I'd love to see Syracuse upset them in the Dome this Saturday.

Clemson fans are saying this is the last time that they will ever play at Syracuse. They say 3 or more ACC schools are announcing their departure from the ACC sometime in October. Clemson fans think it's them, FSU and UNC and either Miami or GA Tech. With all that confidence, they don't know if they're going to the B1G or SEC. ;) It would seem that the "insiders" would at least know what conference has approached them or vice versa? If so, lots of exit fee money and TV contract money to distributed among the remaining ACC mmebers. ** Edited by Old Line Hokie at 9/27/2023, 7:36:39 PM

Sappakoff (article's writer) was on CLT sports radio this afternoon

Interesting they voted no for expansion

This article belongs where all "Leaving the ACC" articles belong: Hanging

Would be more interested in reports of where Clemson's going.
HOO86 • 09/27/23 07:47 PM ET
....AND why would the B1G go after Clemson (state of SC) first before
hoodat • 09/28/23 06:13 AM ET
Clemson is nationally watched .**
MrFantastic! • 09/28/23 06:46 AM ET
FSU gets better ratings, is better academically, and is in a bigger state.**
tarheelblue • 09/28/23 10:31 AM ET
The only Top 25 public universities from the Power 5 that aren't ....
Old Line Hokie • 09/28/23 11:24 AM ET
When USF was invited, it was pretty clear AAU membership is a farce.
EDGEMAN • 09/28/23 12:17 PM ET
Wake and BC will rebuild the ACC as WSU and OSU will rebuild the Pac
tarheelblue • 09/28/23 11:49 AM ET
They'd do better to merge with the Big East and go football indy
4x4hokies • 09/28/23 02:10 PM ET
That makes no sense. ND is the only school that benefits from independence.
tarheelblue • 09/28/23 03:59 PM ET
Yep
MrFantastic! • 09/28/23 11:08 AM ET
Football TV ratings, no. But bigger states and better academics, yes.**
tarheelblue • 09/28/23 11:12 AM ET
Same place UVa, VT and the rest of the ACC is going: 1) nowhere until 2036,
ancient alien 2018 • 09/27/23 08:55 PM ET
Thanks - it was a very interesting YouTube video about Clemson and the ACC.
WBGV • 09/27/23 04:41 PM ET
Clemson just doesn't seem like a Big Ten school to me
Millpoint • 09/27/23 02:20 PM ET
The old construct is no longer.
Maroon Baboon • 09/27/23 09:32 PM ET
Oregon is an AAU school, Clemson is not.**
tarheelblue • 09/27/23 11:00 PM ET
Not a deal breaker for the B1G anymore.**
Maroon Baboon • 09/27/23 11:07 PM ET
So far there is no evidence of that.
HOO86 • 09/28/23 09:03 AM ET
And you know this how? Are you close friends with Tony Petitti?**
tarheelblue • 09/27/23 11:52 PM ET
The B1G commissioner said it last year.**
Maroon Baboon • 09/28/23 11:57 AM ET
Do you have a source for that handy?**
tarheelblue • 09/28/23 12:00 PM ET
Warren said it at the what I think was the B1G Media Days IIRC.
Maroon Baboon • 09/28/23 12:33 PM ET
Perhaps the B1G would take Clemson, but they wouldn't be their 1st choice.
tarheelblue • 09/28/23 02:14 PM ET
Conference realignment doesn't care about "good fits".
Old Line Hokie • 09/27/23 03:48 PM ET
B1G and SEC have stuck with type though.
HOO86 • 09/27/23 08:00 PM ET
True, but the B1G always bragged about it being Midwest for decades.
Old Line Hokie • 09/27/23 11:16 PM ET
Jim Delany Changed that for them.
HOO86 • 09/28/23 09:09 AM ET
"Good fit / bad fit" seems a bit of a secondary issue**
33laszlo99 • 09/27/23 02:22 PM ET
Yeah, I think all of that is now out the window.**
reestuart • 09/27/23 05:16 PM ET

I'd love to see Syracuse upset them in the Dome this Saturday. ◄
Old Line Hokie • 09/27/23 07:35 PM ET
It gives Clemson fans.....

Here's to hoping his leak is larger than the Titanic's!!**
ancient alien 2018 • 09/27/23 08:56 PM ET
By all means, consider "sources, motives, timing." But the list goes on...
33laszlo99 • 09/27/23 05:49 PM ET
Keep trolling sport .....
2hhoop3 • 09/27/23 05:51 PM ET
There's no telling. None of it makes sense to me any more. All I can see
reestuart • 09/27/23 05:49 PM ET
It will get worse. NIL and player salaries will require even more cash.
33laszlo99 • 09/27/23 05:59 PM ET
How they do that will be interesting
obguthr • 09/28/23 10:26 AM ET
don't know about you but I'd love to be Duke in FB right now**
