Tru dat!

I've often mentioned since our invite that we should be thanking our lucky stars daily and twice on Sunday's that the ACC gave us such a lifeline.  The ACC southern/Carolina school bias garb has been just that, garbage.  It's so inconsequential in the larger realm...just ask UConn, which undoubtedly, we would be today if the ACC wasn't so gracious.

Prior leadership (Buzz Shaw era, etc.) were huge failures relative to being stewards of the athletic program, especially football.  We got so far behind the eight ball, that even now with all the upgrades in facilities, etc. that the ACC has assisted with/been able to afford us, we are still playing catch up...and likely always will in some regard. Lally appears wonderful, but by the time that is completed, it'll probably be a day late and a dollar short in comparison to what other P5 schools have done or will be doing IMO. Moreover, our football record on the field, for the most part, has been flat out abysmal for over two decades, etc.

I have been a diehard SU fan for some 50 years now...bleeding Orange through and through.  However, I'm a realist, and we are seemingly nothing more than leeches, imposters, etc. nowadays, on the P5/highest level football side and realm.

If we do somehow miraculously again get some type of lifeline in the future, then I guess lightning can indeed strike twice in the same exact area.
