I got quite a bit of heat when we joined the ACC, leaving the big East because I believed rather than it meaning the demise of the Big East, as many on the board claimed, that they would do fine without having to worry and deal with football issues. They have a single priority -  basketball, and there now wouldn’t be any diversions, time, compromises, conference additions etc to appease the football members. They are a group of smaller like institutions whose legacy and priorities all revolved around just one major sport -  basketball and their fans. Why would the basketball only colleges continue to sacrifice, prioritize and divert their resources to help the football priority schools any more than the football schools would prioritize the basketball only colleges and their more singular needs? It’s worked out fairly well for them as I thought it would - their fans and students are devoted. Basketball is really their entire identity and history.
