Congrats to the teams in the NCAA tournament....representing the ACC. The best conference in college basketball.
Nope. It only matters if youIt also helps when you are recruiting a kid and you can say you will be playing in the best basketball conference in the country.
It’s about $$$$. They win we win. This year 220 million $ is up for grabs and a portion of that goes to the ACC, which is divided between the members.Where’s the trophy? When the NCAAT starts, it’s about individual teams not conferences. We can’t take a bit of credit for what Duke, Carolina and Miami have done. It’s a tribute to their coaches, some of you were saying that Hubert Davis was a bust…

It’s based on the number of units each conference acquire and that’s determined by the number of teams in the tournament and it increase with each win, so yes it pays to cheer on our conference members. Literally
I love the statement that says “the NCAA urges teams to share but does not require..It’s about $$$$. They win we win. This year 220 million $ is up for grabs and a portion of that goes to the ACC, which is divided between the members.

I know they based the ACC being down on our losses to other P5 teams early, yet they seem to make excuses for the other conferences losses in the tournament when teams should be playing their best.In hindsight, I am not so sure it was a down year for the ACC. Miami, ND, Duke and UNC success is not some strange coincidence.
Aside from the timing, specifically between the regular season vs the tournaments; one could argue based on this tournament, that both the BIG10 and the SEC had “down years”. If these conference tournaments can have that much more influence in NCAA qualification over regular season performance ……then why not use the NCAA tournament as the ultimate determination as to which conference was actually up or down?
