Maybe not on the field but in the background

they absolutely will try to dictate to the SEC, Texas and UNC will do the same wherever they go. Both think they are anointed to have their way.

Rumors swirling that aTm wants a new P2 home
Victor Tango • 06/28/24 10:00 AM ET
The magnificent seven, as they're called, should leave the ACC, invite aTm
wwhokie1 • 06/29/24 04:48 PM ET
It would, but until someone is ready to throw money at that group...**
EDGEMAN • 06/29/24 04:54 PM ET
F$U and aTm to B1G. UVA, UNC, VT, and NC State to SEC
obguthr • 06/29/24 08:13 AM ET
I wouldn't write off the Arizona schools, or KU. This
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 09:06 AM ET
No reason to IMHO, even if he is right, 34 in now, & I think 48 the number.
Stech • 06/29/24 01:28 PM ET
Just go to 64, or 100 - then we can include BC. **
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 01:42 PM ET
I think certain schools have no interest in the 🏈🏀 arms race, you
Stech • 06/29/24 02:11 PM ET
And make them VT's 'permanent rival' in perpetuity**
LonghornHokie • 06/29/24 01:55 PM ET
Even a KU fan doesn't want that..........**
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 01:57 PM ET
And Colorado and BYU and perhapd more.**
Maroon Baboon • 06/29/24 12:32 PM ET
Yep**
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 01:24 PM ET
I think this is fairly likely, but
dayooper • 06/29/24 08:44 AM ET
I don't believe Clemson burned bridges like FSU did.
VTCALS72 • 06/29/24 09:13 AM ET
With the amount of money
dayooper • 06/29/24 09:36 AM ET
Not if the "new" ACC paid more
VTCALS72 • 06/29/24 01:52 PM ET
Do you really have........
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 12:54 PM ET
Do you honestly think they sued the ACC
dayooper • 06/29/24 03:16 PM ET
The landscape has changed a lot since the lawsuits were prepared.
VTCALS72 • 06/30/24 07:37 AM ET
Where did I say........
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 03:22 PM ET
This is my position on this matter
dayooper • 06/29/24 04:52 PM ET
Nope .......
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 05:12 PM ET
Yes
dayooper • 06/29/24 05:55 PM ET
He didn't write that you said that, he was asking you a question. He

You have enough trouble......
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 04:48 PM ET
however-it's not like major college universities haven't wasted resources
VPI_1998 • 06/29/24 10:03 AM ET
Suck it up A&M
HokiesACC2004 • 06/29/24 01:27 AM ET
Very interesting, --- For Big 10/Fox it would be a grand slam
1947Sunbowl • 06/28/24 06:38 PM ET
I'm hearing Ohio State to the Sun Belt.
LonghornHokie • 06/28/24 05:25 PM ET
I love the new Sun Belt, SEC Jr., schools with passion for 🏈!!**
Stech • 06/28/24 06:40 PM ET
Agreed. Probably minority, but I'd be ok with that bunch of opponents **
GusDaMan • 06/28/24 10:35 PM ET
Didn't we do the ATM to B1G rumors a month or 2 ago?**
PadrosWindup • 06/28/24 02:33 PM ET
Yup**
EDGEMAN • 06/28/24 03:47 PM ET
It's that time of year. People are ready for football, but nothing to cover
HokieAl • 06/28/24 02:39 PM ET
A&M should have just declared victory and moved on.
Maroon Baboon • 06/28/24 02:21 PM ET
LIttle brother

Big12 guy • 06/29/24 07:24 AM ET
Maybe, but I honestly could see how they would stand out more in the B1G
Stech • 06/28/24 02:38 PM ET
Same thing that would supposedly be unique in the SEC would be the same
reestuart • 06/28/24 05:09 PM ET
Maybe, but playing USC-w, Michigan, Ohio State & Oregon, ain’t bad either.**
Stech • 06/28/24 06:38 PM ET
For sure. **
reestuart • 06/29/24 01:16 AM ET
Sure. But the motivations and over-the-top emotions about it are bizarre. **
Maroon Baboon • 06/28/24 03:09 PM ET
Agreed it’s like 2 yr olds fighting for a toy, I wonder where they learned
Stech • 06/28/24 04:29 PM ET

tcc_dc • 06/28/24 01:57 PM ET
How about the "Techs Us" Conference?
MP4VT2004 • 06/28/24 08:53 PM ET
After the last 10 years,not sure we would even win that conference :/**

Florida Polytechnic has a really cool building designed by Calatrava

“If” this happens, it’s neutral, there will be 1 more spot in the SEC.**
Stech • 06/28/24 02:35 PM ET
aTm has turned into the biggest bunch of babies
turkeywinghokie • 06/28/24 12:53 PM ET
They also have some really weird traditions.**
MP4VT2004 • 06/28/24 01:53 PM ET
cringe worthy, to be very nice about it.**

Sounds a lot like Blacksburg, but Hokies don't do stuff like...
MP4VT2004 • 06/28/24 05:31 PM ET
Blacksburg has alot more life than College Station
Sunsetunderground • 06/28/24 05:36 PM ET
That's nothing for a Texan. Texans travel A LOT
DallasHokie98 • 06/28/24 09:58 PM ET
christiansburg isn't a happening town. Roanoke isn't one either
Windows NT • 06/28/24 08:21 PM ET
Maybe they need to be in the same conference as FSU. **
Big12 guy • 06/28/24 01:27 PM ET
I'm not sure they've turned into that. I think they've always been that way

Same dude that had the Network Horse Trading tweet
Victor Tango • 06/28/24 11:29 AM ET
It's not their pride, it's that they know that Texas will mess up the SEC
Big12 guy • 06/28/24 10:18 AM ET
WADR Texas will not be that powerful in the SEC, way to many powerhouses in
Stech • 06/28/24 10:26 AM ET
Dominate, not initially at least; but make no mistake
