it means that nothing will change unless those two are on board w/ it

Baker, Yormark and Phillips want/need those two to figure out and agree upon the things they have to get...there is no point in someone else trying to do that flying blind re: the big 2...they just tried that in the NCAA reorg

bburgnative • 02/02/24 12:54 PM ET
Greg Sankey is saying it was his idea.
HOO86 • 02/07/24 06:24 PM ET
Next step in the process that many have seen for years, but others refuse
133193Hokie • 02/04/24 10:23 AM ET
Means we will be left in a Metro-like ACC. **
3TechFanz • 02/04/24 08:35 AM ET
Probably deciding how to slice up the ACC
EDGEMAN • 02/03/24 10:31 PM ET
They don’t need to do a thing to the ACC.**
hokieZ71 • 02/04/24 07:37 PM ET
They are deciding who takes what schools**
EDGEMAN • 02/04/24 08:33 PM ET
Precisely the process that is involved !**

B1G-SEC will have 34 schools. XII-ACC will have 33 + ND
obguthr • 02/03/24 08:11 AM ET
Voting advantage won't matter. The SEC and B1G will determine if anyone

Note to SEC
obguthr • 02/02/24 03:33 PM ET
The SEC is already in bed with Texas.**
Maroon Baboon • 02/03/24 02:52 PM ET
What's the difference?

Sankey started the dominos that led to PAC12 demise
HOO86 • 02/03/24 02:06 PM ET
how far back to you want to go - the ACC caused the collapse of the BigE**
133193Hokie • 02/04/24 01:01 PM ET
The Big East didn't collapse. It's name is now The American.
HOO86 • 02/19/24 04:09 PM ET
The BE caused the collapse of the BE. Too married to basketball schools of

Oh, I totally agree. That conference has absolutely ruined college sports

I dont get all the SEC hate. They are at least up front and "honest" about

Yes. Technically, we rebuked them in 2011. Here's the problem. We could

It would be enjoyable......
2hhoop3 • 02/03/24 12:00 AM ET
No doubt. I do think anti trust issues will rear its head
VTMONEY94 • 02/03/24 12:02 AM ET
Remember when the B1G/PAC/ACC excluded the B12 from "the alliance"?
Maroon Baboon • 02/02/24 05:00 PM ET
Or maybe the B12 was smart enough to not fall for it ….**
133193Hokie • 02/04/24 09:26 PM ET

I doubt it. Don't think they want all the headache. I do think anti-trust

The media folks do not want to negotiate 32 separate contracts with indy
33laszlo99 • 02/03/24 08:41 PM ET
All valid points......
2hhoop3 • 02/03/24 09:47 PM ET
Right, it will be self-selection. We may see this kind of decision in two

Stech • 02/02/24 04:10 PM ET
their #1 priority is to screw everyone not in the SEC or B1G

How fun would it be for the SEC to grab PSU, OSU and Mich now.
