A breakaway faction of schools from the ACC

could merge with a similar faction from the XII. It could absolutely be viable. It's a radical idea and there is absolutely no smoke, unless you consider the recent Utah rumors. I think we can rule out kicking anyone out. It is most likely just FSU leaving. However, it could be Notre Dame leaving and parking Olympics back in the Big East. That would be huge news.

Josh Pate with a tweet hinting at ACC contraction coming soon**
HartwoodHokie • 06/17/24 02:31 PM ET
Maybe the message is that all this realignment is like water torture. It
wwhokie1 • 06/18/24 10:18 AM ET
Well, if so, it's definitely working 🤣**
Maroon Baboon • 06/18/24 01:26 PM ET
Here's two things I think it could be. 1) FSU and CU to SEC 2) dissolution

A breakaway faction of schools from the ACC ◄
obguthr • 06/18/24 07:10 AM ET
Interesting angle on ND. Wasn't thinking of that.**
Maroon Baboon • 06/18/24 10:26 AM ET
That might include a Big Ten scheduling deal for football
TerryD • 06/18/24 12:46 PM ET
I don't understand it. So I disagree until proven otherwise
SpeakToDamien • 06/18/24 12:04 AM ET
maybe there is a settlement coming. Or FSU just says F it and gives notice
HokieAl • 06/18/24 12:08 AM ET
Pate Has a Lot More Credibility Than Those YouTube Click-Bait Practitioners
WarHog38 • 06/17/24 09:43 PM ET
Pate is well connected and obviously knows something is about to go down.
WBGV • 06/17/24 11:11 PM ET
Very plugged in FSU buddy says..
kt22hokie • 06/17/24 08:28 PM ET
Only 10+ more years of the ACC collecting F$U's TV revenue.**
EDGEMAN • 06/18/24 08:46 AM ET
very interesting tactic
DMV Gobbler • 06/18/24 07:05 AM ET
Not sure how that works...
SMU Pony • 06/17/24 09:41 PM ET
Yes, with negotiated exit fee ***
INSIDE99 • 06/17/24 08:37 PM ET
Pate already knows
INSIDE99 • 06/17/24 07:29 PM ET
WTH was that? **
ombandit • 06/17/24 05:53 PM ET
Scene from the movie Jurassic Park.
hokieZ71 • 06/17/24 06:45 PM ET
Thx for clearing that up, I had mistakenly decided it was Battle of Verdun**
ombandit • 06/17/24 07:23 PM ET
If there is an unscheduled meeting being called, it could be...
obguthr • 06/17/24 05:10 PM ET
Probably an official announcement by FSU and/or CU
Victor Tango • 06/17/24 06:00 PM ET
Maybe he means the ACC office is being attacked by dinosaurs**
LonghornHokie • 06/17/24 03:04 PM ET
Our problem has been dinosaurs working at the ACC offices for years.**
VTDante • 06/17/24 03:48 PM ET
Nothing to worry about there...**
EDGEMAN • 06/17/24 03:23 PM ET
Josh sometimes misses (ex May Chaos), but he's more credible
VT757to276 • 06/17/24 02:55 PM ET
Glass half full or half empty???
mjfhokie • 06/17/24 02:55 PM ET
could be interpreted to cover almost anything.**
wwhokie1 • 06/17/24 05:56 PM ET
How do you see contraction? **
Sunsetunderground • 06/17/24 02:50 PM ET
He followed it up with a contraction confirmation**
Femoyer Hokie • 06/17/24 04:14 PM ET
I see it as y’all
HokieAl • 06/17/24 03:03 PM ET
Incomplete list. Missing "you'ins". Grundy folk use that term a lot.**
Nortazhokie • 06/17/24 06:14 PM ET
And Yous. Just add the "s" for plural. Very common is some places.
wwhokie1 • 06/18/24 10:12 AM ET
I grew up in Maryland (DC suburbs) and it was always you guys,
Femoyer Hokie • 06/17/24 04:34 PM ET
It's missing yous, yoots, and yinz**
LonghornHokie • 06/17/24 04:05 PM ET
It’s also missing all y’all.**
hokieball • 06/17/24 09:25 PM ET
Y'all might want to look again**
LonghornHokie • 06/17/24 11:44 PM ET
How many votes are needed? **
Sunsetunderground • 06/17/24 03:13 PM ET
Probably all y'all needed :)**
HokieAl • 06/17/24 05:16 PM ET
Not familiar with him
cvillehokie92 • 06/17/24 02:43 PM ET
He's more of a commentator than a reporter. But his commentary if great.
Maroon Baboon • 06/17/24 05:05 PM ET
I don't know how credible his sources are
