So is your Ownzheimers, good on ya.

And I think the article's premise still exists, [edit] although diluted by their NC. Specifically still applicable is

Quote

More than ever, Florida State fans feel they are a football school hopelessly trapped in a basketball league.

...they all say they are steadfastly committed to their current league only until another league offers them more money.

But the smart money is that they'd stay put as the ACC's poster-boy. The B12 could probably add both USF & UCF for the price of one FSU right now--their stock is a little too inflated.

DN: It appears that a strong football program is (by far) the most important thing the conference is searching for. How important is a strong basketball program, or other athletic teams?

JT: Football is the driver in expansion. Strong basketball doesn’t hurt. But it won’t be the determining factor.

Still...

Probably most impressive figure there was us leading the non-BYU contendahs in the 2010-15 attendance figures, where half of that time span was 3 of the worst years, on the field, in our history ..

And then a fourth year (2015) trying to win back the skeptical fans that left during those down years
