The P2 doesn't need everyone they currently have.

But the VA/NC (include DMV)is really the only place in America of significant size that the P2 is not in. Compare that to the B12 with only Denver and Phoenix. And by that I mean areas where they are the only game in town. Some will say B12 in Texas but the best B12 team will never be any better than #3 in that market area. And maybe even OU sneaks in at #3.

Does UVA even want to join the SEC?

UNC and NC State will go together, period. This has been reported here in

The P2 keeps vacillating between states/schools to keep us all
saret 02/12/25 05:22 PM ET
Almost spot on. The P2 has already won this war
VTCALS72 02/12/25 05:34 PM ET
I’m worried that we overestimate the importance of VA NC DC

It's clear as day that UNC is definitely going to leave-

The question is when 2031 (6 yrs) or 2036 (11 yrs), a lot will happen in 6
Stech 02/16/25 06:49 AM ET
Could be but if we are in the trash bin, the B12 will be right there too.**
VTCALS72 02/12/25 05:01 PM ET
No. The "trash bin" will be-

You're making some pretty big leaps...
jesuisvtguy 02/12/25 08:35 PM ET
Wow, I didn't realize WF, BC, and Duke weren't already ACC members.
Baltimore_Hokie 02/13/25 10:17 AM ET
Can't understand that is what you want.
VTCALS72 02/12/25 07:04 PM ET
I don't hate the ACC. I just recognize that the ACC is broken, and that-
Baltimore_Hokie 02/13/25 10:14 AM ET
And that is one of the main reasons your conference is having
Big12 guy 02/12/25 07:47 PM ET
Not exactly true.
HOO86 02/15/25 09:06 PM ET
WVI and Cincy was a no brainer for the ACC in my opinion, but at the time,
Big12 guy 02/16/25 08:23 AM ET
West Virginia is in significant decline
SMU Pony 02/13/25 12:44 AM ET
WVU makes sense for the ACC because of rivalries.
HOO86 02/15/25 09:18 PM ET
No doubt. Louisville always made more sense to me, but as you know,
Big12 guy 02/13/25 07:23 AM ET
The issue is that no big12 school will increase the value of the ACC...
jesuisvtguy 02/12/25 08:38 PM ET
Oh please! You're starting to sound like Boston sports fans.
saret 02/12/25 08:14 PM ET
Haha, Boston fans are the worst. My apologies. **

ACC is in extra trouble if any of the Georgia tax bill type stuff passes
HokieAl 02/12/25 02:54 PM ET
Of course this is state taxes only.**
VTCALS72 02/12/25 05:02 PM ET
TX, TN, FL don't have state income taxes so they're trying to level

True but my property tax here in Texas is humongous. Of course, a college

We are all in a race to the bottom.
tarheelblue 02/12/25 04:41 PM ET
I think this has already passed and is in effect in Alabama.**
Baltimore_Hokie 02/12/25 03:42 PM ET
and Alabama just proposed the same bill today
HokieAl 02/12/25 03:17 PM ET
Crazy that some representative or group even proposed... **

ESPN has to be very careful about their next steps
HokieAl 02/12/25 01:01 PM ET
UNC is the only school that can choose their conference
Sunsetunderground 02/12/25 12:22 PM ET
I don't think there is any scenario where the B1G would take NC State
tarheelblue 02/12/25 02:15 PM ET
My guess is the state politicians will make a deal
HokieAl 02/12/25 09:22 PM ET
I imagine NC pols will be protective of the ACC
