Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 544759, member: 1414"] Last year there was a story that GT was considered with Maryland, before they moved on to Rutgers. For all the reasons we already hashed out (weak presence even in Atlanta market, travel issues) the B1G rejected them and moved on to Rutgers. I haven't seen any changes in that scenario. I think Nelson is right. The Dude is yammering on about no GOR with the ACC. No with this contract there wouldn't be. But if ESPN sweetens it in exchange for a GOR, I think they will get one. Then perceptions of the ACC change dramatically. The B1G may be resigning itself to the fact that they can't get south of DC (or Charlottesville) on the east coast. The B12 was hoping that Clemson, FSU, VT and Miami could be in shredded league and be easy pickings. Now the Big 12 probably needs to move first. BYU should be high on the list, but doesn't help WVU travel. [/QUOTE]
