It doesn’t make sense for the ACC and especially not for Stanford and Cal.

Getting the last four scraps of the PAC would make more sense but is still suboptimal. The B12 commissioner is making the ACC look like idiots.

Help me understand how it makes sense to add Stanford and Cal
HokieR • 08/08/23 06:02 AM ET
For us or them?
Truthahn • 08/08/23 01:25 PM ET
i think with ACCN as in-market in California it could generate $60M+ /year**

It makes sense if it's football only.
tarheelblue • 08/08/23 10:51 AM ET
So VT can be put into a scheduling pod with them, redeye to the west coast,

Football only could work...all sports no way**

How many P5 level quality teams remain in the footprint of the current ACC?
Tuckahokie • 08/08/23 08:56 AM ET
Adding the best ones available doesn't make it a good move.**
Pylons • 08/08/23 09:04 AM ET
It doesn't. There's no good reason to do it.**

I'm always one to try and figure out how things could work.

Big 12 will wilt
MrFantastic! • 08/08/23 08:02 AM ET
A wilted B12 is better than no B12. They will be a P1 in basketball if
Big12 guy • 08/08/23 08:49 AM ET
Stay? They dont have a tv deal**
HokieJamie • 08/08/23 08:38 AM ET
Why? They seem to have positioned themselves well.
HokieR • 08/08/23 08:17 AM ET
So it seems I agree but
MrFantastic! • 08/08/23 08:31 AM ET
It seems that ESPN will only pay pro rata for P5 schools…

No not espn but more reigning in crazy rights

Please no more private schools. **
RoswellGAHokie • 08/08/23 07:56 AM ET
It makes no sense...
jesuisvtguy • 08/08/23 06:45 AM ET
I woke up thinking about the teams with the least chance to leave the ACC.
hokieZ71 • 08/08/23 06:29 AM ET
Tulane and SMU don't have enough fans. Louisiana is LSU .**
SpeakToDamien • 08/08/23 09:15 AM ET
Is my sarcasm really that dry to everybody?**
hokieZ71 • 08/08/23 09:25 AM ET
You had me until SMU**
Va AandM • 08/08/23 08:53 AM ET
What about the travel for the study and book groups though?
Pylons • 08/08/23 07:27 AM ET
What that’s happening does make sense? Honest question.**
hokieZ71 • 08/08/23 07:38 AM ET
Conferences adding teams that they think enhance their media value?**
Pylons • 08/08/23 07:43 AM ET
I think we need at least six (maybe seven) and go back to some sort of
Tuckahokie • 08/08/23 06:19 AM ET
Divisions sounds like 1990 thinking...
jesuisvtguy • 08/08/23 07:00 AM ET
Well, at some point, the Big Ten and SEC are only going to play each other.
