We didn't hear a peep about the ACC being interested in the West Coast

until all the decent brands were gone from the Pac. Then all of a sudden we are hearing about all these different scenarios, meetings and straw votes to bring in Stanford and Cal? Where was all this action when UW an UO were available? I consider the ACC as we know it to be dead in 2036 (if somehow not sooner). VT should plan accordingly. In the interim, we need to make more money, whatever that might look like, and do what's right for VT. ** Edited by Maroon Baboon at 8/24/2023, 9:05:08 AM
