Is There a Feud Between the ACC and the Big Ten? http://sportspolitico.com/2016/01/20/is-there-a-feud-between-the-acc-and-the-big-ten/ …

"So whether the CCG vote has to do with conference realignment, or not having any friends, the ACC’s decision to propose an amendment to ban satellite camps (which is a direct shot at the B1G) certainly doesn’t dispel the notion that there is a feud between the two conferences."

Sure looks that way. When the P5 was formed yoyu knew there would be issues between members of the club. I didn't imagine they would manifest publicly so quickly.

I am a Tech grad... live in Dallas, and lets just say, have a very interesting next door neighbor.

Here is the deal, though: this is an OU / Texas power play. I think the Big 12 will expand... and it was always with BYU and Cincy. But UConn has made a push, especially w/ Boren rattling on about the network.

Does your friend work at at car wash?

There is already a rule about hosting camps out of state. Harbough has gotten around the rule by "guest coaching" at others' camps.

"NCAA rules state coaches are only permitted to host football camps within a 50-mile radius of campus and within the school's state. However, Michigan's Jim Harbaugh is among the coaches circumventing these rules by serving as guest coaches at camps officially hosted by other schools."

One significant change regarding satellite camps recently came when the NCAA Interpretations Committee notified schools they could no longer promote their attendance at other camps online, via social media and in recruiting correspondence.

It is hard to believe the traditional P5 members do not harbor some hard feeling against the ACC.

Conference realignment was started by the ACC. I am sure it was not lost on the Big10, SEC, or Pac1o that the ACC literally destroyed the Big East and assumed its position. For traditionalists in the Big10 it must be difficult to accept what they have had to become to survive. The Big10, SEC and PAC10 all had to react to protect their equities but it is the ACC that fired the first shot that started the war.

The irony is the ACC started the conference realignment war and they are the most likely candidate to be crushed by it. No team has suffered more than UCONN at the hands of the ACC and I would love to see them reap what they sowed. It all comes back around....

If the B12 wants a network, it has to invite us. If they decide to invite Houston, it just means Texas won and rest of the B12 are toast. Without a B12 network and Texas doing its own things, there won't be stability now or in the future.

ESPN needs to now repent and tell Big 12, no UConn=no network.

In a sense, a microcosm of non-northeast fan view to be overcome:

Can you imagine if the ACC dies and that piece of crap school up in the Arctic tundra can't get picked up by anyone?

And then they have to open a stupid realignment board where they have to post endless streams of tweets from jackass fake insiders like @thatguyfromFL and @flubdynasty and endlessly justify their $hitty football program and try to promote their basketball when everyone keeps telling them no one cares about basketball

Somebody needs to tweet this clown the list with NFL draft picks over the last 10 years AFTER they tell this idiot it was a BB commit.

It really is a perfect storm of stupid

Someone did the latter. Can someone drop knowledge on this guy re our nfl players...do it nicely though please... I'm tired.. Lol

Task completed.

UCONN needs to let the potential suitors know, no network = no UCONN.

Blame the SEC and the NCAA....the ACC was happy as a round robin conference...than the SEC added South Carolina and Arkansas in 1991. The SEC was the first to expand and the first to institute a championship game.

The ACC petitioned to have a championship game and the NCAA said that they had to have more members and divisions...so, the ACC complied

 

[The Funster]

With ESPN's blessing the ACC willfully set out to destroy the Big East. I'm still hoping they choke on it.

Billy is 100% correct. The ACC petitioned the NCAA to have a CG at 10 teams, before taking BC and VT, they were told no. Another example of the NCAA kicking UCONN in the nads.

Looks like a dead heat between Uconn and Memphis for the 2nd spot(provided BYU doesn't cave on Sundays) and Cincy is all but in.

I don't get UConn. No corporate back like Mem/FDX, & they feel more like a private school/D2 re: football. Don't see the eyeballs.

Really?

LOl the only way Memphis gets in is if Fed ex pays for there inclusion. To actually take a community college like Memphis and pay them..............

Backing off his silly Memphis position.

IF Texas consents to expand (a big "if"), it is a 3 way race between BYU, Cincinnati and UConn. I don't think Houston is a serious player in this.

If the ACC is interested, we won't know about it until it happens. They move quietly.

Someone should tweet to this clown that ACADEMICS MATTER. Does Texas want to add another commuter college to the B12? Who knows? If Texas is leaving then Memphis will have a chance.

*Academics* Matter.

Sorry couldn't resist in pointing out the irony.

I don't think UCONN fans will forget anytime soon how ACC took BCU's side and blocked UCONN and took schools like Pitt over us. Last round of the realignment when ACC took Louisville community college over UCONN was the biggest slap in the face. Had ACC left UL alone and let B12 have them, UCONN would be in the ACC and everyone would be much happier today.

Let's face it, ACC went out of its way to screw UCONN and knowledgeable UCONN fans won't forget that anytime soon if ever.

Does anyone really believe Memphis is going to be invited to a P5 conference?

& Memphis State feels more like a home for wayward boys. If Memphis is in a dead heat with UConn then I'm moving to North Korea.
