, they are a Baron.
 
Still shaking my head that both the Pac-12 and the Big 12 are getting anywhere near SEC and BiG $$$ while the ACC is fast becoming the Big East of the new college landscape in that regard.
 
Cheers,
Neil
