Per FSU Money Perch: FSU, Clemson, UNC and VT have gotten an alert from SEC
Maroon Baboon • 06/29/26 07:06 AM ET
I thought NC State and NC were tied at the hip due to politics. **
HouClone • 07/01/26 02:36 PM ET
Politicians can try to tie them at the hip, but that will not work.
wwhokie1 • 07/02/26 01:52 PM ET
I think they will also look at the game itself: UNC vs. NCSU and UVa vs. VT
Maroon Baboon • 07/05/26 01:34 PM ET
Assuming the info is true at face value. A few comments.
Maroon Baboon • 07/02/26 02:24 AM ET
Yes. This is the best triage to split the baby down the middle. I hate to
TDVick • 07/02/26 06:22 AM ET
As much as the two schools are connected, I can't see UVa doing something
Maroon Baboon • 07/02/26 07:00 AM ET
Sort of agree. I think the VA pols will stuff UVA into the B10 to make
TDVick • 07/02/26 09:28 AM ET
Had we already been an SEC member, adding UVa now would be more attractive
TDVick • 07/02/26 09:15 AM ET
In days past, yes. Nowadays anything goes**
83Hokie • 07/01/26 05:53 PM ET
I could see those 4 to the SEC, I could also see UVA, Miami, GT & ND to B1G

MrFantastic! • 07/01/26 01:59 PM ET
I thought FSU was chalk for the B1G?
mrcaniac • 06/30/26 09:11 PM ET
I think the SEC's interest in FSU is completely dependent on the B1G's
Maroon Baboon • 07/01/26 09:36 AM ET
But I thought the SEC only wanted UVA…..**

I don't see anyone here "running with it" like it's 100% true
RVAHokie05 • 06/30/26 10:32 AM ET
Just posting it is running with it. Discussing it is running with it.
marcbvtgm • 06/30/26 02:43 PM ET
Nah I don't agree, but that's okay. Feel free to continue not visiting.

Big12 guy • 07/02/26 07:50 AM ET
The only difference between UNC and KU is that UNC is from a bigger state.
Maroon Baboon • 07/05/26 12:41 AM ET
Agreed. The NC market is better. UNC has
Big12 guy • 07/05/26 11:15 AM ET
I find it a bit of a headscratcher that FSU and Clemson would prefer SEC
TDVick • 07/02/26 09:23 AM ET
Agree about the B1G and FSU (and perhaps Clemson). But maybe B1G is not

Oh I agree that problems are a lot easier to fix when they are smaller.

Feasible the SEC could attempt to do something preemptive of legislation
