Conference Carousel

Post by CameronBornAndBred » November 28th, 2012, 8:44 am

So now it looks like we'll be inviting Louisville to the ACC. I like it better than UCONN since Louisville also has a pretty impressive football program to add to solid men's and women's basketball teams.

Poor UCONN...they've been begging twice now and we've slammed the door in their face both times.

I have to admit that I can't even remember who all is in the ACC now. Is it too much to ask that things slow down long enough for me to catch up and for somebody to design a new logo? 8-}

Syracuse, Pitt, Louisville, Notre Dame, BC, Miami, FSU. This is not the ACC I knew as a young man. But I'll adapt.

As long as I can still yell GO TO HELL carolina! GO TO HELL! and it means something, I'm happy! :9f: :9f:

At least the Atlantic Coast Conference isn't adding a team from the Pacific, like the Big "East," who is adding Tulane, Boise State, and San Diego State. :-\ :-o

Lavabe, or someone else familiar, what is Louisville's academic reputation? Better than Maryland?

And you will be able to! According to Bubba Cunningham, you can do it for at least another 60 years. :D :9f:

I liked it the way things used to be. I liked the Big Four Tournament.
