HokieAl • 11/12/25 12:39 PM ET
Longshot but this is a big deal for the ACC
thebluelot • 11/11/25 02:23 PM ET
Not a prayer.**
reestuart • 11/13/25 08:24 AM ET
Don't see that happening...
EDGEMAN • 11/13/25 08:12 AM ET

SMU Pony • 11/11/25 08:22 PM ET
Extreme long shot but I agree with you.**
RandomAsianGuy • 11/11/25 05:30 PM ET

Big12 guy • 11/10/25 01:39 PM ET
How much is the deal worth without Michigan and USC ?
TerryD • 11/10/25 04:49 PM ET
It's not like USC/Michigan are going to leave the Big Ten. **
reestuart • 11/11/25 08:41 AM ET

Michigan doesnt need the big 10. ** ◄
AnotherTechW • 11/12/25 03:37 PM ET
Maybe not, but there is zero chance they'd leave. It's a non-starter.**
reestuart • 11/12/25 04:02 PM ET

That is not how I think it works
TerryD • 11/11/25 05:29 AM ET
OK, but the capital investment is being made with the conference,
Big12 guy • 11/11/25 09:02 AM ET
I wonder if the payouts due to USC and Michigan will simply be held
reestuart • 11/11/25 10:07 AM ET
They could set it up, and just not give them the money up front,
Big12 guy • 11/11/25 10:14 AM ET
Yeah, I don't think those two disagreeing is really a huge deal.
reestuart • 11/11/25 10:40 AM ET
