They backed us in 2004 - we will and should do the same today

I do not get impression that we have to be in same conference - but not sure what would happen if one gets a Big 12 and one gets an SEC or Big 10 offer. Both still would have a seat at the table but the money differential is huge. I just don’t want either team to get left in a watered down ACC for football - that group will end up in same boat as PAC 12.

VT ends up in the SEC
WBGV • 08/01/23 05:28 PM ET
VT wouldn’t go to the SEC if UVA didn’t have a seat at the table.
hokieZ71 • 08/01/23 05:33 PM ET
P2, if the ACC folds VT & UVA would like to go to the same conference, but

If the ACC did disband....

Something to keep in mind is that the 2 important SEC rivalries are
VTHokie2000 • 08/01/23 08:53 PM ET
That would be incredible for football and basketball, Academically not to
Stech • 08/01/23 07:33 PM ET
No difference to me if VT and UVA go to different conferences...
jesuisvtguy • 08/01/23 07:25 PM ET
Agree.
Stech • 08/01/23 07:34 PM ET
I really hope the 4 VA/NC schools can stick together also.
hokieZ71 • 08/01/23 06:29 PM ET
That's my first choice and especially in the SEC. I think admissions

Hokie12thman • 08/01/23 06:08 PM ET
I think the real backing came from Mark Warner.

Here WGBV, a link for you for once
hokieZ71 • 08/01/23 07:23 PM ET
Mr. Goodwin sounds like a good person and big supporter of his alma mater.**
WBGV • 08/02/23 01:46 AM ET

2hhoop3 • 08/01/23 06:45 PM ET
Think there was a fairly wealthy and influential family more responsible
hokieZ71 • 08/01/23 06:33 PM ET
Goodwin? He was a Tech grad and UVA grad school if I recall.**
Old Line Hokie • 08/01/23 07:06 PM ET
Correct.**
HoakieCup • 08/01/23 09:30 PM ET
Really?
WBGV • 08/01/23 06:03 PM ET
If a choice comes - choice A -one goes Big 12 and one goes to B10
Hokie12thman • 08/01/23 06:34 PM ET
In order of likelihood...
jesuisvtguy • 08/01/23 05:23 PM ET
I’m beginning to think a Big XII/ACC merger may be a possibility.
hokieZ71 • 08/01/23 05:23 PM ET
I tend to agree. This would be a superconference. Several crossover games
JKHokie-RunFor32 • 08/03/23 05:50 PM ET
If this is even in the cards, it would be tough for the SEC and BIG
Big12 guy • 08/02/23 11:21 AM ET
I will abstain. **
