Greg Fluguar speculation from last night
Take it for what it's worth and I'm not advocated it so don't shoot the messenger. He speculates that the B1G will expand to 20 with FSU and Miami which he has said for quite a while. He also said he is hearing that the SEC will eventually expand to 18 or 20 schools. UNC and Clemson are the first two. Carolina brings the brand and Clemson brings playoff distribution credits to increase payout. He did say this will take some time (2-3 years). He said if the SEC goes to 20 that UVa and Kansas are the schools that he is hearing will be invited. He feels that basketball will be a priority for the SEC. He also mentioned that NC State could put a wrench into this if they can successfully attach themselves to the Tarheels. I know there is a connection politically between UVa and Va Tech and maybe this will keep the schools together. He didn't say how the schools will get out of their current conferences. Kansas has a GOR with the XII. I'm not saying this is the gospel but this guy has had some predictions that have come true (USC, UW and UO/B1G and Four Corners/XII). His prediction of Kansas comes from a source that he eludes to as a Missouri source. Says this with Kansas is not imminent nor guaranteed.

I think SEC is just waiting for clarity in the ACC situation...
