Can't agree about "packing the stadiums"  How many ACC games are not played to compacity crowds now?  Half the schools play in arens that hold less than 10,000 already.  Ain't going to seat more people in them!  Only 2 exceed 15,000.  SU packing them in isn't going to improve their status because they are already packed.  Winning games will but when they won't be playing Duke and UNC more than once on a regular basis, it will be tough too.  What sort of Rivalry would SU have with UConn, Gerogetown, Pitt or SJU if the league hadn't had 2 games a year against each.  There has been a starin maintaining that with having only the occasional 2 games now.  Can't establish one without it.  SU will have to consistently, and I mean almost always, be in the championship game if the ACC tourn to get a rivalry going.  And without that rivalay SU can't be move into elite status.  Not saying they have anything to apologize for, just they won't be top tier.  And lastly, considering SU "partnership" with BC and Pitt's with Maryland, who do you thing made out the better on that deal?  If Pitt gets that rivalry going first, who will have the better chance to rise to the top tier?
