Now VT looks like a bunch of sad hypocrites, since aren't they a part of the lawsuit aimed at Miami, BC, and the ACC for trying to destroy the Big East? I could've sworn they are. If VT and Miami go, it won't be as bad as SU and BC going as well; VT's football is suffering lately, and I'm just sick of losing to Miami. I hope they start to suck soon since Dorsey's gone, but I doubt they will, they've got strong recruiting in Florida.
I don't understand why the Big Ten isn't bitching to get just one more lousy team so it can become a superconference as well. I mean, it's basically the Big Eleven right now since Penn State is the odd man out, they should start courting someone, heck even my alma mater Pitt, since everyone can smell the tinge of death knocking at the Big East's door.
And yea, it would make a lot of sense for the ACC and Big East to merge, even if it's just the Big East's football schools that jump, but that'd never happen. This "crisis" should bring solidarity to the Big East schools that survive. I just wish that all the non-football Big East schools like St. John's, Villanova, Georgetown, and Seton Hall would do like UConn and start playing football in the Big East as well; Temple has done wise to leave Big East football since its basketball is elsewhere. Hey Notre Dame, you listening? All or nothing, baby!
Eh, what am I talking about. The Big East is gonna die, or at least be playing with one leg in a cast for a while.
