I really hope we don't join the big 12 if such an offer were to come. They didn't want us last time, ucf is there, I'm not interested at all.
Preference for me is obviously to shut the football program down altogether but it doesn't look like they will do that, so I'd say go independent and hope the acc gets decimated into the point of needing us.
There is nothing interesting at all about this conference we are in. I won't go to a single game as long as we are in a conference with rice, Charlotte, utsa, etc. Going independent, even if it means playing uconn and new Mexico every week would at least leave us available to immediately jump if the acc lost 10 teams and considered inviting us.
