I simply cannot believe a rumor that the B1G is looking to completely abandon its identity (northern, geographically-connected, state-flagship schools) to directly confront the SEC in the South on the geographic island of Atlanta (not Georgia mind you, just Atlanta) while simultaneously jeopardizing its newly formulated Northeast strategy by leaving a UConn-Syracuse parlay for the ACC to establish its dominance in NYC.While we are engaged in rumor and for what it is worth and who knows, this is what I have heard from a person I consider a very credible source:
1) Delany speaks about realignment with very, very few people, including all the universities in the Big 10.
2) It is thought by some people close to him, that the likely four top schools on his list, in order, are Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Virginia, and Kansas.
3) Sadly, there was no mention of UConn.
Total hearsay and I'm only the messenger.
