Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

Didn't the Virginia state legistlature force the ACC to take VA Tech due to UVA being in the conference already?

Please understand that each state may have different views on something like this.

In fairness, exasperated would be a better adjective. I can't fathom how someone can't understand why a decision the State of California makes that affects two flagships isn't binding on a decision that another state will make between a flagship and a separate university.

It is a simply reflection of the country. Everything we have is for profit or winner take all with other affected be damned. Whether it is health care or college education cost, it is all for profit. People and schools are just pawns to the profit making machines. Conference realignment is just part of the overall system so not sure why anyone is surprised.

Could not agree more! Things would be so much better if we had a collectivist system rather than a capitalist system.

ND could save The ACC tomorrow by joining. They won't. Ever.

ND is pushing for the addition of Stanford and USC to The ACC, despite it serving no one else in the conference's interests but their own.

If people haven't figured it out by now, fvk ND. I hope they game the system all the way to finding themselves on the outside of it looking in.

ND could threaten to start a new conference with Stanford and California. That would get the ACC motivated.
 
Well as is, Notre Dame has a tougher path in the playoffs than the champions from the p4 leagues. But he designed it that way, so I'm assuming he is fine with that.

If the acc takes these 3 than be thankful we are not in that pathetically awful conference. Sorry but big east basketball and independent is way better. Who cares about the money. Clearly we navigate a with deficits pretty well.

Our state officials continue to allow ESPN to profit off the backs of CT taxpayers at the expense of our taxpayer funded university. It’s a double whammy and needs to be dealt with, now.

What would you like done? If the ACC doesn't want us, then they don't want us.
