But does 17 for basketball make sense though?

Play every team once for a 16 conference game schedule.

The 16-team Big East made it work for almost a decade.

IMO, being in the ACC with a network is way better than being in the B12 with a network.

I don't think there's much disagreement with that statement.

In my opinion the first P5 to offer us a home is the best conference for us.

Hear that guys...operators are standing by.

 

[Hoophound]

Being in either conference, with or without a network is great. I'm not going to be picky. At this point I think I'd be just as happy with the Big 12 but I'm afraid that expansion may not save it. Seems like Texas may not be committed long-term one way or another.

Still, it kind of appeals to me to have the opportunity to be in a conference that can take in ACC refugees should the ACC blowup. It would be nice to have Boston College and Syracuse begging us to help them get in.

Hmmn, there may be more to this story than meets the eye:

So, do we think Jim was incredibly early, or incredibly late, to AOL?

I have to say this last bit makes sense and suggests to me that his source may be real. BYUTV means everything to BYU. It is a forum to reach the LDS and covers more than sports. They can't surrender it, and without content, it can't sustain itself. So BYU for football is very logical.

I thought partial memberships meant a weak conference....

Adding UConn and Temple to the ACC is way to logical for CR

I thought, much like Beetlejuice, you only appear when the Notre Dame to the Big Ten are posted?

This made it over to Landthieves and they think it's real.

Not if the partial is football...

 

[TerryD]

I wasn't trying to be one, but recall dozens of posts on multiple board over many years saying "no partial memberships, ever".

What has changed, if the BYU thing is true? Does that mean Navy as a football only to the ACC now makes sense?

Terry you really don't have to try

Why wouldn't it be? I don't know how credible "Jim" is but the logic makes sense to me.

Well, maybe, maybe not. If the B1G raids the ACC and FSU and Clemson leave, it will be better to be in the B12--financially anyway.

It would greatly assist with the creation of an ACC Network though, which I think is becoming a reality with ESPN possibly getting shut out of the Big Ten deal and needing to shore up its investment in the ACC.

I hope that this is real and, if so, congrats.

Not really, it's that one lunatic guy over there who posted it.

[upstater]

Well, CSNBBS has people from USF with internal info (and through Tim Brando) that the ACC is talking UConn and just UConn as things are still being discussed with Notre Dame.

Or at least use some lower case letters. If that was typed in an email he would be accused of shouting.
