not according to the governor and the General Assembly

Funny they dont agree on much but on this consensus its almost unanimous. From Senators, toe Congress reps, to Governor leadership to General Assembly. Basically, the board of Visitors (and the president are appointed by the Governor and appointed by the General Assembly. All members and appointees have been given specific guidance on this and if any non-compliance, They will be immediately replaced. During VT entry into the ACC, the board of UVA really wasnt that pleased to support VT (Canteen and Mr Goodwin ws fine), but Gov Warner advised he can replace them immediately . They were strongly encouraged. However, we dont go there, because while we are emotional fans, at the Leadership level VT and UVA are extremely close ands partner much more than folks think. They know partnership includes the athletic aspect of it. We are not crazy like the others.

If VT lands in SEC and UVA in Big 10, I don't see them fighting that

My guess is Clemson, FSU, VT and NCSU end up in the SEC. UVA, Duke, Ga Tech
