Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 4352680, member: 10"] Probably would have happened anyway but screw the ACC frauds. [I]The ACC doled out $35 million to $38 million per school in fiscal 2021 and that won’t change much over the next 14 years. The SEC and Big Ten, meanwhile, are projected to hit $100 million per school later this decade. Exactly how long can you remain competitive when someone is doubling or tripling your revenue? Maybe the only option for Phillips is to beg for mercy and harken back to a sepia-toned vision of what college athletics supposedly used to be. Student-athletes. Local competition. Shared values. All for one and one for all. Except the ACC all but started this expansion craze two decades ago when it raided the old Big East for Boston College, Miami and Virginia Tech. Ten years later it finished the conference off by adding Louisville, Pitt and Syracuse.[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://sports.yahoo.com/acc-jim-phillips-shifting-college-football-landscape-162324438.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
