I think people are overestimating the hard feelings. By then at least one other program, and most likely three others, will be on there way out. And the majority of those that stay will realize they don't have a dog in the football fight and the basketball side of things is still more than strong enough to survive. I have wanted to hit the BET for a long time, so my new goal is to go to the final one featuring CUSE and the first ACC tourney featuring CUSE.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#141414][FONT=Georgia]As far as football goes... everyone wants to get there as quickly as possible... I don't actually see it dragging on until 2014, more like an extra year. So the question for me is, how do we want to spend the year that could be the early culmination of Marrone's work, reaching the national level for the first time? With the added size, experience, and depth on defense, to go with what should be a good offense featuring a senior-leader in Nassib, we have BIG potential next year. Are we better off spending that year killing it in the Big East one last time, and shooting for a BCS bowl, but then breaking in a new QB while trying to navigate our first year of ACC play? Or are we better off spending next year in the ACC, where it will be tougher to reach our ceiling, but at least we have an experienced passer to help us quickly establish respectability amongst our new conference-mates?[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
