Message: [QUOTE="kingottoiii, post: 428169"] The Big East failed because 1. it had a bunch of schools with different agendas, 2. it lost all of its brand schools, and 3. it had poor leadership. If the ACC's agenda is to be a top notch academic, BBall, and Olympic sport conference then why would a hybrid be an issue? If the schools are all committed to each other and that goal it will be fine. That was never the case in the BE where schools were together out of necessity. ----EDIT---- I wanted to add Why do UL and Cincy want to be in the ACC? Is it because the ACC has like minded schools both on and off the field? Are the athletic programs similar? Are the academics similar? Is the make up of the school similar? Do they share similar goals on and off the field? Is it because of location? Or is it for $? And why would GTown and Nova want to be in the ACC? The more teams you have in your conference out of necessity, the more likely your conference will fail. [/QUOTE]
