True, but for the next year or two, wins matter as much, if not more, than

the overall perception of the league. Lets face facts: The NCAA committee decides 10-12 teams that play with the conference champs. The last teams are dictated by ESPN through their stooge, Lunardi. ESPN could care less about the ACC with the exception of UNCheat and dook. It will, as you said, not begin to improve until the 5-6 teams looking for new HC's find them. So far, UofL is the only one who lucked out, or did their homework.

I would argue that NIL is what caused the coaching situation in the ACC.
