Message: [QUOTE="CONN78SEJ, post: 4634756, member: 10604"] All GOR’s are not equal, the one that binds ACC schools to the conference is like an anchor from a Nimitz class aircraft carrier while I would compare the Big 12’s version to a bicycle lock. Clemson, Miami and especially FSU would have jumped ship years ago if they could’ve. The only alternative they have is to negotiate with and get Notre Dame to join in join in football too, Let’s not forget the history that Virginia Tech has in football too when Frank Beamer coached them. If Notre Dame is interested, and they might be with certain stipulations, then the ACC immediately has a 6 or 7 team nucleus that they can build on, not to mention a lock on basketball and March Madness. At that point they could to do some poaching themselves, the SEC and B1G have no GOR whatsoever. At that point with continuing improvement in Football and both basketball programs, as well as baseball and ice hockey, UConn becomes very very attractive. The ACC is far far from being picked apart. I would not count out John Swofford just yet. [/QUOTE]
