If Basketball comes into play it changes the picture some.

It would then make sense for ESPN to push the ACC to add UConn and Temple to the mix to merge in with the ACC and SEC. I would think they would want to lock down the Philly market as much as they can with Temple. They have also proven they can complete in football if they could somehow protect their coaches from being poached. This would be for basketball. There is still room to increase basketball strength in that eastern corridor.

HOO86 • 08/07/23 03:22 PM ET
What kills me is that FSU is partly, if not mostly
corvt2000 • 08/07/23 07:04 PM ET
Not sure about that. They would complain the B1X is getting more money.**
EDGEMAN • 08/07/23 03:40 PM ET

HokieAl • 08/07/23 02:55 PM ET
That was the first thing Jay Bilas said, very interesting to say the least.**
Stech • 08/07/23 02:55 PM ET
Pitt, BC and Syracuse in the SEC?
Millpoint • 08/07/23 02:45 PM ET
SEC schools would fill those stadiums, I was there when BC played Clemson,
Stech • 08/07/23 02:59 PM ET
But would they provide to SEC?
Millpoint • 08/08/23 08:06 PM ET
Those 3 imho will not be included .. Wake will not either.**
MrFantastic! • 08/07/23 03:20 PM ET
I am okay if they go to the B12, but I am also okay if they are in the SEC
Stech • 08/07/23 03:31 PM ET
SMH, you guys don't really think that ESPN will
Big12 guy • 08/07/23 03:37 PM ET
I understand, I don't believe anything until it happens, but it sure is
Stech • 08/07/23 03:39 PM ET
Fair. **
Big12 guy • 08/07/23 03:43 PM ET
29-game round robin schedule. Who says no?**
Maroon Baboon • 08/07/23 03:16 PM ET
Can't imagine they would take every school, only the minimum number
wwhokie1 • 08/07/23 02:54 PM ET
If basketball expands and pays out like football, the northeast schools
