Ultimately we're talking about athletic conferences so it matters

UVA and UNC are on opposite ends for every major ACC decision. And they are nothing alike as schools. UVA continues to move to the left while UNC is shifting towards the center. And public ivy argument makes no sense. SEC has several elite academic school with Vandy, Texas, Texas A&M, Florida and UGA. If UNC wants an academic partner to go to the SEC then Duke is the obvious choice with alums, fans and faculty. In conclusion UVA and UNC aren't joined at the hip. They're not even in the same body.

Flugar is unwatchable. With respect to sister analogy

To your point, UVa was laughing harder than anyone during the UNC academic

I dunno - I don’t know that any school (in current environment) is attached

Flugaur is garbage. He had one contact, hit on the USC/UCLA move, that's it

They can *want* to be together, but when the rubber meets the road

I think you under sell the academic snobbery at those 2 places
VTCALS72 • 05/01/25 01:07 PM ET
I get the snobbery.

Flugaur is a mouthpiece......

He has some B1G contacts obviously. But he has been wrong about Notre Dame
