If the BIG was going to take an ACC team why would they target BC?  If mean if a GOR battle is going to be waged then wouldn't the BIG want a UNC or a UVa. ND is a strange situation, they may be contractually bound to the ACC but the ACC does not own their GOR.  BC is a completely different situation.

The argument that the ACC knew it was financially a loser and choose to stick together is very flawed.  Even as recently as 2 years ago there was still some question as to whether the network model or the direct media sales model  was the better option.  Today it is abundantly clear the network is the big winner. There is a big difference between "might" double and actually witnessing the doubling.

If conference realignment has taught one thing it is that schools will work in their own best interest.  Tradition does not pay the bills.

As for the idea that UConn fans would welcome joining another failing P5 conference while BC joins the arguably most stable conference in America...well, that is just plain silly.  If BC was leaving the ACC that would indicate the ACC is faltering...why would we want to go there ahead of the BIG.
