Say what you want about xCJS, but he and his wife are still committed to their pledge to the IPF.

I’ll have to search that.  I don’t recall all the ******** and moaning, and a lot of people knew the problem was at the top.  I also tuned out for those few years so I could’ve missed it ALL.

I prefer mysterious ways .... but it is beautiful.

I agree that the ACC is very close to the verge of death, but the remnants still look better than the B12. If the ACC dies the B12 can start the clock on their demise as well. There’s no world where the B10/SEC let them stay at the grownups table with Ok. St. and WVU being their premier teams. The tv markets largely include cornfields and the dust bowl, so there’s little appeal there unless cattle start watching games. 

Aside from the SMU, cal, and Stanford long travel distances, the ACC will be way better than the Big12. Much superior group to be associated with, in more relevant markets which will be better for USF alumni to have exposure to. We’ll have exposure to top academic institutions on the East and west coast, which is much better than the flyover  rejects of the Big12.

 

we should also resume a rivalry with UCF, it’s good for both universities because it gets ratings, such a natural rivalry.

If we get into the ACC, then I don't give a rat's ass about playing Central Florida.

You had me until the last part . . . if we do end up in a retooled ACC, schedule UF, FSU, UM (if they leave) regularly and maybe Oviedo CC every now and then.

If now and then is, minimum, every ten or twenty years, I'm okay with that .......... barely.

I lean towards 20. It makes it so much more meaningful.

It would be a great test of the old adage "absence makes the heart grow fonder" ......
