A great question was raised below on whether VT would fund the additional scholarships (assuming they are indeed approved). I found the number of sports currently sponsored by each ACC school interesting. Per the charts shown below (thanks Wikipedia), UNC sponsors teams in all 28 of the sports sponsored by the ACC, while Stanford currently has teams in 27 of the sports. On the other end, Georgia Tech only has 17 team and SMU has 16. Would the additional scholarships cause a school to consider cutting sports to pay for the additional scholarships? Just throwing it out there.

He may need to if he wants to increase them for baseball or wrestling -- UpperQuad Jul 25, 2024 at 01:46 PM ET
