Easy, this is a VT board. Other boards however, are talking about

VT being in the B12 if the ACC falls apart. The P2, and the networks, have their football content. could a few more teams in those conferences make it a bit better? Sure they can, but no one is talking about an Ohio state/USC/Michigan - VT game as moving the needle. Nor are they talking about Texas/OU/Bama/Georgia game moving the needle. The teams that come up are Clemson, FSU, and Miami. This is the football needle I'm talking about, not markets or basketball.

When did expansion stop being about football? I missed that if it happened.
Stech • 12/13/23 01:46 PM ET
When the expanders get/got all the football teams they think they need**
VTCALS72 • 12/13/23 04:52 PM ET
Show me the evidence of that please.**
Stech • 12/13/23 05:00 PM ET
Oh come on, there is no "evidence" on this either way
VTCALS72 • 12/13/23 05:14 PM ET
No evidence is the come on, where are you getting the basketball schools
Stech • 12/13/23 05:38 PM ET
Ok, you asked why I am saying that. So, you asked for my opinion.
VTCALS72 • 12/13/23 06:45 PM ET
It’s your opinion, I respect you for saying that. Thanks!**
Stech • 12/13/23 07:28 PM ET
That is what you asked for :-)
VTCALS72 • 12/13/23 08:04 PM ET
I don’t think th ACC GOR can’t be broken any time soon without the majority
Stech • 12/13/23 11:14 PM ET
I agree with this **
HokiesACC2004 • 12/14/23 08:58 AM ET
Evidently, VT isn't that big of prize for whatever reason. Partly due
reestuart • 12/13/23 02:49 PM ET
100% it is UNC, FSU and ND...
jesuisvtguy • 12/13/23 07:20 PM ET
Right now the money is in football ratings!! USC IMHO wanted UCLA , so B1G
Stech • 12/14/23 09:11 AM ET
This reminds me of fivethirtyeight.com analysis of B1G expansion candidates
tarheelblue • 12/13/23 07:32 PM ET
That seems fair, IMO.**
reestuart • 12/14/23 11:10 AM ET
This is totally wrong
Brother Griswold • 12/13/23 05:25 PM ET
I don't remember that at all. They wanted DC and NYC. They certainly
reestuart • 12/13/23 05:55 PM ET
They wanted UMD / UNC / UVa / GT
Brother Griswold • 12/13/23 08:13 PM ET
Your MD buddy is full of it.........
2hhoop3 • 12/13/23 11:28 PM ET
Hah - I said that they exploited UMDs financial status in my post
Brother Griswold • 12/14/23 06:58 AM ET
No you're....
2hhoop3 • 12/14/23 07:59 AM ET
So exactly how did it go down?
Brother Griswold • 12/14/23 08:30 AM ET
I have information.....
2hhoop3 • 12/14/23 09:12 AM ET
We agree that there was never an official
Brother Griswold • 12/14/23 09:31 AM ET
We will just.....
2hhoop3 • 12/14/23 09:57 AM ET
Your first paragraph nailed it
Brother Griswold • 12/14/23 10:44 AM ET
Were taking MD......
2hhoop3 • 12/14/23 11:50 AM ET
Who are you getting this from?**
Stech • 12/13/23 04:59 PM ET
Getting what? **
reestuart • 12/13/23 05:56 PM ET
Your statement that VT evidently isn’t a prize?**
Stech • 12/13/23 06:03 PM ET
well, it's not. It's not like VT is chopped liver, but neither the SEC
reestuart • 12/13/23 06:11 PM ET
Easy, this is a VT board. Other boards however, are talking about ◄
Big12 guy • 12/13/23 06:30 PM ET
The B12 would be the last option.
EDGEMAN • 12/14/23 06:57 AM ET
I agree with this, but we don't make the call, the networks do. **
Big12 guy • 12/14/23 09:11 AM ET
It didn't stop
Pylons • 12/13/23 02:00 PM ET
NCAA 💵 is spread amongst all divisions, it pales in comparison to 🏈 💵,
Stech • 12/13/23 02:32 PM ET
You asked when expansion stopped being about football
Pylons • 12/13/23 02:41 PM ET
It was a sarcastic question, sorry you missed that.**
Stech • 12/13/23 04:58 PM ET
Lol. Yet you responded to others seriously.
Pylons • 12/13/23 10:55 PM ET
Nope it was sarcasm, they got it and you didn’t, but you do know how to
