Message: [QUOTE="TexanMark, post: 201507, member: 35"] OPA I agree with some of your points...I don't want to see the BE fail but I think it will fail. Human Nature among these other conferences is to see the BE as a wounded fish...the remaining strong branded programs will be picked away (Louisville, UConn, Rutgers, Cincy, Boise and maybe Houston) as long as the TV numbers come in. All this is for TV...and this TV model we see today could change in 10 years. We should be happy we at least landed in the ACC...it is a workable league for us from the geography/academic POV. The jury is still out on the cultural aspect to going to the ACC. I still want to see UConn (I know not the popular opinion here) and Notre Dame join us in the ACC. Personally, I think WVU was crazy for leaving to the B12 as their fans have no close schools to travel too. I do understand why they did it though. [/QUOTE]
