Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 1623501, member: 1414"] Indeed. The Big XII wouldn't want Wake (or BC) and knows it can't ever get UNC, UVA. It has its sights set on FSU, Clemson, Miami and maybe NC State. The crackpot theory of the moment is along these lines. The B1G may raid the ACC despite the GOR and take some combination of UVA, UNC and GT. The SEC would dive in and grab VT and somebody else, maybe NC State. The Big XII could then pick up the leftovers. Here are my reasons why this is a fantasy: [LIST=1] [*]ACC GOR [*]UNC, Duke and UVA pride. These are proud schools and prefer to anchor their own conference. Add FSU if you like. [*]The B1G wants into this region because it is rapidly growing and has money. It's a potential gold mine. UNC and UVA (and the other schools) know this. The ACC has a bad contract in the current landscape, but they have great potential as they are (more if they hadn't screwed up with Pitt and Louisville). [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
