Still no word on ACC expansion. Reports that FSU may leave for 2025 season

Announce soon? Raising private equity to pay off ACC. I am skeptical. Most interesting reporting is that FSU, Clemson and couple of others have communicated with both B10 and SEC about leaving ACC joining. No one knows what type of response they got? Rumors all over the map that B10 would take 2 from east Miami and either UNC or UVA. Some reports that B10 not interested in FSU & Clemson, others that they are same with SEC. Who knows? One would think FOX would want them and ESPN would want to keep. Interesting that NCSU and UNC are sticking together on Calford vote? Do we believe reports that their 11 votes to add calford? Are VT UVA on board? Wonder who else has talked to B10 and/or SEC thru 3rd parties? VT? Uva? UNC? NCSU? Very tense time, I just do not see how all this is sustainable for Olympic sports in B12 and B10 long term. How can FSU break the GOR anytime soon and not be financially strapped for years, paying off debt?

FSU is being accused of being all bluster and no action. We will see.

FSU has to have a place to go before they leave. SEC doesn't need them and

The B1G still has that pesky AAU membership criteria. F$U and Clemson

There is no AAU criteria. Never has been.

So AAU membership has just been a coincidence? Not according to this

If Fox wants a school, school suits just go along.

I hope they leave. VT could use the extra cash**

This just feels like a rumor to destabilize the ACC.
