Who benefits most from conference carousel?

Location, location, location. The popular maxim applies not only to real estate, but also conference affiliation. Coaches in higher-profile leagues are more likely than their counterparts in less well-respected divisions to secure lucrative contracts and sneaker deals, ink promising recruits, and receive at-large invitations to the NCAA tournament.

Pitino might like visiting his old friends off court but may not like it on the court. It sure won't be like wading through Conference USA will it? Time will tell.

It will be very different playing UConn and Syracuse then it is TCU and Southern Miss! It will be very, very interesting and that conference tournament at the end of the year will be something else!!

I'm sure Boeheim and Cahoun aren't exactly licking their lips knowing they will be playing against Pitino regularly.
