Boheim is only saying what Pitino, Brey, and Dixon are all thinking.

He has the subdlety of a sledge hammer, but he is right about 95% of the time.

Also, the irony is that he (CLEARLY*) HATES* talking to reporters.

The only thing more aggravating than people that think they are right is people that are right AND know it.

Ok we had another poster at the Cuse board chime in with more clear quotes from our AD last Tuesday night:

"A question concerned the possible site of NYC for the ACC basketball tournament. He indicated that 14 of 15 ADs were in favor (Florida State was against the idea). Dr. Gross indicated that they would pursue MSG or Barclay Center in Brooklyn for a future site , in otherwords alternating with Greensboro, etc.
Finally, the question came up as to why Louisville was granted membership in the ACC. Dr. Gross indicated that it wasn't for academics but as a strategic decision by the ACC from keeping Florida State, Clemson and a third team from bolting the conference for the Big Ten or other places. He concurred with that move."

Now...what guesses do we have about the 3rd team? Georgia Tech?

My money is on the third team being either WF or Georgetown (the secret ACC #16).

Unrelated side note: I'm sitting next to a GTown grad right now. Naturally I have my Cuse hat* on.

*It has not one, but two Ottos on it.

I hear Georgetown has an Otto of their own. He's pretty good.

Heh, does it really matter?
Honestly, I don't remember

I remember. It was one. In 2001 and 2002, the BE had 14 teams and only 12 qualified. VT did not qualify either year. In 2003, we played and beat Rutgers in our only BE tourney victory.

I'm waiting for Georgetown to get bounced from the NCAA tourney before I reply with my full reply.

This article from Villanova's SBNation site says that an MSG lease for that week was set until 2026.

If this year follows the last few you won't have to wait long.
