Payne has a lot of work to do, going to be a long season for the Cards.

You know there is much work to do in order to get the program back close to where it assumes it should be, and you hire a guy with 0 HC experience primarily because he is an alum?

Very risky. Even if you love the fact that Payne is a coaching protege of Calipari. And why should any Cardinal love that?

The ACC is off to another very bad start to the non conference matchups (not Virginia). Have to at least be respectable for overall NET ratings. After last year, I thought they would bounce back, but ouch so far. That Big 10/ACC challenge may be vital to save some overall value within conference.

Agree 100 percent. The conference as a whole needs to step up during the Big 10/ACC challenge, if not the league will not garner any respect on their work during the season. The gap between the top teams in the ACC play so far suggest that some teams are really bad so far. But they have any opportunity to improve as the season progresses.

ACC basketball may never again be what it was for so long because football is 4 or 5 times bigger than basketball and the ACC has always let football slide, which means the ACC has let the conference slide, which is the reason that the ACC may be irreversibly set up for quick death as soon the end of the GOR is closer.

If you realize how far behind you are in football prestige and respect and money, you then shift money and energy from basketball to try to save the conference. And that leads to weakening basketball. But that is your only choice short of of ending ACC football and hoping to be another Big East, which also will weaken basketball.

40 and 50 years of refusing to face reality has dire consequences.

Louisville has one of the worst teams I have seen in years.

To be honest I do have to agree with your post.

Why are you even posting here? You don’t give a damn about any sport other than football, you’re just here to talk more shit. Your beloved football is what’s going to be the complete ruin of college sports. Don’t try to blame basketball for ruining the ACC, it‘s football money greed and fans like you which are squarely to blame.
