Don't see the ACC as a viable option. Their marquee programs would leave in heartbeat. Adding teams to that league would mean trying to extract more money from ESPN (bad timing for that). Adding BC and Syracuse for supposed market value really hasn't worked for them. FSU probably lead the charge to admit Louisville over us 10 years ago and I don't see that attitude changing. They would view us as another mouth to feed without additional revenue. Clemson, FSU, etc. already are carrying BC, Syracuse, Wake. Pitt has at least upgraded their program but they aren't a strong national brand either. FSU, Clemson, and perhaps VaTech would fit in the SEC. UNC, UVA, and yes maybe Miami and GaTech for the Florida/Georgia market would fit in the B1G someday if there is room.
Actually GaTech and NC State would potentially add value to the Big 12 also. And I don't know, or really care, what happens to Duke (Ivy League).

We would give the Big 12 a foothold in the NY/NE market. The ACC has that already.
