The SEC already has the Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, and Florida Markets. Gotta add that West Virginia market if the SEC hopes to be successful in football.
Think he is talking about a new conference with those schools. Need 8 ACC to leave.

Why would Duke be included. They're tiny compared to unc. Have you not understood the era we are in or are you basketball brained?

No need to be an a hole. In 2023 Duke was as high as No. 16 in the AP Rankings. While they did not enter T25 this year, I believe they ended up 30th in the rankings. Considering the rivalry with UNC, I would be surprised if they were not included in a pulled out of someone’s a z z scenario. They would be in a better position FB wise than us or did you miss the 20-teens and our lack of success?

I'm being like this because I keep seeing the same wrong ideas pop up.

Duke's attendance figures would fit perfectly in the the MAC. They don't have the pull in the conference shuffle.

He's right about the SEC and basketball. And the Big East looks like 4, 3, maybe 2 bid league in the future. Not good. Better competition makes you better and will HP long-term with recruiting. That said I have zero confidence the ACC will do what's in their best interest by offering us. They've had many chances and passed.

Guy taking about ESPN burying and disrespecting teams in the Big12...hmmm, where have we seen that play out before? As my son would say, "bruh". Maybe if they had an East Coast team or pod that got them NY eyes, they wouldn't have to complain. Oh the irony.
you know somebody was crying about the NHL forsaking ESPN around 2004 and I'm like "that espn would have been glad to make hockey the 8th most popular sport in the US". Of course ESPN would do that.

ESPN's non game programming is in the narrative setting business and you only build narratives amongst groups that are already popular.
