Rumors swirling that aTm wants a new P2 home
Victor Tango • 06/28/24 10:00 AM ET
The magnificent seven, as they're called, should leave the ACC, invite aTm
wwhokie1 • 06/29/24 04:48 PM ET
It would, but until someone is ready to throw money at that group...**
EDGEMAN • 06/29/24 04:54 PM ET
F$U and aTm to B1G. UVA, UNC, VT, and NC State to SEC
obguthr • 06/29/24 08:13 AM ET
I wouldn't write off the Arizona schools, or KU. This
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 09:06 AM ET
No reason to IMHO, even if he is right, 34 in now, & I think 48 the number.
Stech • 06/29/24 01:28 PM ET
Just go to 64, or 100 - then we can include BC. **
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 01:42 PM ET
I think certain schools have no interest in the 🏈🏀 arms race, you
Stech • 06/29/24 02:11 PM ET
And make them VT's 'permanent rival' in perpetuity**
LonghornHokie • 06/29/24 01:55 PM ET
Even a KU fan doesn't want that..........**
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 01:57 PM ET
And Colorado and BYU and perhapd more.**
Maroon Baboon • 06/29/24 12:32 PM ET
Yep**
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 01:24 PM ET
I think this is fairly likely, but
dayooper • 06/29/24 08:44 AM ET
I don't believe Clemson burned bridges like FSU did.
VTCALS72 • 06/29/24 09:13 AM ET
With the amount of money
dayooper • 06/29/24 09:36 AM ET
Not if the "new" ACC paid more
VTCALS72 • 06/29/24 01:52 PM ET
Do you really have........
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 12:54 PM ET
Do you honestly think they sued the ACC
dayooper • 06/29/24 03:16 PM ET
The landscape has changed a lot since the lawsuits were prepared.
VTCALS72 • 06/30/24 07:37 AM ET
Where did I say........
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 03:22 PM ET
This is my position on this matter
dayooper • 06/29/24 04:52 PM ET
Nope .......
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 05:12 PM ET
Yes
dayooper • 06/29/24 05:55 PM ET
He didn't write that you said that, he was asking you a question. He
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 03:48 PM ET
You have enough trouble......
2hhoop3 • 06/29/24 04:48 PM ET
however-it's not like major college universities haven't wasted resources
VPI_1998 • 06/29/24 10:03 AM ET
Suck it up A&M
HokiesACC2004 • 06/29/24 01:27 AM ET
Very interesting, --- For Big 10/Fox it would be a grand slam
1947Sunbowl • 06/28/24 06:38 PM ET
I'm hearing Ohio State to the Sun Belt.
LonghornHokie • 06/28/24 05:25 PM ET
I love the new Sun Belt, SEC Jr., schools with passion for 🏈!!**
Stech • 06/28/24 06:40 PM ET
Agreed. Probably minority, but I'd be ok with that bunch of opponents **
GusDaMan • 06/28/24 10:35 PM ET
Didn't we do the ATM to B1G rumors a month or 2 ago?**
PadrosWindup • 06/28/24 02:33 PM ET
Yup**
EDGEMAN • 06/28/24 03:47 PM ET
It's that time of year. People are ready for football, but nothing to cover
HokieAl • 06/28/24 02:39 PM ET
A&M should have just declared victory and moved on.
Maroon Baboon • 06/28/24 02:21 PM ET
LIttle brother
HokiesACC2004 • 06/29/24 01:28 AM ET

I guess money talks.** ◄
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 07:24 AM ET
Maybe, but I honestly could see how they would stand out more in the B1G
Stech • 06/28/24 02:38 PM ET
Same thing that would supposedly be unique in the SEC would be the same
reestuart • 06/28/24 05:09 PM ET
Maybe, but playing USC-w, Michigan, Ohio State & Oregon, ain’t bad either.**
Stech • 06/28/24 06:38 PM ET
For sure. **
reestuart • 06/29/24 01:16 AM ET
Sure. But the motivations and over-the-top emotions about it are bizarre. **
Maroon Baboon • 06/28/24 03:09 PM ET
Agreed it’s like 2 yr olds fighting for a toy, I wonder where they learned
Stech • 06/28/24 04:29 PM ET
P3 Home....here we go...a person can dream
tcc_dc • 06/28/24 01:57 PM ET
How about the "Techs Us" Conference?
MP4VT2004 • 06/28/24 08:53 PM ET
After the last 10 years,not sure we would even win that conference :/**
tcc_dc • 06/29/24 09:44 AM ET
Florida Polytechnic has a really cool building designed by Calatrava
VPI_1998 • 06/29/24 05:58 AM ET
“If” this happens, it’s neutral, there will be 1 more spot in the SEC.**
Stech • 06/28/24 02:35 PM ET
aTm has turned into the biggest bunch of babies
turkeywinghokie • 06/28/24 12:53 PM ET
They also have some really weird traditions.**
MP4VT2004 • 06/28/24 01:53 PM ET
cringe worthy, to be very nice about it.**
reestuart • 06/28/24 05:03 PM ET
College Station is in the middle of nowhere
Sunsetunderground • 06/28/24 05:29 PM ET
The best atmosphere I have experienced to date for a football game. **
Big12 guy • 06/29/24 07:25 AM ET
Sounds a lot like Blacksburg, but Hokies don't do stuff like...
MP4VT2004 • 06/28/24 05:31 PM ET
Blacksburg has alot more life than College Station
Sunsetunderground • 06/28/24 05:36 PM ET
That's nothing for a Texan. Texans travel A LOT
DallasHokie98 • 06/28/24 09:58 PM ET
christiansburg isn't a happening town. Roanoke isn't one either
Windows NT • 06/28/24 08:21 PM ET
Maybe they need to be in the same conference as FSU. **
Big12 guy • 06/28/24 01:27 PM ET
I'm not sure they've turned into that. I think they've always been that way
reestuart • 06/28/24 01:23 PM ET
They always have**

Can you link to this information? TIA**
Stech • 06/28/24 10:20 AM ET
Same dude that had the Network Horse Trading tweet
Victor Tango • 06/28/24 11:29 AM ET
It's not their pride, it's that they know that Texas will mess up the SEC
Big12 guy • 06/28/24 10:18 AM ET
WADR Texas will not be that powerful in the SEC, way to many powerhouses in
Stech • 06/28/24 10:26 AM ET
Dominate, not initially at least; but make no mistake
Marooned • 06/28/24 11:24 AM ET
Maybe dominate, maybe destroy the SEC. With all their $$$ and arrogance, I
HboroughHokie • 06/28/24 12:54 PM ET
They will lose to much to SEC National Championship teams, they didn't
Stech • 06/28/24 02:53 PM ET
Maybe not on the field but in the background
VTCALS72 • 06/28/24 10:42 AM ET
I agree they will try, but they will have to persuade many others as
