[QUOTE="MtnWasp, post: 712767, member: 4110"] The rise of the mid-major programs and general parity has the same watering down effect on the other P-5 conferences as it does on the ACC. "The ACC is King" attitude was challenged in the 80's by The Big East with Thompson, Boeheim, Carlisimo, Carnaseca, etc. I think that the "ACC is King" attitude has always been an exaggeration. However, the ACC has consistently been at or right near the top decade in and decade out. Would anyone contest that the ACC has been the most consistent conference in terms of being at the top or right near the top than any other conference taken over a 50 year period? Personally, I judge a conference by it's coaches and quality depth of it's coaches from top to bottom of the conference. The idea of erosion of the ACC is as much as an exaggeration as thinking the "ACC is King." I see the coaching depth in the ACC as second to none. UVA landing Bennett was a coup for the conference. He is Da Bomb and the heir to Krzyzewski. The fact that Louisville was able to recruit Chris Mack to replace Pitino when soooo many other national programs tried to get Mack for many years is strong evidence to me that the ACC still has it goin' on. We'll see if Wake upgrades from Manning and makes the conference even stronger. [/QUOTE]
