Could be just political pressure.

Towards the end of his statement, he says this: One of the few wise comments made in the blogosphere is that no one negotiates their future in the media. We can't afford to have conference affilia

I don't know. They had better hurry up and add USF to the mix to maintain that advantage. Go Bulls!

FSU is so gone to B12, it would mean an additional yearly payout to the school of at least $10MM. With their Athletics Dept bleeding money, how would they not take that?

There are only 4-6 schools worth looking into:

1. Notre Dame- are they finally ready to join a conference?

2. UCONN- bad blood with BC. Starting dialogue to resolve the issues caused by the 2005 lawsuit

3.USF- FL market, upgraded facilities. Some recent success in BBAll. ( made the NIT and NCAA 2 out of the last 3 years.)

4. Cincy- GReat tradition. Horrible facilities. they do have access to the Bengals facility if their current stadium is deemed too small.

5. Rutgers- I think this program has peaked, but strager things have happened when additional money is pupmed into it.

6. An upper tier CUSA team like ECu and Southen Miss- doubtful, or Houston, Memphis, I would think Houston is the front runner here.

the Acc's options are extremely limited. They need a FB presence and our record vs ACC teams shows we are already competitive in this league. I personally think it is a downgreade in competition for us, but a huge upgrade in $$ resources and perception. $$ talks and that is the reality.

Also keep in mind that the ACC has issues with how much "catring" is done to the BB powerhouses. the infighting is not as bad as the BE but the issue still exists here.

It is a pretty big issue with the BB powers. I think the only difference is they don't have any BB only schools. If we move to the ACC all we have done is move from one BB conference to another for maybe more money at the end.

Sorry, but this statement is ridiculous. Yea the ACC is a bball conference, but come one. You can't say that with a straight face and actually mean it, can you?

20 million dollar buy out. Top football program of the league if they stay. If they move, they're Texas' *****.

That logic is absurd. Florida State has nothing to fear in Texas. I'm sure LSU, Auburn, Florida, etc wish they could get out of the SEC so they wouldn't have to fight with Alabama for the championship...

Good to see somebody publicly taking a stand against the status quo... NOT everybody is happy at FSU land, which means there at least is SOME truth to this chatter..

If USF wins the Big East including beat FSU, SU, and Pitt, ACC will consider us.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
