The ACC tournament does rotate, you're right about that. But I can't agree with your assertion that the ACC tournament doesn't have an identity. I'm from North Carolina and went to high school here. My high school would schedule its teacher workdays intentionally on the same days that the ACC tournament began, so that students could watch the games and not have to sit in class and be potentially distracted. ACC hoops is a huge, huge deal down here.

Still, I'd say that the Big East tournament is (or, was, before the demise of the Big East) the more entertaining tournament. I'll never forget McNamara's string of game-winning buzzer beaters in the BET several years ago, or the 6OT classic between 'Cuse and UConn more recently. Ideally, I'd love to rotate between MSG and somewhere in North Carolina for the new ACC Tournament, but that's not my decision to make.

This is the potentially the last year of classic Big East hoops, and I'd love nothing more than for Syracuse to go out on top. You have at least one person here in Chapel Hill pulling for y'all the rest of the way out (unless, of course, we meet in the tournament!)
