Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 867570, member: 1969"] Since my above certainly qualifies as TLDR, I just want to state one point. 1/3 of our former conference mates were long term leeches - Rutgers, DePaul, Seton Hall, Providence, and South Florida. Will not miss them, and it is hard to argue that the conference was that deep with such long term losers. The ACC does not have any long term losers like this. The Big East was as good as any - but much of the "dominance" and deeper feel was caused by a 16 team league vs a 10-12 team league. Once some of the mid pack of the ACC stand up again in a 16 team league, it will have the exact same feel. Further, with two blue bloods around and two of the next tier, I argue it will have an even greater feel. The rivalries will come, and that is the unfortunate thing to lose. [/QUOTE]
