Anyone can play them

The ACC Presidents have not shown any interest in offering membership to them with the exception of the Louisville addition. If you watch the SMU President's comments on the day SMU was offered membership he talks about the scrutiny they went through over academics.

IMO, I don't think Stanford -Cal addition lasts. Makes no sense long term

It will last until Cal and Stanford have a better option. **

If the ACC loses its power conference status, then wouldn't a better option

If ACC loses its top 4 to 6 programs then a merger with the Big12 is likely**

More teams to fill in will be needed to keep that going.

B1G will always care about academics, and they have that luxury. **

Rumor has it that they are interested in FSU who isn’t a AAU member.

Well, college education is kind of a scam too.**

Lets be blunt, its about the money

If the ACC had taken Cal/Stan, Ore/OSU, Wash/WS it would have worked.

2036 was too long of a commitment for a second tier conference for UO & UW**
Maroon Baboon 12/08/23 05:15 PM ET
Didn't we try that? The ACC basically forced the B10 to take OSU and Wash.

Ducks and the Husseys never would have done that given the options**
