William Rhoden of the New York Times has been writing about sports since 1983, according to his bio. I would imagine in those 33 years he has likely not written something so misinformed and perplexing as his most recent piece titled ‘Big Boy League: ACC Rules the Final Four.'
I will give him credit on two things, the ACC is a big boy league and with 2 out of 4 participants they are ruling the final four this season. That, however, is where the truth ends and fiction begins.
The first 60-70% of the article is Rhoden's assertion that the ACC is primed for a run of dominance not seen since the 80's Big East days.
