Hard to say. I'm sure we haven't been the best sports about the rivalry. At the same time, while we may have recruited a "gangsta" or 2 along the way, X recruited hot dogs like Burrell, Holloway, Lyons, et al who just rubbed a lot of salt in an open wound.

Now we're at the point where we need to win enough (and get far enough in the NCAA in the future) to pressure the NBE and Fox Sports to admit us despite X's objections. As the saying goes, money talks and "bolshevik" walks, and we're going to have to prove to be enough of a money-maker in the future for the NBE to even consider admitting us. And that may not come until the end of their current TV deal, when they'll need more NCAA-related tournament cash.
