Same schools winning every year is borring!! I wanted the ACC to catch up,

but the chance is slim to none and slim left town as they say. ESPN wants one conference in the top tier and that is the SEC. I can't blame them, the SEC as they say just cares more when it comes to football. I think Virginia Tech would do great in the SEC or the B!G, but we need to get there sooner rather than later unfortunately if they are making a 100 million and we are making between 30 and 40 million. They will just come in and buy our successful coaching staffs and we will become VCU basketball. We find the coaches, and when they are successful the Power schools come and take them or should I say buy them. That's tough to take over time. That said, I don't think the Virginia schools will be left behind, I worry more about how long it will take before we are in the Power 2!

How long until the bubble bursts? When do the masses lose interest?

This is a sign of the disinterest and the bubble bursting

If the Big XII and ACC have guaranteed seats at the 16-team playoff to come

My only question is who is the "committee" that gives out these bids?
vtka93 07/06/22 09:27 PM ET
didn't see the segment, but I can tell you exactly where VT will be after
LonghornHokie 07/06/22 08:42 PM ET
Colin actually did a good job mapping it out.. I enjoyed that segment **
MaryWashGrad 07/06/22 07:27 PM ET
Yeah. First time I’ve been “ok” with all this, considering VT’s situation.**
hokieZ71 07/06/22 08:22 PM ET
It's not going to burst. Texas Alabama will grow it. Oklahoma Georgia same.

To have high profile games you need a broad market.
ColumbusHokie 07/06/22 07:13 PM ET
I could not agree more about a Commissioner for the Power Conferences in
Stech 07/06/22 08:25 PM ET
Well, without the Hokies playing meaningful games, I won't give a rip if
HokiesBill48 07/06/22 05:44 PM ET
It will hurt me too, if true, but I just don't see the Virginia schools out
Stech 07/06/22 06:38 PM ET
Not sure I agree with that
LittletonColoradoHokie 07/06/22 07:49 PM ET
12th state in population with DC next door, both ESPN & B1G want that but,
Stech 07/06/22 09:59 PM ET
they probably don't and could very well be left out***
vtka93 07/06/22 07:58 PM ET
Agree and hope you are right. Fans of the big programs will be engaged but
