espn: "continued momentum for ACC to add stanford, cal & smu." decision
is expected this week. "a source told espn that the details of the potential additions are "only in pencil" but it's trending in the direction of it happening. one of four acc schools that had previously objected to the additions- clemson, fsu, ncsu and unc- needed to change its vote, and that is expected to happen this week."

with this move...those are all good adds to the overall sports strength of the ACC (and also to the academic
strength) and I welcome our Texas and Cali brethren.

...about football a strength when it comes to negotiating television contracts?
My crystal ball says the ACC's next television contract will fall much further behind the P2. That's what happens when a conference it filled with "deadwood," and they keep heaping on more "deadwood." Eventually that heap catches fire, and the conference implodes.

Adding three more programs you really don't want to waste your time playing, while you get fewer chances to play Clemson, F$U and now Miami. Ugh!
Guess that's the real question.

That's not good. Think of SMU as another Miami, but without the swagger and premature backulation.
