IMHO, academics are readily used cover up their transgressions. Every Big Ten school knows the academic stuff is all BS. I've seen athletes at Ohio State, Penn State, Maryland and even Michigan who couldn't get into junior college if they weren't a gifted athlete.

I think it depends on what the SEC’s next move is. I can -- corvt2000 Aug 05, 2023 at 06:22 PM ET

sorry VT will either be in the SEC or Big 10 or stay with the ACC -- Mercury Aug 05, 2023 at 01:54 PM ET

There’s a difference in being realistic/a homer which is you. -- Wtcarter12 Aug 05, 2023 at 03:10 PM ET

I too think B12 is most likely if the # is 20 -- Hokie12thman Aug 05, 2023 at 11:30 AM ET

VT is most likely headed to the BIG12, I think. Maybe BIG10 if they go 24 -- Whiskeyandfootball Aug 05, 2023 at 10:30 AM ET

Big 12 seems like the fit. Don’t think SEC would take us. -- Wtcarter12 Aug 05, 2023 at 10:42 AM ET

I don't think VT's brand is as nationally thought of as we think. You don't -- HokieToph Aug 05, 2023 at 10:40 AM ET
