I think we're there...

If Penn State is spending $700 million to renovate their stadium, I have no desire to be a part of that. I just hope VT can be in a league with more interesting games. It doesn't have to be top level but you can get good games at the second tier. ** Edited by Gator Hokie at 6/24/2024, 7:48:27 AM

So you say you want to join a P2 conference. Schools must be able to

No problem with VT dropping down**
CrystalCoveHokie • 06/24/24 12:48 AM ET
We were nobody for a long time.
TomTurkey • 06/24/24 02:36 PM ET
At that price point I would opt out. At some point you just have to say it

I don't disagree but that begs a question
VTCALS72 • 06/24/24 08:08 AM ET
Maybe….
Gator Hokie • 06/24/24 08:51 AM ET
the VTAD should have made a meme coin, followed by a pump and dump
MrBayAreaHokie • 06/24/24 10:12 AM ET
This is why ND is smart. I wish VT could separate football from other sport
HokieAl • 06/23/24 12:38 PM ET
No other program can do what they do **
VaTechHokiesACC • 06/24/24 01:56 AM ET
I'd be all for it if we could also get the TV contract the ND has.**
Maroon Baboon • 06/23/24 12:51 PM ET
That will never happen, unless we get a bunch of Hokies running network...
EDGEMAN • 06/23/24 02:34 PM ET
I would never expect VT or any ACC school to get the ND contract
HokieAl • 06/23/24 03:11 PM ET
Heck, the big blue bloods will never get the ND contract **
VaTechHokiesACC • 06/23/24 09:26 PM ET
FSU is a poverty school.
VPI 1924 • 06/23/24 12:30 PM ET
I would say "double-wide trailer trash" and oil production don't mix !**
FLKEYSHOKIE • 06/23/24 03:42 PM ET
Good points, & it goes further, NCAA Pres said he sees an eventual tier 1.
Stech • 06/23/24 11:43 AM ET
Just ignore comments from the University of Illinois.
pine52x • 06/23/24 05:33 PM ET
Conference Membership Based On What The University Can Afford to Pay
WarHog38 • 06/23/24 04:30 PM ET
Bingo
VPI 1924 • 06/23/24 12:24 PM ET
Tier 1?
LonghornHokie • 06/23/24 05:34 PM ET
A group that elite will not have Auburn
HokieAl • 06/23/24 11:40 PM ET
Add Georgia and make it 16 game schedule like NFL used to be **
OrlandoHokie • 06/23/24 07:57 PM ET
Definitely forgot them. Maybe swap out for UTenn.
LonghornHokie • 06/23/24 08:06 PM ET
I would probably leave UTenn and add 1-3 more schools along with UGA.
VTHokie2000 • 06/23/24 09:12 PM ET
They could play a 15 game schedule and play everyone each year **
OrlandoHokie • 06/23/24 07:43 PM ET
Can't do that. Some of them will end up with losing records.
Truthahn • 06/24/24 03:35 PM ET
Your top 6 for sure.
VPI 1924 • 06/23/24 07:29 PM ET
Swap UW for A&M if you want.
LonghornHokie • 06/23/24 07:48 PM ET
Tier 2 can go back to playing
VPI 1924 • 06/23/24 07:32 PM ET
I'm not sure the federal government and/or the courts will give schools
VTHokie2000 • 06/23/24 09:17 PM ET
In that case it’s Reparations!**
VPI 1924 • 06/24/24 04:50 AM ET
Or an evolution of things since the schools decided to sue the NCAA back in
VTHokie2000 • 06/24/24 08:26 AM ET
That is true and another reason the Big 12 is not really a good option
VTCALS72 • 06/23/24 11:26 AM ET
Any and all ideas of VT going to Big 12 is never a good option.**
VTizzle • 06/23/24 02:23 PM ET
Unless it's the only one left, then they look pretty good. **
Big12 guy • 06/23/24 03:15 PM ET
Even if the only one left, it won't be good.**
VTCALS72 • 06/23/24 05:05 PM ET
I'd rather be wrong than see your school in the AAC. **
Big12 guy • 06/23/24 05:19 PM ET
Some dont fully realize what the ACC would look like if the P2 went to 20.
hokieZ71 • 06/23/24 10:45 PM ET
I think the assumption that the B12 would essentially make 3X
VTCALS72 • 06/24/24 08:22 AM ET
The fact is that the Big 12’s new media rights contract with a significant
WBGV • 06/24/24 11:12 AM ET
No it hasn't
VTCALS72 • 06/24/24 06:03 PM ET
"ESPN’s silence on this issue has been deafening."
Will StewartAdmin • 06/24/24 11:27 AM ET
If ESPN would simply state that they expect to extend the media rights
WBGV • 06/24/24 01:44 PM ET
ESPN's position is that this isn't a public matter
daveinop • 06/25/24 01:49 PM ET
True, I would happily take the Big 12 over that **
VaTechHokiesACC • 06/23/24 10:03 PM ET
Maybe 2-4, at first, but more will come later IMHO, just like ACC Big East
