I think Old Line knows that...


His point is that there are too many private universities. Some private schools like Syracuse bring more value than Wake or BC. If you ever get a chance to travel to upstate NY, you see a lot of SU bumper stickers, flags, etc. Maybe not like a traditional State university, but moreso than Wake, BC, Duke, Miami and Pitt (not private) in their respective States. In many ways, SU is NY's school of choice when it comes to college athletics... for those who actually care about college athletics.

I agree with Old Line and realize a 12 to 14 team Eastern conference could have had a majority of State universities, but probably could have afforded SU, Duke and Miami as the lone private universities.
