Having Syracuse Pitt Louisville (?) West Virginia and who knows whom else leave the Big East will change this paradigm. Right now, the ACC is getting whooped in recruiting because the Big East is the clear best conference in the country, and definitely the best in the East, where both conferences get the vast majority of their talent. Having two of the top 4 programs in the Big East leave for the ACC will dramatically change the pub we get. Right now, the Big East is the big loser, and even if nobody in the ACC takes the low road in recruiting (yeah right), these kids will hear about that fact whenever a Big East school is recruiting against an ACC school. The shift will occur rapidly. If Coleman were considering UK, OSU and SU and we had just been left behind, does he choose us? Does it even enter a kids mind? I would have to bet it does. The Big East looks way less attractive with four of its best basketball teams leaving, and that will hurt recruiting. The ACC will be the best basketball conference again, and very soon.
