That's a smart way to look at it. We had to do the same thing back in the MIAC glory days, building a defense around discipline because we couldn't get the same athletes as St. John's. It reminds me of how Jim Christopherson's teams would win with that tough, fundamental style. You're right that losing a player like that hurts a conference's reputation. The ACC will feel Miami's loss, just like our league felt it when the rivalries got torn apart by realignment. Good luck to your Deacons this fall.
