Big Ten Source: League targeting OU, Texas for 2024-25

WVU seems like a perfect fit for the SEC if the big XII dissolved and SEC wanted to expand

Well except that the ACC doesn't agree, but geographically, sure.

Perfect?
Doesnt substantially improve quality nor does it bring a major market.

You get some proximity to Pitt which is not bad, but hardly a home run.

I didn’t say it was an easy solution. Merely, in all likelihood, the only solution as it relates to the ACC. The football schools are running the ACC now. UConn being wanted by UNC/Duke/Virginia is likely a hindrance at this point. UConn needs ND to champion them because ND is the only voice FSU/Clemson would likely listen to now. But as you said, it doesn’t seem likely.

The B10 is probably an easier scenario to imagine, though they have several directions they can go in so.

It’s more likely than not that UConn doesn’t get a P5 invite in the next 10 years.

But still a hell of a lot more likely than any Big East program.

Jealous?

Of course ND can only join the ACC, that isn’t the question. The question is how best to get in a UConn that FSU/Clemson obviously look down on. Again, the best shot is to convince ND to join in football and that UConn is their best dance partner. FSU would hand deliver the invitation to Storrs if the Leprechaun asked.

UConn will be ND’s Dance partner for the ACC when he’ll freeses over.

Oh we're their dance partner alright. The only problem is that ND decided to skip the dance.

 

[billybud]

Notre Dame does dance...but it is a pas seul.

And every few years they get to f the prom queen too

 

[Adios]

Football was invented in Boston and New Haven, dammit.

 

[Zissou]

Jealous?

Nope. We are going for 3 titles in four years. Are you kidding?

 

[billybud]

Nope. We are going for 3 titles in four years. Are you kidding?

Hmmmm...so is the ACC....

And not just in basketball....

 

[Adios]

You think I believe you?
