"doing what you have to do" is a lot easier in the SoCon than the Big East or ACC

you can't make an argument that ETSU "would have controlled the series in the earlier part of the decade" all you have to go by is when they did play and VT winning those...which wasn't exactly VT's brightest time in basketball

this ranking doesn't include the time VT made it to the Elite 8 or won the NIT in the 70's...so no, as a whole, the ETSU program cannot and should not be compared to VT...it's not close and the only people who would think so live within a 2 hour radius of the school
