Plenty. I just don't think that it was a big of a move as you apparently. I think the ACC is always grossly overrated.

The recruits haven't been nearly as plentiful as it used to be. Kentucky is getting the best talent IMO.

Yea I know. I actually agree. I just think Pitt and Syracuse are great basketball...and with Carolina, Duke, State, Wake Forest, FSU, Maryland playing them twice a year now is going to be great. I never said ACC was tops, but you gotta be excited about the addition of those two. I love Syracuse. Always been a fan. I just think Georgetown should have went instead of Pitt.

I don't know if your an ESPN insider or not, but there was just a article on this.

http://insider.espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/blog/_/name/ncbexperts/id/7004110/ncaa-conference-realignment-big-east-acc-big-12-nation-top-hoops-conference

A quote from the conclusion of the story written by Joe Lunardi :

The basketball-only schools may be wise to break away right now.But that's another story for another day. Today, the Big 12 is the new hoops king.

I will give as far as deepest conference, yes it will be. I just think it will be just like the ex-big east and they will all beat up on each other. Plus it will cause more recruiting wars.

No. I agree half way. Duke, Carolina, and Maryland will always get great recruiting. Wake Forest and Clemson aren't far behind. But yes, those wars will fucking heat up like crazy. I really think it's a great move for College Ball. Whether you hate the ACC or not, this is a really great move. But ex-Big East might be a good argument, I see that. And \in regards to opinion, no one thinks of Miami as ex-Big East anymore. Recruiting wars make for great talent. And I think expanding areas close to the North will only give the ACC more options and 5-star talent. Because let's face it, New York and Michigan(because the ACC will reach that far now) will only give more recruits to Pitt, Duke, UNC, FSU, and the Terps.

I think as long as Coach Cal is at Kentucky, they will be the team to beat year in year out.
