If the ACC would just treat expansion and scheduling for 🏈, like 🏀, they

would be way more successful. Maybe it’s because of the Presidents or maybe it’s because ESPN wants the Conference to stop being a Power Conference and it just wants the football first schools to go to the SEC. Something so obvious to help them as WVU and Cincinnati, and yet, they do absolutely NOTHING!!!

Recent post about the ACC not getting teams in the big dance.

How do you say dmv is big 10
Mercury • 03/14/23 07:54 AM ET
Right now it’s about football, that’s where the 💵 is. SEC rivalry model

Basketball is the next big expansion play. SEC and B1G

ACC not doing all it could to get WVU/Cinn was error.

Too Much Paid for the ACCN

its all hindsight now

Brand-on-brand? How about market-on-market?
33laszlo99 • 03/13/23 08:25 PM ET
Agree on Greg sankey
HokieInTampaFL • 03/13/23 09:43 PM ET
Where has Sankey Put on the Brakes?
WarHog38 • 03/14/23 12:10 AM ET
Why did Sankey feel a need for this? Is more to come?
33laszlo99 • 03/14/23 11:52 AM ET
Sankey is Trying Desperately to Take the Ethical High Road

If you listened to Big Ten de-facto realignment mouthpiece Greg Flugar,

Each of them actually is trying to prevent a lawsuit. Same with FSU.
33laszlo99 • 03/15/23 08:42 PM ET
Two things.
Maroon Baboon • 03/17/23 01:32 AM ET
What does "aggressive" even mean in this current environment?
Maroon Baboon • 03/14/23 01:09 AM ET
True on FSU & Clemson
WarHog38 • 03/14/23 01:41 AM ET
I don't think it's a rivalry model as much as it's just a passion model.
Maroon Baboon • 03/13/23 02:18 PM ET
Now you are debating the chicken or the egg, let me go with the egg for now
Stech • 03/13/23 04:34 PM ET
I think it has moved past football. This is now about conf branding
HokieAl • 03/13/23 01:04 PM ET
B1G is certainly buying that, but not the SEC, the SEC draws #s on rivalry
Stech • 03/13/23 01:39 PM ET
Uhhm Nike earns less from Oregon than other areas?
VTCALS72 • 03/13/23 02:59 PM ET
You are right it's not his income, but branding wise it is big!
Stech • 03/13/23 03:56 PM ET
For Oregon it is a matter of location
HokieAl • 03/13/23 02:12 PM ET
Location not as important than size and robustness for big 10
Mercury • 03/16/23 05:36 PM ET
Conferences with the best football teams and rivalries have the best brand.
Stech • 03/13/23 04:04 PM ET
UO could easily be taken by the BigXII.
Maroon Baboon • 03/13/23 02:23 PM ET
ACC is screwed. Big money is already in control
HokieAl • 03/13/23 10:58 AM ET
I am afraid so. The best and only path for all ACC teams not named
VTCALS72 • 03/13/23 11:02 AM ET
I still don't buy into the "Miami hype" that everyone seems to post here
EDGEMAN • 03/13/23 03:50 PM ET
Miami is a great brand nonetheless
SpeakToDamien • 03/13/23 05:24 PM ET
Miami still gets decent football TV ratings. That gives them some value.
