Keep in mind that even with that pedigree, there has been no interest from the Big10, except for a few news stories, and boards like these. The ACC might lose some of their top brands, but it's my opinion that the ACC will be and upper middle class conference like the Big12. It's enough to make a run in the football playoffs in the near future, and enough to win it. The top brands in the Big10 and SEC already had the recruiting edge, yet there are a lot of players out there. They may have fat checks, but they do not have a monopoly now the playoffs have expanded.
