Adding 4-6 Pac 12 members is the best option IMO

Ideally: Washington Oregon Stanford Cal Arizona State Utah This sounds preferable to the "loose partnernship" idea combined with the championship game in Vegas idea being floated. Adding six new members instead of four divides the contract further, but it might be beneficial to add a couple more schools/markets to extend the reach of the conference. I question, though, whether any PAC schools would be willing to sign on to the ACC's GOR when most or all of them have their eyes on getting into the B1G. But if this were to go through, the ACC wouldn't even need to have Notre Dame join as a full member. # 1 : Let them continue to play Stanford every year # 2 : Continue to play five rotating games annually vs the "current" ACC # 3 : Pick up an additional rotating game vs one of Utah/UW/Oregon/Cal/Arizona State The 6 former Pac schools would continue to play each other every year in all sports. I would go so far as to go to 10 conference games in football and even allow the ND games to count in the conference standings (but not allow ND to be eligible for the ACC championship game).

If the ACC is to survive, why not a "NCC"? National Coastal Conference?

That’s still too small and reactionary

The new Big 12 schools offer little to the pot

Agree re adding PAC schools

If schools out there were the answer
clemson81nc 07/10/22 10:34 AM ET
Exactly. Remaking PAC12 schools have less value than the ACC. How is

This is about survival more than payout
HokieAl 07/10/22 11:44 AM ET
And adding PAC schools decreased payout **

Well they had a terrible network
MrBayAreaHokie 07/10/22 10:51 AM ET
I find it all far fetched
Vippie1 07/10/22 10:00 AM ET
If they were to take a couple of PAC schools, that's a good choice. You

Southern Conference disbanded, any trademarks have not been sold or used
