LOL at the ACC -- the rogue's conference

[MdWIldcat55]

Remember way back in the day when fans of that conference were all smug about what a 1st Class operation it was? The attitude of moral superiority was unbearable if you happened to have moved to ACC territory and stayed a fan of Kentucky.

Now they got their own home-grown cancer with UNC -- years and years of academic cheating for athletes, the worst possible type of scandal that will stain that program for decades.

And they added Miami in 2004, and before that Florida State, perpetual NCAA offenders. Miami was under investigation at the time they joined the ACC, and slipped the noose because of NCAA bungling. Florida State has a long history of cheating and with poster boy Jameis Winston has kept up its reputation as an ACC member.

And they added Syracuse, just in time to have the NCAA ban them from the tournament and level significant sanctions.

And they added Louisville, in time for that bunch to unleash the most outrageous sex scandal this side of Penn State, one that is certain to continue as media fodder through the basketball season -- or until their heavily ethically compromised coach and athletic director get canned.

They can't even hold a media day without scandal being in the forefront of the conversation.

The SEC has had, and probably will again have, its issues with football. And 30 years ago, Kentucky had to clean up its act -- which it did without the sickening deceit and denial of UNC-CHeats. But the ACC is becoming the new standard for a conference with no moral compass.

What bad reputation the SEC has in football I feel the ACC rivals it in basketball with Cheating. With UNC and UL's latest Cheating, it looks like it won't be changing the conferences image anytime soon.

Only fans care about reputations. The money will always flow regardless of fan opinions, and college athletics is all about the money.

So laugh and talk trash to your hearts content, for they will be laughing even more when they renew tv contracts etc.

SEC total sports revenue last year: $476 million, ranked 1st. ACC: $347 million, ranked 5th. TV deal: SEC $331 million. ACC $212 million.

All the cheating and shoddy behavior has left the ACC last among the Big Five conferences, with the SEC no. 1. What was that about laughing last?

Pretty sure Tv deal has a lot to do with football, and who wants to watch the majority of ACC football?

If you can laugh at $200 million, can I borrow a few bucks?

No where did I say the ACC is at the top of the heap with contracts. Just said they will continue pulling in the money regardless of fan perception.

Syracuse says, don't forget about me.

Can't speak for all Syracuse fans, but the two alumni I know, couldn't care less about the sanctions. Like nothing ever happened.

Since the turn of the century:

8 SEC football-only infractions (Two from MSU, one from Bama, SC, UK, UTK, LSU, and Florida)

4* SEC basketball-only infractions (Auburn, Mizzou, UGA, UTK)

3 SEC infractions affecting both sports (SC, Bama, Arky)


2 ACC football-only infractions (GT, UNC)

0** ACC basketball-only infractions

5 ACC infractions affecting both sports (2 from GT, one from Syracuse, Miami, and FSU)


*Missouri was in the Big 12 at the time
**I don't think they add cases until they have been resolved, and UNC hasn't been decided on. Louisville obviously has some shit coming to them, so it's really two ACC basketball infractions. Three if you want, UNC's academic fraud was that bad.
