"The ACC already looks a lot like the Big East, as additions of Miami, Virginia Tech, Boston College, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame and Louisville give it a familiar feel.

And this is the part that ACC folks don't like to hear: As the college landscape keeps shifting, the ACC will continue to look a lot more like the "old" Big East, just like the soon-to-be-renamed Big East now resembles the old Conference USA.

All five major conference commissioners privately acknowledge that realignment isn't done. And the next logical evolution will inevitably be a poaching of the ACC."

Everyone is waiting on the outcome of the Maryland lawsuit before making another move.

Maybe. And maybe someone decides to roll the dice and cherry pick their choices before someone else does.

We'll see. If there is anything that all the conference shuffles have taught me it is how little I know about what these guys will do.

The NCAA needs to host a mixer where the only requirement for attendance is the willingness to leave when you are happy with your conference alignment and division. Lets stop with the water torture and have it out in one long weekend. Schools can hug-it-out, fight-it-out, cajole-it-out, etc. let the chips fall where they may.

Afterwards we can get back to the business of playing our games in peace. OMG. So lame... the whole damn thing.
