I'm not sure how enthusiastic the SEC will be to take NCSU if they don't
get UNC. I also think UVa will go where UNC goes. So, if you buy that UNC is a huge must-have and such a must have, that a conference would take those three, then I think that puts VT as the odd man out. But that being said, I think we could get in the Big Ten with perhaps some sort of 4-combination of Clemson, FSU, and one of either Kansas, GT, Colorado or an AZ school. Of the latter group, Kansas would be most likely. But I could also see Kansas going to the SEC with UNC, UVa and NCSU to renew its rivalry with Mizzou.
WRT GT, I know they have been down as football and basketball power, but if the B1G would take Clemson and FSU, this would give the B1G cover to possibly take a lesser power to gain a large market, growing state and another venue to play football in the South.
BTW, there is a caller and poster of Flugaur's show and who appears on other realignment YouTube shows named "Immaculate". He's an Iowa guy and very informative. And he has been putting forth the idea that the B1G will take FSU, Clemson, Miami and either VT or KU. And I think a lot of B1G fans would prefer VT to UVa all things considered.

Those guesses r very possible. It’s a small thing, but I think GT stays ACC
