I've heard it for years.
 
And the ACC schools have strong histories of their own. FSU, Clemson and Virginia Tech have had recent success. Miami is still "The U". Notre Dame isn't formally in for football but we will be playing them and recruiting against them. Louisville will be a strong addition. Georgia Tech was a national power for decades with coaches like Heisman and Dodd. Ditto Pitt with Warner, Southerland, Majors, Dorsett and Marino. UNC had Choo Choo Charley Justice and Lawrence Taylor. We are 0-6 vs. NC State. Virginia has had some good teams. Boston College has Flutie. That's the whole point with the ACC: we will be playing programs with strong histories, not like  Rutgers, Connecticut, Cincinnati and South Florida. That's what makes it exciting- and challenging.Thinking "We'll do great because nobody in the conference has the history we have" is a bit naive.
 
I agree the extra money and infrastrtucture improvements will help but don't the other schools have that, too?  
 
We need a good start. But I think we'll get one.
