Yes! I really hope VT’s admin has a plan here
And not just voting ‘’yes’ for short-term gain or some case that helps the ACC. Only case I can see is that we are confident in a B1G/SEC invite or if that doesn’t work a B12 move. ACC with it most valuable properties replaced with these three schools is really bad viewership-wise.
