Message: [QUOTE="MaxwellCuse, post: 285586, member: 1240"] I cannot see a cultural fit between schools such as Syracuse, Wake, Duke, Boston College, UVA, UNC, Maryland, Pitt and VT and the Big 12. Or Rutgers and UCONN and the Big 12 for that matter. Part of it is academic. Most Big 12 schools can barely graduate 1 out of every 3 entering freshmen. Part is geography. Part is differing perceptions on the role of intercollegiate athletics; eastern students just don't care that much about their alma mater winning a MNC in football. Ultimately, I think Florida State and Miami/Clemson will realize they have no business in the Big 12 but with WVU fans and Big 12 Boosters fanning the flames it will be an unsettled period for the foreseeable future.
