Sands is from the B1G, Weaver from B1G, Babcock came from B1G country, now

I think they would accept a bid from whomever offered first. However I believe actions speak louder than words, and the Academic actions are a heavy lean to the B1G if both came on the same day, which will probably never happen. PS JMU chose the highest player (conference) available in the draft, and Virginia Tech would do the same thing.

No. Miami seems like an ideal fit for the Big Ten if/when they expand

Miami and FSU to get the B1G to 20 is a slam dunk**

I believe all that is possible, but I know SEC show told them to call twice

I do think you are right about they prefer to go to the Big Ten. However,

Do you think the Sun Belt is a higher rated conference than C-USA or MAC?
VTHokie2000 • 06/25/25 09:07 AM ET
Yes I think the Sun Belt is a lower level SEC, I also think travel plays a
Stech • 06/25/25 09:12 AM ET
The Sun Belt may very well be a lower level SEC now. Would you say the MAC

Ya, those six, plus most of the other 27 would have to agree. Good luck.
Truthahn • 06/25/25 09:06 AM ET
I never saw Miami to the B1G as imminent anyway.

I thought the B1X encouraged the AAU to bring in Miami (& ND)...

You are right. But ASU got AAU last time as well and they were basically
