Odds are what happens will be totally unacceptable to you

There is nothing VT can do to improve ourselves in this at this point. VT and really every team in the ACC is being carried along on the floodwater of Big media power. VT will not "most likely" but they may be in the P2 and the difference is where the flood waters decide to take us. And the only question is whether big media wants enough teams in the P2 to get to VT.

I don't think the BIg XII ever thinks it's safe - they've dealt with

The ACC hasn't been fine for a while. Two signs of illness: ND and Maryland

You and others on this thread have disturbingly low expectations.

Head to head, what does CU offer the SEC relative to VT?

Disney lost 10% of its market cap today
lawhokie • 05/07/24 07:52 PM ET
Could happen, Disney+ and Hulu turned a profit in Q1, but ESPN+ is a $ pit**

VT will end up in the Big12. Not sure where VPI is going.**

Gosh I hope not. Who in that league is an attractive opponent

It shouldn't matter how attractive your opponent is. In this day and

Is that better than sticking with the ACC remnants plus whoever gets added?**

If money is important - then yes - it’s better

Atlee Hokie • 05/08/24 07:02 AM ET
Again I ask, why is SEC supposedly interested in UVA?
cvillehokie92 • 05/07/24 05:44 PM ET
Because they have money and a national "name"
VTCALS72 • 05/08/24 08:15 AM ET
To me , UVA is not interested in the culture that it takes
Hokie12thman • 05/07/24 07:02 PM ET
Totally agree. Great post.**
Poultrygeist • 05/07/24 09:56 PM ET
UVA resembles Columbia U. more than Alabama**
lawhokie • 05/07/24 07:54 PM ET
They ought to petition the Ivy League to join that conference.
RJHokie • 05/07/24 07:40 PM ET
I agree with you on UVA, but that fake classes thing UNC pulled off
Hokie 04 • 05/07/24 06:44 PM ET
They want the 3rd or 4th most popular school in Virginia?**

Depends on what you call fine. The ACC will continue to exist, but will
