ACC: After losing four teams, the league goes back to its basketball roots and adds West Virginia and Connecticut in order to make it’s men’s basketball tournament a marquee event again. There will be a fight about taking South Florida because the ACC doesn’t want to give up that state as part of its footprint. There will also be a fight about going back to 12 teams because the strongest schools in the league, Duke and North Carolina, still don’t like being in a conference that big because they believe it dilutes the basketball product.

Also some positive comments by readers on USF

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
