Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 4341825, member: 153"] The problem here is that those B12 schools dilute the earnings so much that ACC schools of all ranks start looking for better situations. For instance, do Pitt, BC and Syracuse really stay in a conference if everyone of true value leaves and they're left with TCU and Baylor and Kansas State? They're better off in the Big East. Remember, 20 years ago, the BE was already set to receive about $13m a year from ESPN. An easy argument could be made that a BE football conference would be easily worth as much as an ACC with only NC State, Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech and Duke left. Both would be worth more than the dregs of the B12. [/QUOTE]
