SEC Media Days July 15-18, B1G Media Days July 23 - 25

Those are next week & the following week. Pate mentioned the SEC Media Days once as a possibility of news breaking on expansion. All I can see is FSU agreeing to pay big money to exit ACC. My understanding is Clemson cannot afford it.

Doesn't to me either but lots of wishing and hoping in B12 circles

It may not drop at all.

Their value may be in keeping the Big out of the southeast**

The answer to your question is NO.

The answer to your saving the ACC question may reside in where

The reports state $1B + or -. How that money would be used,

How does a PE firm make money on that $1B?**
Atlee Hokie 07/08/24 08:04 PM ET
It depends on the deal. All of the pro sports leagues except the NFL

2hhoop3 07/09/24 10:07 AM ET
Your last sentence is why I think this is a bad idea for the B12.
hokieZ71 07/09/24 09:52 AM ET
If the B12 moves to a PE firm, it will not be because

Big12 guy 07/09/24 11:01 AM ET
Here’s how I could see it going. (Promise, I’m being impartial)
hokieZ71 07/09/24 01:34 PM ET
You make some pretty amazing assumptions there. I won't challenge your

Interesting about paying for buyouts of other schools.
hokieZ71 07/09/24 04:07 PM ET
Why would CAL join the ACC? None
Big12 guy 07/09/24 04:51 PM ET
I mean, Cal is a bad example
