And the 1972 Dolphins went undefeated w/ at least one SU player on the team, and at least one ACC player.

See? I can say irrelevant facts about SU/the ACC, too. But nothing either of us wrote implies a secret agreement to take SU.

Syracuse was chosen because we were the best available choice, not because of some laughably (and obviously) fictitious secret agrreement. It doesn’t make logical sense to say “well, a prior administration made a secret agreement with another prior administration over 20 years ago for no reason, so we’re going to honor it and turn down a better option.”

SU would have been #10 because we were the best available option. We were clicking. VT hadn’t come into their own. And Miami has an image issue.

Then we were almost included in the first BE raid because we were one of the best available option, not because there was an agreement that was almost enforced.

Then we were included in the final raid (not counting the UL add) because we were far and away the best option.
