Or money If they raise such a question, maybe they are preparing the public for change. Or maybe they're just interested in public opinion on the issue.

They planning on paying their exit fees to assist them to move laterally for similar or less money? Gonna play the sentimental card with the former Big East schools to come back and play their former Big East brethren that left them high and dry and started all this BS in the first place? Unless somebody else starts swiping Big 12 schools (a la Kansas to B1G or something similar), I don't see any way that the ACC is in a position to poach anybody from the Big 12 Do they really need to lure someone away?

I'm referring to the guy who said WVU/Cincy/UCF go to the ACC and get the Big East band back together. There is zero reason for any of those 3 to go to the ACC, especially if it's one devoid of FSU/Clemson/UNC/others and with maybe similar TV money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changes may occur but I don’t believe they will be that crazy lol. WVU basically didn’t get invited to the ACC due to academics so they had to settle for the big 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 2-5 get a life line to the Power 2. (FSU and Clemson to SEC, Notre Dame, UNC, and someone else to the Big10). The rest reorganize, bring back all the rest of the ACC members, maybe a new conference name, backfill a couple schools (USF, UConn, whoever), then negotiate a new tv deal as a new conference. The result is everyone wins. The schools that go to the Power 2 win big. The remaining schools in the new ACC get more money per year, even after losing a few schools. The lucky new members get that step up into a top 5 conference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
