Nothing about those comments is even remotely newsworthy. It was a coach advocating for his conference. People who do not like K will read into it what they will. That's life and I am completely uninterested in talking about it.

Don't most conferences have 1 really good team and a good amount of good teams?

Syracuse, Duke, UNC, Pitt
Michigan State, Wisconsin, Iowa, Ohio State
Iowa State, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas State

One of those 3 is clearly weaker than the others in my opinion. It's depth comes from the next tier (WVU, Baylor, Oklahoma State) being better than what other conferences have in the 6-8 spots, but none of them are on Kansas' level.

Mulva;1592852 wrote:At the top? No. Although Syracuse turning into a team of Ira Newbles didn't help. Overall the ACC was never close to being the best conference.

Texas and Kansas State ended up as 7 and 9 seeds. I think the "not impressed with anyone outside of Kansas and Iowa State" comment that I made still makes a lot of sense.

I was just pointing out the apparent and dramatic tune change by Wildcats regarding the ACC.

I was just going to mention the ACC. An argument could definitely be made for it [being the top conference].

wildcats20;1592825 wrote:No. No it wasn't [the top conference].

wildcats20;1592859 wrote:I said you could make a case, yes.

You said the ACC was the best conference. I said no, no it wasn't.

Wake has great potential, and with the right coach could compete for national titles every now and then. It wasn't too long ago that Wake was the No. 1 team in the country (2009).

I always felt that, had he not passed away, Skip Prosser would've taken Wake to some Final Fours. The ACC took a big hit when he died.
