In some ways the Hoos are a better cultural fit with the SEC

Unlike the Hokies, they have this old South, blue blood mentality that they share with many SEC state flagship schools. We used to make fun of UVA students for wearing ties to football games. You know who else does that? Bama students. Ole Miss students. I’d say that the 4 top targets for SEC expansion are UNC, UVA, Clemson, and FSU.

Do you think someone like Wake or BC would ever voluntarily drop football?
HokieAl • 07/08/22 03:55 PM ET
Even if they dropped football, they would still want equal revenue, so no.**

We aren't leaving, read my post below.**
