SI reporting FSU AD hinting Big 10 Move
Sunsetunderground • 04/27/24 01:14 PM ET
I hope they will like Madison, WI and Minnesota in November**
Tuckahokie • 04/29/24 11:44 AM ET
Southern teams traveling north usually brick games in cold weather. Miami
TDVick • 04/30/24 03:20 PM ET
Sadly, FSU vs ACC games this year will all get huge TV ratings.
Truthahn • 04/29/24 11:21 AM ET
wish ACCN and when they travel to ACC cities, they get no hospitality
DMV Gobbler • 04/29/24 04:38 PM ET
Or…ACC teams could be fired up to beat them. Or, who knows what will happen
Stech • 04/29/24 09:38 PM ET
Financial question- how accretive can adding FSU really be...?
Vippie1 • 04/29/24 11:02 AM ET
My view is that Miami is being overlooked. Think about the
TDVick • 05/02/24 03:26 PM ET
A part of it has to be defensive
VT Pops • 04/29/24 10:48 PM ET
At this point in time, it is no longer about the money. They have that.
pine52x • 04/29/24 12:36 PM ET
Exactly. The B1G is building an empire. The SEC is being forced to respond**
33laszlo99 • 04/29/24 04:10 PM ET
I Have Seen Sankey Address SEC Further Expansion Three Times
WarHog38 • 04/30/24 01:04 AM ET
Not so long ago, Sankey declared that he was satisfied at 16, and did not
33laszlo99 • 04/30/24 07:17 AM ET
Probably holding his cards close to his chest.
EDGEMAN • 04/30/24 06:46 AM ET
Keep in mind, the TX OU move to the SEC was not announced,
Big12 guy • 04/30/24 10:38 AM ET
And Sankey was on the CFP committee while trying to poach TX and OU
HouClone • 04/30/24 01:37 PM ET
Yep. This idea that Sankey isn't a Snakey is misplaced. **
Big12 guy • 04/30/24 01:44 PM ET
I believe both have responded to each other **
VaTechHokiesACC • 04/29/24 11:39 PM ET
Or anyone else for that matter. **
Big12 guy • 04/29/24 11:18 AM ET
Just proof that FSU AD is hanging out on this board too much. 🤣🤣**
Stech • 04/29/24 08:09 AM ET
Pay in full and be gone **
VaTechHokiesACC • 04/28/24 11:09 PM ET
They will owe their media rights for the next decade
EDGEMAN • 04/29/24 03:41 AM ET
Talk about expensive what if the amount FSU must pay is
VTCALS72 • 04/29/24 09:28 AM ET
It depends on how you determine the $5 million
obguthr • 04/29/24 10:58 AM ET
Isn't that the whole purpose of the GOR?
VTCALS72 • 04/29/24 12:42 PM ET
LMAO FSU AD's "Big News" is always like a fart in the wind. Nothing
ancient alien 2018 • 04/28/24 09:19 PM ET
I agree, it get's old
VaTechHokiesACC • 04/28/24 11:17 PM ET
Reminds me of the NY Post with the same headline once a week: TITANIC

A Sign that FSU is Going B1G
WarHog38 • 04/29/24 01:53 AM ET
If the SEC, truly wants schools that care more, they will take VT &NCSU 4🏈
Stech • 05/01/24 07:53 PM ET
See Lots of Viewpoints With Several Hours of YouTube Surfing on Expansion
WarHog38 • 05/02/24 10:34 PM ET
Hearing a lot of the same things but Clemson, it’s about 1/2 the eyeballs
Stech • 05/03/24 09:03 AM ET
Much ado about nothing
INSIDE99 • 04/29/24 01:32 AM ET
I'm not sure what constitutes tampering, but the B1G seem like it is doing
Maroon Baboon • 04/28/24 06:26 PM ET
USC wasn't tampering
mrcaniac • 04/28/24 11:05 PM ET
Yeah, I don't see how tampering comes into play. The schools can talk
reestuart • 04/29/24 11:03 AM ET
That is true, but then the B1G/SEC open themselves up to liability
mrcaniac • 04/29/24 11:18 AM ET
It will take a lot more......
2hhoop3 • 04/29/24 12:12 PM ET
I imagine most communications are fairly passive/vague. A bunch of
reestuart • 04/29/24 11:43 AM ET
UVA did. Don't know about UNC.
HOO86 • 04/28/24 08:08 PM ET
Have always heard that B1G wanted UNC and UVa
Millpoint • 04/28/24 09:46 PM ET
Very doubtful they settled....
2hhoop3 • 04/28/24 09:54 PM ET
You talking about......
2hhoop3 • 04/28/24 04:40 PM ET
The "article" is a whole lotta nothing. **
Will StewartAdmin • 04/28/24 05:55 PM ET
FSU wouldn't be in this position if they hadn't taken the easy path (ACC)
Hokie 04 • 04/27/24 06:41 PM ET
Definitely Mediocrity for FSU in the SEC
WarHog38 • 04/29/24 06:41 PM ET
ACC always has/is/will be bad football
INSIDE99 • 04/29/24 07:21 PM ET
Whacked comment **
HOKIEGOBBLE • 04/30/24 04:33 AM ET
Success because the ACC is bad football
INSIDE99 • 04/30/24 01:03 PM ET
I agree, FSU was using the ACC, and the ACC really didnt care
DMV Gobbler • 04/28/24 08:13 AM ET
FSU was chasing the $$$ when they joined the ACC
mrcaniac • 04/27/24 11:43 PM ET
I remember the saying down in North Florida at the time...
EDGEMAN • 04/28/24 07:11 AM ET
ACC poorly managed - nepotism
INSIDE99 • 04/28/24 12:43 AM ET
North Carolina makes sense to host championship games
mrcaniac • 04/28/24 05:07 PM ET
Charlotte is easy to get to.
HOO86 • 04/28/24 08:37 PM ET
RDU has a lot of direct flights also
mrcaniac • 04/28/24 10:46 PM ET
What needs to be answered. Did everyone know all along about the ESPN
TDVick • 04/28/24 04:46 PM ET
Just a guess but maybe "look ins" are a basic part of

ESPN giant being cut down

That is a good answer.....

ACC Payouts since 1992
INSIDE99 • 04/29/24 01:24 PM ET
You (falsely IMHO) assume that the main reason the ACC has not
VTCALS72 • 04/29/24 05:17 PM ET
Networks will decide the ACC fate
INSIDE99 • 04/29/24 05:40 PM ET
GOR is what has held up what big media wants.
VTCALS72 • 04/29/24 05:57 PM ET
WRT ESPN's intent, it is possible the ACC made assumptions about ESPN's
VTHokie2000 • 05/01/24 06:28 PM ET
Why waste your time?.....
2hhoop3 • 04/28/24 04:29 PM ET
FSU is always talking...
Old Line Hokie • 04/27/24 05:49 PM ET
I wonder if that point, the ACCN expands and includes B12 teams. I
Big12 guy • 04/27/24 06:21 PM ET
That has possibilities
VTCALS72 • 04/28/24 11:34 AM ET
At the very least, a consolidation of the media potential. The ACC and B12
Big12 guy • 04/28/24 11:58 AM ET
Agree pretty much but whereas I do agree
VTCALS72 • 04/29/24 12:55 PM ET
A good conversation - DMV market
INSIDE99 • 04/29/24 02:44 PM ET
If you leave the "V" out of the DMV I would agree
VTCALS72 • 04/29/24 04:58 PM ET
Not a surprise. But interesting that they are now making public statements.

I'm not sure the Pre-Spring Game formerly known as the Orange Bowl proved
VTHokie2000 • 04/27/24 08:41 PM ET
FSU just had 10 NFL Draft picks - not a single one of them

Blah blah blah!!! Nothing piled on to nothing, again.** ◄
ancient alien 2018 • 04/28/24 09:21 PM ET
Imagine if one of those FSU draft picks would have blown out his knee or
Maroon Baboon • 04/27/24 10:48 PM ET
With a few of those......
2hhoop3 • 04/28/24 06:05 PM ET
I give next to zero attention to the Orange Bowl game. The "consolation"
Maroon Baboon • 04/27/24 07:49 PM ET
That is the problem.
Old Line Hokie • 04/27/24 08:34 PM ET
FSU didn’t quit. I don’t know how this narrative is still going
HokieAl • 04/28/24 12:29 PM ET
Perhaps ESPN and SEC put pressure on UGa to go all out to beat FSU to
Maroon Baboon • 04/29/24 11:58 AM ET
It is the difference.....
2hhoop3 • 04/28/24 12:55 PM ET
Yep, UGA had 1 opt out, FSU cried, UGA went to Miami to whip that ass**
BROman Hokie • 04/28/24 02:39 PM ET
Welp. It was a once in lifetime thing that will never happen again.
Maroon Baboon • 04/27/24 10:32 PM ET
Spot on......
2hhoop3 • 04/27/24 06:43 PM ET
No matter what happens in the BIG, or anywhere else in college
Big12 guy • 04/27/24 04:14 PM ET
That...and what if A&M decides to bolt for the B1G? Double trouble.
Maroon Baboon • 04/27/24 05:31 PM ET
Disagree....the BIG can add everyone not in the SEC and they will still be

Maroon Baboon • 04/28/24 01:43 PM ET
Swanky and the SEC deserve everything they get from inviting Texas. I
Big12 guy • 04/27/24 05:35 PM ET
Truth!
RJHokie • 04/27/24 05:27 PM ET
But, but...AAU! 🙄🤣**
Pylons • 04/27/24 03:36 PM ET
I'm sure FSU will get their AAU call-up any day now.**
33laszlo99 • 04/27/24 05:22 PM ET
So did the B1G unofficial invite include a full share of revenue on Day 1?
Marooned • 04/27/24 02:31 PM ET
Yeah, they would be in the bottom half of the new Big10
dayooper • 04/27/24 11:55 PM ET
Academics went out the window WRT college football years ago, B1G and ACC
VPI_1998 • 04/28/24 05:27 AM ET
That would be very attractive for FSU as they would have a much better
VT ChemE 1986 • 04/27/24 02:16 PM ET
So what happens when the Big FSU finds they can make no inroads against
VTCALS72 • 04/29/24 06:06 PM ET
IMHO if it was painful to ESPN, they would have promoted them 4 playoff bid
Stech • 04/28/24 08:01 AM ET
Time to have their next football game in Blacksburg!
EDGEMAN • 04/28/24 06:11 AM ET
Agree - FSU to B1G makes much more sense for both FSU and B1G than FSU to

That would be very nice !**
FLKEYSHOKIE • 04/27/24 10:48 PM ET
