I mean, these are academic institutions, so they—particularly presidents, but AD's too—have to be careful about how they couch this stuff. But at the end of the day, being in the ACC hasn't impacted VT academics materially. And going to the B1G or the SEC wouldn't either.

Probably got more of a bump from MV1's team than joining the ACC -- EDGEMAN Jul 26, 2022 at 11:53 AM ET

True, but even that wasn't as big of a deal as it was made out to be -- Pylons Jul 26, 2022 at 12:13 PM ET
