To me, the VT affiliation

Is important. I think we will end up in either Big12 or a leftover ACC and I think that will be fine for us and we will continue to have a good team and football culture in Blacksburg. IMO, we are just not a good fit for either the SEC or ACC because of the relatively low population in the area around our school. I don’t believe we have the tv rating or revenue potential for the super conferences. This is just my opinion. I don’t know what might happen, but we will be fine because our school and area loves football. I think we are in the same mold football-wise as WVU.

Maryland should be lobbying hard to absorb DC.
Truthahn • 01/02/24 12:21 PM ET
Why would Maryland want to take on all that mess in DC?**

Great Point!

Would love to see a financial/math analysis why the P2 make more than ACC.

There are too many possibilities to come even close to a sound forecast.

I think we need to answer #3 first to then answer the rest

Virginia Tech Alum and fans dominate Northern Va, Hampton Roads & Richmond.

Low population area isn't hurting Penn State.
Old Line Hokie • 01/01/24 11:18 AM ET
Yeah, there’s not much at State College other than the school.

Big 10 schools used to complain about getting there until they ...

Nice to have a commercial airport next to campus.

I don't think the size of the Blacksburg TV market will have anything to do
jrc3rd • 01/01/24 09:39 AM ET
I meant for “the SEC or BiG10” in my post!**
