WVU, UCF, USF, and Cincy ALL would have

preferred to be in the ACC IMO. Hands down. Full stop. They will not leave the B12, because the B12 is the conference that stood up for them, and gave them a place in a power conference. it certainly wasn't because the B12 was a better place for them, it's more that the ACC did a PAC12, and didn't want them. Just like BYU and Houston. I hope the B12 takes UConn, as history has a way of repeating itself. Tell me again why UConn isn't in the ACC? If the B12 tirns out to be the 3rd power conference, it will not have been because of luck - or timing - or certainly not because they have football brands - it will be because the ACC got too high and mighty for themselves, and then got stuck with a media contract that may as well have been written in the 1970's. KU and a few others, ICLUDING WVU, would have taken an ACC invite in a heartbeat when the B12 was down to the hatefull 8. Any school in the B12 at that time would have jumped to the PAC 12 as well - but they just didn't pass the smell test because their fans are beer drinking from a can crowd, and by god, Stanford and Cal just couldn't stomach that. SAME with the ACC. Look where Stanford and Cal are now. That should tell you everything you need to know. WVU will never make the cut with the likes of the high and mighty academic ACC - EVER.

UVA & VT have been hooked at the hip for several decades, very interesting

I place my bet on accelerating it.

Last week Kyle Saunders thought it had a 15-20% of passing. **

more like 50% chance imo **

Thanks. Do you have any idea how the ACC/VT leadership feel regarding this
JM397 06/26/26 09:00 AM ET
Let the contraction begin then.**

Feel like the buyout will still go to court or mediation to lower it

Sounds like a lawsuit mess for those schools left behind. **
