UConn
HoHumHokie • 04/06/25 04:26 PM ET
UCONN football comes with it. ACC DOES NOT NEED another horrible
ancient alien 2018 • 04/08/25 10:52 PM ET
The only schools that should favor ACC or Big 12 expansion
Tailgate Guru • 04/07/25 10:32 PM ET
I think your 2nd paragraph is kind of spot on
VTCALS72 • 04/10/25 05:35 PM ET
From a numbers standpoint, it’s hard to judge the sweet spot
Tailgate Guru • 04/10/25 10:41 PM ET
You just said that UCF was a growth stock
Marooned • 04/08/25 08:55 PM ET
I did not undercut anything
Tailgate Guru • 04/09/25 12:45 PM ET
Same place where VT to the SEC went**
RiverVT • 04/07/25 10:29 PM ET
This would signal how the ACC feels about their future
The_VT_Rock • 04/07/25 10:28 AM ET
Who doesn't know the ACC is going to lose a few teams?
VTCALS72 • 04/07/25 05:28 PM ET
The ACC is going to wind up a toilet, filled to the brim with left-behinds.**
Baltimore_Hokie • 04/08/25 09:17 AM ET
Agree if you call us left behinds
VTCALS72 • 04/08/25 11:24 AM ET
VT will not be in the ACC in 5-6 years.
Baltimore_Hokie • 04/08/25 11:48 AM ET
That is the heart of where you and I disagree
VTCALS72 • 04/08/25 04:40 PM ET
VT doesn't have to go to the SEC or Big 10.
Baltimore_Hokie • 04/09/25 10:07 AM ET
So you seem to think there is nothing between the current ACC and a league
VTCALS72 • 04/09/25 12:54 PM ET
You don't know that. The ACC may have stumbled into the
Big12 guy • 04/07/25 06:17 PM ET
I think you jut said the same thing I did
VTCALS72 • 04/07/25 09:08 PM ET
Uneven distributions......
2hhoop3 • 04/07/25 06:41 PM ET
I agree that we should be looking for the distribution
Big12 guy • 04/07/25 06:57 PM ET
Your last sentence is a.....
2hhoop3 • 04/07/25 07:01 PM ET
A long shot for sure, but something has to give IMO. **
Big12 guy • 04/07/25 07:03 PM ET
Your last paragraph is quite good. I'm not expecting full disclosure
saret • 04/07/25 06:46 PM ET
I am jaded and cynical.......
2hhoop3 • 04/07/25 06:49 PM ET
I came by my cynicism after years of people lying to me. How did you come
saret • 04/07/25 07:10 PM ET
Same way .......
2hhoop3 • 04/07/25 07:27 PM ET
That is the prudent way to be. You'll be more often correct than incorrect.**
NokieHokie • 04/07/25 06:52 PM ET
I agree it’d indicate where ACC is going, but if they expand 🏀 tournament
Stech • 04/07/25 12:42 PM ET
With uneven distributions, the top teams may want to expand. **
Big12 guy • 04/07/25 03:15 PM ET
Definitely going to be interesting to watch, I wish they would disclose it.
Stech • 04/07/25 05:27 PM ET
Maybe the old school thought of what value a school brings
Big12 guy • 04/07/25 05:53 PM ET
UConn to the ACC would be incredibly stupid, and would demonstrate-
Baltimore_Hokie • 04/07/25 10:16 AM ET
Reality is that the ACC has already been designated as a little p conferenc
VTCALS72 • 04/07/25 05:33 PM ET
Dr. J has already told all members to make sure Football feeds first
Sunsetunderground • 04/07/25 10:44 AM ET
LOL @ "Dr. J"** ◄
Baltimore_Hokie • 04/07/25 12:47 PM ET
How does ESPN feel about UConn to the ACC?
Maroon Baboon • 04/07/25 09:46 AM ET
Only way to save the ACC is with more $$, and they have no way to get it.
HokieNoVA • 04/07/25 06:13 AM ET
Schools that would instantly make more 💵, aren’t coming, winning gets 💵
Stech • 04/07/25 07:57 AM ET
Virginia Tech in the Big East was so much better than as an Independent, I
Stech • 04/06/25 11:30 PM ET
The only school that wants to be independent is ND. Even Almighty Texas
Maroon Baboon • 04/07/25 09:37 AM ET
Being an indie works, if you could charge $ for the VT Network(for example
MrBayAreaHokie • 04/07/25 10:23 AM ET
My point is that joining a better conference helps schools 2 recruit better
Stech • 04/07/25 10:22 AM ET
so many have no clue the life as an independent
1947Sunbowl • 04/07/25 08:27 AM ET
Also improved our recruiting when we joined th ACC, we beat Florida 4 Tyrod
Stech • 04/07/25 09:10 AM ET
The vast majority did not want Yukon in the ACC. It was just rumors.
wwhokie1 • 04/06/25 11:10 PM ET
If UCONN comes in then a football school needs to follow
MrFantastic! • 04/07/25 06:49 AM ET
Drop BC/Wake, then add Uconn/WVU. Works for me.**
HokieNoVA • 04/07/25 01:22 PM ET
UConn would be a great addition to the ACC
Flanker • 04/06/25 08:40 PM ET
It will be a sad day, if the ACC declines to the point that UConn is a
wwhokie1 • 04/07/25 06:19 PM ET
UConn is definitely one of the better options for expansion.
Flanker • 04/08/25 06:12 AM ET
And there in lies the problem of trying to hold on to something that
Big12 guy • 04/06/25 09:01 PM ET
that assumes that the real power leaves all of the ACC, B12 and PAC alone.
VTCALS72 • 04/07/25 09:51 AM ET
I'm thinking that the P2/Networks will want more than 3-4 schools
Maroon Baboon • 04/07/25 03:01 PM ET
Unless any of those schools move the needle where existing
Big12 guy • 04/08/25 12:03 PM ET
Sounds like you are saying no BigXII school will ever go to P2.
Maroon Baboon • 04/08/25 03:03 PM ET
Kinda. The B12 was already picked over by the P2. From
Big12 guy • 04/08/25 03:32 PM ET
I hear you but my opinion remains that the P2 may be larger right now
VTCALS72 • 04/07/25 03:28 PM ET
Why? Because they can.
Maroon Baboon • 04/07/25 04:01 PM ET
wrong. uconn football is a joke and would mean a smaller TV $$ share for
ancient alien 2018 • 04/06/25 08:50 PM ET
The Men won the last two championships. Now here come the women.
HOO86 • 04/06/25 07:02 PM ET
Unfortunately expansion is based on who Notre Dame wants, Jim Dame Phillips
Stech • 04/07/25 09:19 AM ET
No clue who ND would want.
HOO86 • 04/07/25 04:29 PM ET
At this point.....
TerryD • 04/07/25 06:32 PM ET
Yes I would think ND approves of UCONN & maybe even USF, but I doubt FSU &
Stech • 04/07/25 05:31 PM ET
Part of me thinks look to the West
HOO86 • 04/07/25 06:15 PM ET
Would think to lessen travel for Cal & Stanford, San Diego State & Colo St
Stech • 04/07/25 08:10 PM ET
I like those choices also.
HOO86 • 04/07/25 08:28 PM ET
Sounds great until one of your four conference road football games is in
Maroon Baboon • 04/06/25 04:37 PM ET
The Big 12 was also making overtures to Gonzaga
Marooned • 04/06/25 10:03 PM ET
UConn has 3 ACC teams on their schedule this year. **
Big12 guy • 04/06/25 10:19 PM ET
That is one that could agree to reduced media share like Stanford and Cal
HOO86 • 04/06/25 06:58 PM ET
Don't need another mouth to feed in football. **
EDGEMAN • 04/06/25 04:31 PM ET
exactly, espeically with the new allotment of rights to the premium brands**
