Little things are noticeable in the ACC - CrazyPaco - 04-14-2014 10:14 PM
Just how much classier it is than whence we came..
The conference took out a full page ad in the student newspaper today in order to congratulate Pitt's three ACC post-graduate athlete scholarship winners.
The ACC also had a lobbying day for student government leaders in Washington, DC this past weekend.
Not that these things are a big deal, but through the year, there has just been a ton of little things that have really made a perceptible difference between our old and new home.

Do you not realize these little gestures are only occurring because you're new?

Keep in mind, they are comparing the ACC to the league they just left - the Big East / AAC.

I thought it was Louisville that sent out the Maker's Mark bottles. Oh well, my mistake.

It's also the conference wide stuff. Even things at the ACC Tournament. The differences are noticeable and appreciated.

Keep in mind, they are comparing the ACC to the league they just left - the Big East / AAC.
No, Pitt & Cuse are coming from the BE, NOT the 'Murcain. They've no idea what 'Classless' is having not had the indescribably painful pleasure of chummin' the waters w/ a bunch of our old stalker 'pals' from C-usa, not to mention some new floaters we'd never seen before in conference mate form... believe me, y'all don't know the fun of poppin' open some Butt-crack Buds 'round the old septic pool in the back-40 of Mordor-- within sight of the Gates of Heyall.
Anything be nice & classy after this past year....

Pitt came from a power conference, not some mid-major, one that was winning just as much, if not more, on the fields and courts. Obviously, the Big East wasn't run as well, and it certainly didn't promote any sense of belonging or community. There are small things that the ACC does that really illuminate the superiority about how it conducts its business, things that probably wouldn't be noticed by those who haven't spent time elsewhere. Kudos to the ACC.
I couldn't imagine having to spend that year in the American. Thank goodness you knew the whole time it was only temporary.
