Nebraska AD Trev Alberts on future changes
Nebraska AD Trev Alberts tells
@Amie_Just
there will be more expansion. “History is unkind to conferences that have not had the courage to expand. I don’t believe it’s done. It’s never been done. It’s more likely than not that there will be continued periods of angst. I believe that the next go-around - that’s my basic conclusion - will be far more disruptive than anything we’re currently engaged in. We need to prepare ourselves mentally for that”

But I guess that's not enough, apparently we should always expand, or we will look back and regret it. Fortunately for the ACC there's a lot of G5 schools that would love ACC membership. So let's expand. Or maybe expansion isn't always such a good idea.

My response to Alberts.
1. Expansion for expansion's sake isn't a winner. There's good expansion and bad expansion. And this can be measured quite a few different ways.
2. Alberts doesn't mention the "expanded for" schools and the lack of winning. Nebraska had been awful since joining the Big Ten. Miami has underperformed quite miserable, too. Of all the schools that left one conference to join another (P5) conference, only one school has won the new conference in their first year 🦃.

Please stop naming conferences based on the current number of teams, thank you.
