ESPN openly and actively craters ACC schools-

they have a singular narrative - SEC, SEC, SEC. The ACC gets zero promotion, nada, zilch, none. It's a big reason the conference is in the pickle it's in - its biggest media partner is hostile towards its interests. If you're waiting on ESPN to promote an ACC program, or the ACC generally, then I really pray you're not holding your breath.

If I had to make a bet on what will happen, here is my best guess...
CobbCountyHokie • 05/10/24 11:22 AM ET
will say it again
MrBayAreaHokie • 05/11/24 09:46 AM ET
and Vandy in the private school mix?**
MDHokie79 • 05/12/24 08:02 PM ET
Those guesses r very possible. It’s a small thing, but I think GT stays ACC

How Long Before the P2 Breaks From NCAA?
WarHog38 • 05/10/24 08:24 PM ET
I think they will take the time to construct and organize the replacement
33laszlo99 • 05/10/24 09:35 PM ET
I'm not sure how enthusiastic the SEC will be to take NCSU if they don't
Maroon Baboon • 05/10/24 08:03 PM ET
Kansas > GT, CU or AZ?**
marcbvtgm • 05/13/24 03:23 PM ET
I am one of those Big10 fans that prefers VT over UVA
dayooper • 05/11/24 06:59 AM ET
I still think UVa's appeal is overestimated.**
marcbvtgm • 05/13/24 03:24 PM ET
Awesome. Which school are you a fan/student/alum of?**
Maroon Baboon • 05/11/24 02:30 PM ET
CobbCounty - one of my favorite posters, if not favorite on alignment...
jesuisvtguy • 05/10/24 07:33 PM ET
Thanks for the kind words!**

Good to see your posts. Always informative
PadrosWindup • 05/10/24 05:32 PM ET
Any argument that says the SEC would prefer Virginia Tech over FSU or
wwhokie1 • 05/10/24 03:05 PM ET
This assumes the current status quo will be static.
marcbvtgm • 05/13/24 03:29 PM ET
Of course, there's no guarantee that success will be maintained 10, 20, 30
wwhokie1 • 05/14/24 11:42 PM ET
The state of South Carolina is about 1/2 the size of Va & NC & they have SC
Stech • 05/11/24 01:10 AM ET
Here is an argument...
jesuisvtguy • 05/10/24 07:17 PM ET
Clemson draws great ratings playing garbage teams like BC and Syracuse
ren_hoek • 05/10/24 06:26 PM ET
Maybe that argument can be made for FSU - Florida is a big state and FSU
VPI_1998 • 05/10/24 05:47 PM ET
Clemson has three national championships in football, the two recent ones,
wwhokie1 • 05/10/24 07:03 PM ET
It is not about where you were 40 years ago, nor where you are now...
jesuisvtguy • 05/10/24 07:28 PM ET
The highest compliment from the SEC we could get
Marooned • 05/10/24 02:12 PM ET
Good points.**
Stech • 05/11/24 01:14 AM ET
What did Whit say?
Sunsetunderground • 05/10/24 12:34 PM ET
we need a great turnout in Vanderbilt
DMV Gobbler • 05/10/24 04:55 PM ET
He said Coach Duffy is good at recruiting the Midwest.
hokieball • 05/10/24 01:33 PM ET
I think he was hinting…nothing…
ombandit • 05/13/24 08:17 AM ET
I don't have the specific quote
CobbCountyHokie • 05/10/24 12:52 PM ET
I’ll wait to make an in game wager at mid season
HokieAl • 05/10/24 12:10 PM ET

Baltimore_Hokie • 05/15/24 04:35 PM ET
Do you foresee P2 forming a new tier?
obguthr • 05/10/24 11:50 AM ET
I do - it seems to be heading that way. I would bet that most of those
