This expansion feels very different than 2003 to me, and I'm less concerned

Doormat in the P2 or relevant on the outside which would you choose?

2003 was a watershed moment...I don't know what this is.

seeing rumblings that Big Ten/SEC are talking about an 8 team playoff
vtce2000 • 07/05/22 01:38 PM ET
We're not playing in the championship anyway so why does it matter? **

Which leads back to my original post... is this a bad thing for us?

Maybe?**

Truth. NIL did it for me. Conference money just an add-on.**
HokieDelNorte • 07/05/22 12:23 PM ET
i agree, and its not a sustainable fight to keep up, IMO**
VaPoly07 • 07/05/22 12:09 PM ET
I have similar feelings, but I fear VT not being in a tier 1 TV Alliance

Sports conference affiliation doesn't have any impact on the academic side **

We will agree to disagree, when Virginia Tech joined Big East football
Stech • 07/05/22 02:43 PM ET
I dunno; do you think it is impossible to get those things in Tier 2?
WestyHokie • 07/05/22 12:28 PM ET
I think VT, along with the Big 12 and PAC-10 are relegated to Tier 2

think of the travel budget savings though- playing VMI and Liberty**

We have to hope that VT leadership is NOT OK with VT being left in one of

In the ACC yes, but expansion by the P2 isn’t over, 14th ranked population
Stech • 07/05/22 10:49 AM ET
I agree with this. I could see the SEC locking down the southeast.....
VTejrep • 07/05/22 04:52 PM ET
This is an optimistic take, which I do not share
VT ChemE 1986 • 07/05/22 12:08 PM ET
Right now, they’re not leaving, but if the SEC wants 4 and the B1G wants 4,

Quoting state population only matters for conference network
Colonel Jessup • 07/05/22 11:52 AM ET
Give the state some credit. ;) 12th ranked in population...
Old Line Hokie • 07/05/22 11:00 AM ET
Hey I got it from Chris Coleman’s post on recruiting, but I’ll take 12th. **
Stech • 07/05/22 01:25 PM ET
Most of the B1G states have stagnant population growth or are even losing
