Athlon reporting rumors that Big Ten is adding Clemson and FSU
VTChip • 07/30/23 09:42 PM ET
"Rumor". If true...
Old Line Hokie • 07/31/23 10:39 AM ET
MSN reporting the same thing
Hokie2Hoya • 07/31/23 09:50 AM ET
MSN just picks up what others publish, they don't report anything
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 10:20 AM ET
I'm going to post a very big rumor as soon as I think it up
HoakieCup • 07/31/23 09:21 AM ET
Just heard...PAC and ACC have agreed to an alliance to protect themselves
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 10:54 AM ET
ROFLMAO UVA has a better chance of beating Tennessee than that happening**
obguthr • 07/31/23 08:54 AM ET
A “serious rumor”? What does that mean? Not even an anonymous source.**
Femoyer Hokie • 07/31/23 07:32 AM ET
Great rumor to plant to get ESPN to enhance it's payouts for the ACC
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 07:17 AM ET
Yes, The B1G is currently a non-ESPN conference. That's easy enough to
33laszlo99 • 07/31/23 10:19 AM ET
Part of me is wondering if that’s the play as well.
hokieZ71 • 07/31/23 07:39 AM ET
Even with the unequal CFP revenue sharing that you mention,
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 08:28 AM ET
Yeah. Those playoff spots are going to be worth major money.
hokieZ71 • 07/31/23 08:46 AM ET
and I might feel for them if they were in the discussion in recent memory
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 08:34 AM ET
Any article that doesn't address the GOR and ACC TV contract
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 12:05 AM ET
Proving fraud is a high bar to clear
obguthr • 07/31/23 09:15 AM ET
Just think how bad this current ACC deal would look if the ACC were
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 09:21 AM ET
But it wouldn't be so bad in that case
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 10:27 AM ET
This one does...using Swofford 'Defrauded' FSU ◄
hokiesrule98 • 07/31/23 09:06 AM ET
You really can't make......
2hhoop3 • 07/31/23 10:33 AM ET
Exactly, 3 has to become 2 at this point, Big12 in weakest position
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 10:43 AM ET
What do people.......
2hhoop3 • 07/31/23 10:56 AM ET
But what fun is that :) More fun to be CO and change with every rumor
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 10:58 AM ET
Think about.......
2hhoop3 • 07/31/23 11:08 AM ET
Dead on and the biggest asset the ACC has right now is time and money
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 11:16 AM ET
The 12 would take Louisville tomorrow. **
Big12 guy • 07/31/23 07:25 PM ET
of course you would, like Pitt, fits the misfit toys model perfectly
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 08:23 PM ET
Truth be told.......
2hhoop3 • 07/31/23 11:31 AM ET
I agree, I don't think it would be 8, it would be a lot more IMO
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 11:36 AM ET
This was just posted below 🔽 by goldendomer**
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 09:08 AM ET
Here is another "source " on how FSU will attack the gor
goldendomer • 07/31/23 05:11 AM ET
sounds like someone who said the 2020 election was a fraud
Mercury • 07/31/23 11:59 AM ET
The article he wrote about FSU and Clemson to the SEC also makes sense
HokieZig • 07/31/23 09:07 AM ET
If it were that easy, FSU would have done it years ago.
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 09:46 AM ET
So much sense that it is unlikely it hasn't already been dealt with
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 09:35 AM ET
Why hasn’t this already happened?
Stech • 07/31/23 09:50 AM ET
I don't know why, because that really seems like the logical win-win-win
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 10:18 AM ET
No date on that article. Lol**
drb • 07/31/23 08:59 AM ET
Interesting, the first part is spot on, the rest of it, does explain smoke
Stech • 07/31/23 07:27 AM ET
I wonder if fsu is really thinking going nuclear
Mercury • 07/31/23 08:11 AM ET
Yep, Fraud is an angle, how realistic, who knows, inflation line is BS
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 07:52 AM ET
At face value, that seems like a valid argument. Bear in mind
VTownie • 07/31/23 07:27 AM ET
If FSU was defrauded, so was every other ACC team.
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 07:06 AM ET
First I’ve seen the term ‘fraud’ used. The inflation angle has zero merit.
hokieZ71 • 07/31/23 06:34 AM ET
The “ACC defrauded Florida state”. Okay ;-)**
Hokie1992 • 07/31/23 06:06 AM ET
By that definition every software salesman commits fraud every day
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 08:06 AM ET
Pot .. kettle**
Hokie1992 • 07/31/23 08:33 AM ET
Eh, I don't see it.
Will StewartAdmin • 07/30/23 11:44 PM ET
Florida State makes perfect sense to me
obguthr • 07/31/23 09:29 AM ET
Disagree
MrFantastic! • 07/31/23 07:23 AM ET
UNC and Miami would most fit their recent MO
hokieZ71 • 07/31/23 06:27 AM ET
Let's assume for the sake of discussion that the rumor has some credibility
VTHokie2000 • 07/31/23 02:28 AM ET
Have we underestimated the scope of The B1G's expansion plan?
33laszlo99 • 07/31/23 09:17 AM ET
Maybe people have underestimated the Big Ten's plan for expansion. At the
VTHokie2000 • 07/31/23 12:07 PM ET
Yeah, then their going to set up it's HQ in Indianapolis
Vienna_Hokie • 07/31/23 10:57 AM ET
Would be stunned if the B1G would take Pitt, especially with how picky they
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 12:24 AM ET
They could have added Pitt years ago if they wanted **
HokiesACC2004 • 07/31/23 06:30 AM ET
I love how this is a chain of people reporting that other people heard
Marooned • 07/30/23 11:21 PM ET
Ore and Wash I would believe. But FSU and Clemson, nope
HokieAl • 07/30/23 11:10 PM ET
The GOR is going to be hard to beat. I'll believe it when I see it.**
HokieATC • 07/30/23 10:09 PM ET
People should keep track of the predictions.......
2hhoop3 • 07/30/23 10:04 PM ET
My sources are telling me that the ACC is adding ALL of the SEC teams.
MP4VT2004 • 08/01/23 09:41 AM ET
Right? When was the last time anyone got it right? **
Big12 guy • 07/30/23 10:31 PM ET
That would depend......
2hhoop3 • 07/30/23 10:39 PM ET
I didn't see USC UCLA coming, nor did I read it
Big12 guy • 07/30/23 10:54 PM ET
Exactly, these big moves
vtka93 • 07/31/23 11:02 PM ET
I heard people speak theoretically about it several years ago.
Maroon Baboon • 07/31/23 12:07 AM ET
Good point. I think of all parties, FSU & Clemson need something the most.
hokieZ71 • 07/30/23 11:03 PM ET
Some people claim.......
2hhoop3 • 07/30/23 11:02 PM ET
The Pac-12 grant of rights was coming up on its expiration.
tarheelblue • 07/30/23 10:58 PM ET
Texas and OU had a deal with the SEC, but it was leaked, not announced.
Big12 guy • 07/31/23 12:15 PM ET
Source is literally a Nebraska message board.
