I'm sure something can be arranged. :D

What about Maryland makes you so "crabby"? :D

:rolleyes:


Maryland is a fine state, just the Flagship school and their fans :mad:

Yes, their fans can sometimes be a bit much, (trust me I know as a Marylander who went to WVU) but they did provide my darling daughter with a fine education that she is turning into a successful career. ;)
 
I am excited to see how these new teams compete in their new conferences, especially Stanford with new leadership. Some exciting basketball is just around the corner!
 
Thinking about throwing my hat into the ring. I got some great ideas to help my Blue Devils



Why am I imagining your contract negotiation would include a life time supply of BBQ?

Incoming Swede Tilda Trygger putting up numbers! I’m curious to see how game ready she is as a freshman. Certainly an intriguing talent who could really elevate the Pack’s ceiling.

(Idk how to properly link a tweet so it shows up here rather than it just saying X.com :/ )
Change the "x" to "Twitter" when pasting the link. One of the board moderators outlined how to do so in a pinned thread.

Just replace x with Twitter




Cant wait to see #35 for Duke dunking on her

I haven’t seen mention in this thread: This morning in tha WaPo there was an article about two lawsuits against the ACC, filed by Clemson and Florida State over TV rights or the distribution of them or something.

Sounded to me like they’re just looking for a legal way to jump to one of the super conferences. Any comments from the ACC-following members?

TIA

My gut and local rumors ar that FSU really wants out of the Tobacco Road conference. Clem’s Son mostly wants a bigger share of the pie based on what they bring to the conference in football TV revenue and bowl money.

F$U can kick rocks. They willingly signed the Grant of Rights, and now they are trying to lawyer up to get out of it. Where are they gonna go? The SEC doesn't need them. Last time I checked, the Big 10 wants AAU institutions not second rate institutions like F$U. I wish the commissioner would inform them they are free to leave under one condition... and start singing that Rhihanna song afterwards :rolleyes::eek::D (if you aren't familiar just google Rhihanna and Money)

I'm mixed on Clemson.... the same things apply to them, but as an original member... I'd prefer them to stay.
 
More or less agree with triad about FSU and Clemson. It sucks but here we are. The ACC is in a bad deal and are getting left behind money wise by the SEC and big 10. Not sure they are being left behind on the field of play. At least not yet.

FSU and Clemson are looking around and seeing Vanderbilt and Rutgers rolling in the money while they are stuck (in a deal they signed off on!). I get it. But idk what the answer is.

It all sucks as a guy that grew up living and breathing the ACC in the late 80s, 90s and beyond but the glory days was 9 teams. Everyone played each other twice. Rivalries were natural. Everything was balanced. It was fantastic from a fans POV. Now it’s a total cluster with schools all over the map. The conference lost its culture as all of college athletics chase dollars. The culture and character of regional conferences is what made college sports interesting, hence making money. Bigger ain’t always better. We are just playing out the string now until the first straw breaks and then it’s Katie bar the door.
