John Feinstein has a good piece on the dilution of the ACC basketball tournament. Yes, there's obviously some absurdity in having "ACC" legends like Derrick Coleman or Darrell Griffith (shout out to the old Metro Conference), but I still have some fondness for the tournament. It's probably due to having grown up in Virginia and the outer DC area when the tournament still meant something. I still remember my middle school algebra teacher checking out the school library's TV set at the end of the school day on Friday afternoon to watch the early quarterfinal games.
