More conference realignment talk

[Dr. Blackheart]

ACC is cooked.  FSU and Clemson desperate to leave.

Another benefit of signing on with MSG.

Yup.  I’d say o/u on implosion is 1.5 years.  Just a matter of who the Big Ten takes.  I’d say UNC and Virginia are locks and at least 1 of the Florida schools.

SEC has some issues with current members probably not thrilled with adding intrastate rivals but probably don’t have a choice

Don't the states of North Carolina and Virginia have requirements to keep their respective flagship and state schools together? e.g., if UVA goes to the Big10, wouldn't VaTech have to go too?

Didn't Oklahoma.  $$$

Allegedly was the case in Oklahoma, too.  Virginia and VaTech weren’t in the same conferences for years.

At this point with conference realignment, I’m putting all these considerations out to pasture.

Roger that, just had this feeling like it was discussed as an obstacle in the past but couldn't put my finger on it.

Big Ten has wanted UNC for years. UVa makes sense, too - at least as much as any of this makes sense.

[Scoop Snoop]

UVA is and always has been the darling of Virginia's universities to the politicians in Richmond. If they thought UVA was better off in the Big 10 and Virginia Tech was left behind, I really don't think they would care too much.
