It’s still a bit weird to think of Syracuse as an ACC team. Their Big East identity was so strong that it’s endured even several years after the Orange entered the ACC.
However they are an ACC team now and we have grown to appreciate that they are sort of a Big Four team in many ways, just located in Lower Canada upstate New York.
We really appreciate the area’s passion for basketball. You can hit Syracuse.com almost any day and find something of interest to ACC fans. Take today for instance and this interesting story about guard Frank Howard.
