Just grab Liberty

Might as well grab Liberty and their 94,000 students and invite while we are at it. Their facilities are as nice as most schools in the ACC. They would be a close rival that would be easy to hate. Seriously, like WVU they would fill up the stadium and they are in the Commonwealth. They have a ton of money as well and would probably work a deal like SMU and take no money for a few years. I am joking, but when you think about it, what exactly are we looking for in an expansion candidate. ** Edited by RonMexicoHokie at 8/9/2023, 2:46:51 PM

Maybe the SEC Should Grab Liberty to Fill that Virginia Footprint Slot

Kansas, Baylor, Iowa State, Oklahoma State, West Virginia, TCU and Cincy**
ColumbusHokie • 08/09/23 04:18 PM ET
Baylor, TCU, Kansas would be a good start.
HokiePail • 08/09/23 05:36 PM ET
OSU has fans as passionate as VT. maybe not the market.
Big12 guy • 08/09/23 05:56 PM ET
OSU is near Tulsa and OK City. Effectively as big a market as Oklahoma.

Oklahoma has about 1M more persons living in their State than Kansas,

Wait until the end of the next B12 contract and add 8 to get to 24.**
4x4hokies • 08/09/23 02:24 PM ET
I doubt you could find one in the Big 12 willing to join the ACC at that
wwhokie1 • 08/09/23 02:57 PM ET
There would still be 6 years on our contract. **
4x4hokies • 08/09/23 03:15 PM ET
Schools would not wait until the contract was up to announce they are going
wwhokie1 • 08/09/23 04:21 PM ET
If they get part of the Big 12 the ACC isn't breaking up.**
HokiePail • 08/09/23 05:39 PM ET
Any schools that had offers from the SEC or Big ten would leave.**
wwhokie1 • 08/09/23 06:30 PM ET
This is the correct answer. The B12 is no longer for sale, but every one

You really think the higher academic schools will take them?

I've seen zero evidence the ACC is trying to be another Ivy League.
