NO JUST RAISE MORE MONEY
Programs have to fund the delta themselves.s FIND IT instead of crying about it. If it means naming rights on every icon to get the delta dollars. If it requires premium seating great do it. and it requires these so called fans, who are thing and crying and want to leave the ACC, to write a check, hey its tough, it might require 1000 -2000 dollar donation. That's the battlefield challenge of the ACC.
IF the top football brands of ACC just win again, it will take care of itself. First the ACC schools need to win the big stage OOC games. Miami beat A&M , FSU beat LSU and well as clemson and UNC do the same. then in the scheduling the all play each other, so it could end up could be bunch of 10-2 records. Then for VT (crazy hope with our schedule ) most games are competitive (probably except FSU). VT does their job in OOC games and acc just lose to FSU and boom, the Acc has Miami, FSU, clemson UNC at 10-2 and VT 11-1. and what is the National narrative then???
