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.

If I had to make a bet on what will happen, here is my best guess...

and Vandy in the private school mix?**
MDHokie79 05/12/24 08:02 PM ET
Those guesses r very possible. It’s a small thing, but I think GT stays ACC

How Long Before the P2 Breaks From NCAA?

I think they will take the time to construct and organize the replacement

Kansas > GT, CU or AZ?**

I am one of those Big10 fans that prefers VT over UVA
dayooper 05/11/24 06:59 AM ET
I still think UVa's appeal is overestimated.**

Awesome. Which school are you a fan/student/alum of?**

Good to see your posts. Always informative

Any argument that says the SEC would prefer Virginia Tech over FSU or

This assumes the current status quo will be static.

Of course, there's no guarantee that success will be maintained 10, 20, 30

The state of South Carolina is about 1/2 the size of Va & NC & they have SC
Stech 05/11/24 01:10 AM ET
Here is an argument...
jesuisvtguy 05/10/24 07:17 PM ET
Clemson draws great ratings playing garbage teams like BC and Syracuse
ren_hoek 05/10/24 06:26 PM ET
Maybe that argument can be made for FSU - Florida is a big state and FSU

Clemson has three national championships in football, the two recent ones,

It is not about where you were 40 years ago, nor where you are now...

The highest compliment from the SEC we could get

I do - it seems to be heading that way. I would bet that most of those
