I'm watching that with great interest, as I'm sure other

fans and schools are. I will find it very interesting just how the ACC distributes that money, especially to the basketball schools that routinely make the tournament, and garner national eyeballs when they play key regular season games in addition to sweet 16 type numbers. Will it work to keep the conference together? It might, if the FSU's are satisfied, and are making the playoffs.

UVA to B10 is a ten times better fit than SEC,Va Tech is closer to AAU
Stech 03/22/26 07:16 PM ET
Not far-fetched, Stech. VT is definitely "qualified" for either P2.
33laszlo99 03/24/26 07:03 PM ET
UVA is better than us in academics and almost all sports. B10 has shown no

VT has made up grounds in Sports

Better in academics? Time to unmask and wear your UVA colors in the open.

Nah. I’m a proud VT grad, but most who’ve lived outside VA/DMV would agree.
Maroon Effect 03/25/26 07:00 PM ET
Sorry, but that's insulting to every Hokie grad that's ever lived.
EDGEMAN 03/26/26 04:56 AM ET
Not meant that way. I went to a lot of schools that had a better counter-

UVA had a good football year, but this is about 🏈 $, and the last 30 years

Let’s be honest. I haven’t seen any report or even speculation from

Media is wrong a lot, you have more faith in them than I do, also I stated
Stech 03/23/26 02:02 PM ET
I do believe VT has an outside chance for the SEC membership.
RandomAsianGuy 03/23/26 06:32 PM ET
Nothing about our recent Academic rankings, your information is years old,
Stech 03/23/26 07:15 PM ET
You are entitled to your view. And VT’s academics is good.
RandomAsianGuy 03/23/26 10:29 PM ET
VA's population is still growing slightly faster than the national average-
Culpeper Hokie 03/24/26 11:10 AM ET
We are competing against states like NC, FL, GA, AZ not the national avg.
RandomAsianGuy 03/24/26 12:06 PM ET
The type of population matters as well. it's not

Fair enough. **
RandomAsianGuy 03/24/26 12:09 PM ET
It all depends on how big the media companies want

Do you have details on how it doesn’t pencil out? If so, please share them.**
