If it could happen, the odds of it happening can't be zero. Those two statements are in direct conflict. I said it's possible for a business to improve its image and that your quote from WB doesn't hold up, and I gave an example proving it. I did not say that the ACC would become the dominant...

Nowhere did I say that, but good try with that strawman.

If the implication is that a business can't improve from a previously bad reputation, that's simply not true. Is it hard to do, absolutely. Is it quick, not usually. Is it likely, maybe not. Can it be done, 100%. Just off the top of my head, Taurus firearms is a perfect example. Taurus was...

It sounds like we hired the wrong guy for the position then and Phillips should have been hired for a more behind the scenes role. The conference commisioner is the mouthpiece for every conference, that person needs to speak up.

Tying back to the conference realignment thread - you clearly understand the narrative that been pushed and the ACC has allowed for a while now. Obviously to us it's not true, but Jim Phillips isn't doing anything to contest it either. The ACC went 4-4 against the Big 10 and 7-5 against the SEC...

Look for other ways to generate revenue for the conference? Champion/promote/market the conference and it's members? The ACC's image is horrible, not because of the actual product on the field but because of how the ACC allows it to be perceived. Although I don't think it's necessarily...

That was exactly my point - he's like Bobinski aka Bobinsquatch, nobody's really seen or heard from him. Might as well not exist.

He said garbage, mediocre, and pretty strong, but that doesn't change my point that no matter how much money they get they are still losers at football. Always have been, always will be. I couldn't give less of a damn about how anyone does in baseball, that sport is boring as hell.

I've mentioned it before, but I have a coworker who is good friends with his dad and from what I've been told, the environment at A&M was extremely toxic and the fanbase was nuts with their expectations. HK had his degree and was looking to get away from that while still being able to play real...

Sure, but that wasn't the case when he was hired. What has he done to benefit the conference since he was brought on board?

If we are talking about winning football games, yes. You give them as many fans and as much money as you want, USCe and Mississippi State are still losers.

You were the one who picked Oregon, not me.

Are we talking about the same Oregon that has never been recognized by anyone as a national champion and really doesn't have much notable history to speak of?

Agreed. I think after Swofford most of the ACC was hoping we would bring in someone who could put the conference in better light. Jim Phillips has been a total disappointment and imo reminds me of Bobinski - where is he? what is he doing?
