ACC football scheduling since expansion has been a disaster, 1st Swofford &

now Jim Phillips. This expansion that is likely to happen shows how awful we continue to be at scheduling and expanding football. He made it worse when he listened to Miami on the Virginia Tech game, that even when both have struggled pulled good to great ratings. Then he does this, which will reduce the amount of times we play Clemson, FSU and ND. Virginia Tech now having Cal, SMU and Stanford in the rotation is not going to excite fans in Lane or on TV. Yawn!!! That's the exact opposite of making it better. However, Notre Dame is better off, so I am sure he feels good about that. Forget the non-revenue student athletes changing time zones and going across the country for regular season games. So while we agree he got a bad hand, he keeps making it worse.

You guys might as well let go.......
2hhoop3 • 08/24/23 02:26 PM ET
That would untangle the GOR and exit fee issues for ND**
TerryD • 08/24/23 02:08 PM ET
I agree. Time to put up or shut up.
HokieObsession • 08/24/23 01:50 PM ET
ND is going to do neither
TerryD • 08/24/23 02:09 PM ET
They are basically dumping us more so, if they don't add another ACC game.**
Stech • 08/24/23 12:57 PM ET
No, ND is honoring the contract....
TerryD • 08/24/23 02:11 PM ET
You’re honoring the contract, but with more teams, we’ll play you less, FSU
Stech • 08/24/23 02:22 PM ET
Again, the ACC is free to reject expansion
TerryD • 08/24/23 04:58 PM ET
Many of our Presidents think Academics 1st, basketball 2nd & football 3rd.

How do you know.....
2hhoop3 • 08/25/23 10:00 AM ET
I think you’re asking why ESPN didn’t insist on Miami Virginia Tech, I look
Stech • 08/25/23 10:16 AM ET
Whether they should........
2hhoop3 • 08/25/23 10:28 AM ET
So you think he’s doing great? Late to the party on expansion, no big deal.
Stech • 08/25/23 11:04 AM ET
Never said he was......
2hhoop3 • 08/25/23 11:12 AM ET
Emotions are feelings in my case based on his actions, discount them if
Stech • 08/25/23 09:21 PM ET
And tell yourself that........
2hhoop3 • 08/25/23 09:31 PM ET
Okay, if that alternate reality makes u feel good, enjoy being $30 million
Stech • 08/25/23 09:53 PM ET
You continue.......
2hhoop3 • 08/25/23 10:00 PM ET
LOL you are pure emotions, but simply project as though it’s me. You keep
Stech • 08/25/23 10:15 PM ET
We have a contract with them.
Maroon Baboon • 08/24/23 12:42 PM ET
I would be willing to say that ESPN is on borrowed time
BayHokie • 08/24/23 12:32 PM ET
Isn't Disney and ESPN already in the streaming game? Whether you're
Sportn • 08/24/23 08:13 PM ET
