FSU won't be #1, maybe 3 or 4 at best. 1. USC 2. LSU 3. Alabama 4. Oregon 5. Oklahoma 6. Georgia 7. Florida St. 8. South Carolina 9. Arkansas 10. Michigan

What do you not understand about board members here agreeing that there is stuff going on behind the scenes between some ACC schools and the Big 12? I don't see anyone typing anything disputing that, it's getting annoying man. Oh, you're all on the bandwagon, cool. You know, if it's getting annoying, just block it like I do to you 90% of the time. I mean I was informed this afternoon that Deloss Dodds had said the B12 was happy with 10 teams, certainly inferring that the B12 wasn't interested in talking to ACC teams. BW:DR Of course he said that. What's he going to say "We're actively talking with FSU and Clemson about taking them from the ACC". I'm not jumping on any bandwagon and I agree teams will probably bolt from the ACC. It just hasn't happened yet and since it hasn't happened yet, there's a chance it might not. The point was you think it's a fact, which it isn't. It's whatever though, you're not going to get it. I'll be waiting for the cocky, sarcastic response. The funny thing is, I'm actually agreeing with you for the most part about the original premise.

It doesn't make any sense. We were just in his Top 12 (High) according to Rivals and we were just listed as his Top 2 along with FSU according to 247Sports. Now, he speaks with his family and we are completely out of it. If this is true about Bailey, then I'd love to hear what happened. Hopefully, it was just some bs tweet with no credibility.

Lol, well that's that. Pretty short-lived.

This is huge news. I'm surprised more people are talking about this. Hopefully, we pick him up after our next football event.

He isn't going anywhere next year since he just signed an extension. Give him another year and see how he does.

Bill, you don't have to get so angry every time someone posts something and doesn't necessarily agree with you, don't take it so personal. I think we can all agree that expansion might happen and FSU and Clemson might go to the B12. Other teams might go to the SEC, BIG whatever. It's just not a fact yet, that's all man. Thanks for those links, seems like that took a lot of time to post.

Now the Texas AD is saying they aren't expanding, unless it's Notre Dame and Texas controls everything. This **** is stupid... I'm not going to pay attention to these rumors/blogs/ESPN/CBS articles anymore until something actually happens (or doesn't). This is my last one. Per Brett: Texas AD not for expanding, but admits courting Notre Dame http://www.cbssports...murphy/19124774

Exactly. Last year the Big 12 was the conference that was going to blow up with teams going everywhere. Yeah, and only eleven teams changed conferences. But the Big 12 didn't blow up, just like the ACC probably isn't going to blow up this year, which is I think his point ... It won't blow up, but more teams will definitely move with the Big 4 conferences getting all the accolades. Still crossing my fingers the ACC loses 4 or more.

It's not very good, but here's the live feed of the game. http://www.bigeast.org/Sports/Baseball/2012BaseballChampionshipCentral.aspx?DB_OEM_ID=7700

Per Greg's chat today: Comment From 561 With the plethora of talented WR's/TE's , do you think the staff might have trouble keeping everyone happy? And is the group happy with their new position coach? Thanks 12:48 Yes, they'll have trouble keeping everyone happy. I've heard nothing but good things about Jerome Pathon, and I think Joe Sloan has helped in the transition while Pathon gets himself immersed in a new offense. It's USF's deepest position -- I have to work not to forget guys there are so many. I know it sounds crazy since he's a stud, but red-shirting him might not be a bad idea, so he has a year to get familiar/comfortable with the system.

Maybe it's because of conference instability, realignment and us not being part of the Big 4 now? Recruits hear about those things and I'm sure recruiters and coaches tell them we're going to be small time now. I hope we can still swing some 4 star players still.

This post is spot on if you want to look at the landscape in a realistic way, without green and gold glasses. Great post and I'd be perfectly happy with this outcome.

If those 2 teams leave, all signs are pointing to Rutgers and UConn to replace them. The only way we get included is if 2 more teams leave for either the Big 12 (Gt Tech, Miami, Va Tech, etc...) or SEC (Va Tech, NCST). We only get in if they lose 4 or more teams. I think we'd get picked before Cincinnati, but that's it. UConn, Rutgers, Louisville are ahead. How great would it be if the rest of the current BE members get invited to the ACC, plus maybe Temple? I wouldn't mind this scenario though, even though it's unlikely::: Cuse BC UConn Rutgers Temple Pitt Cincy UofL Maryland UVA UNC Duke Wake GT USF Miami

Me too, but it seems like the ACC is going to be on the outside looking in, just like the BE.

Thanks for the info. I hope they redshirt him and Price since we are loaded at WR and TE. I can't see them getting a ton a touches anyways, it wold be a waste of a year if they had little impact.

With his dad coaching at USF, many believe Hargreaves is a strong lean to the Bulls. "I can't really comment on that. They can think whatever they want, but just because he coaches there doesn't mean I'm going to go there. I mean, he could leave. A lot of people don't think about that. But I don't really care about what people think," Hargreaves said. Well, that doesn't sound reaffirming.

Per Scout: Woulard has really only played one full season at the position, but has eight offers and is starting to really get the interest of the Florida Gators.

That would be awesome, but I think the only way we even get a look is if Miami is gone too. If FSU and someone else jumps, then they'll just add Uconn and Rutgers. We'd need all hell to break loose.

Who cares. No need to waste a thread and space on the main board for this.

Who is Brian Ethridge? And where did he learn to count? http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=159&f=4582&t=8989517

Per Brian Ethridge. 10 teams have called Big XII to open dialogue. Seven of them coming from the ACC. One from Big East. One independent Retweeted

If the Big 12 were to add FSU and they (ACC) wanted a FL school as a replacement, do any of you think UCF could jump us this time, like we did to them with the Big East?
