FSU is a soccer school with a 1 seed. UConn plays Rutgers in Round 1.

I'm just glad they are back in it for now. That program fell apart from being at the top. The women's team even more so. There was a stretch where UConn and UNC were the only real contenders ever year.

FSU would still be attractive to another conference for all the things that really matter to the gods of realignment. That said, I never believed they would beat the grant of rights and I don't think they believe either.

FSU does play 1-10 and 0-8 Charlotte Southern this weekend and then Florida so who knows. Would Charlotte Southern count? Has a team ever gone from undefeated one season to absolute garbage the next? It has to be some kind of record.
Never seen anything like it.

No I never thought they would defeat the grant of rights. The combination of their much publicized fight against the grant of rights, their crying about being left out of the college football playoffs last year, and then their shiiitshow of a season this year has made them somewhat of a laughingstock for this year, not withstanding their big annual TV check for being in the ACC.

I didnt think they’d beat it but I was surprised the ACC didn’t negotiate a settlement. I think FSU’s total collapse this year put some iron in the league’s spine and made FSU kind of RE-think the whole thing. For one thing it meant that none of their possible suitors had any interest in pushing the matter. If you are the Big 10 you are not adding FSU right now. Same with the SEC. the mystique has been squashed. And Clemson was damaged by association. An of course getting hammered by Georgia didn’t help their value.

What ever happened to billybud? Haven't seen any "insider information" from him in a while. Always got a good laugh out of his posts.

He lives in western North Carolina. He checked in alive and well after the hurricane but I wouldn't be surprised if he has more pressing issues right now

His health isn’t great either. I’m sure that he’s taking the disastrous FSU football season hard and doesn’t want to face the ribbing he’ll get from some here either.
