Swaim looking for another ACC team to bolt soon

[ZooCougar]

How could you tell though? Would it look any different?

Great point.

I want so badly for our leaders to find a way to do this that doesn't involve us joining the ACC. We can be an elite Island in the Big East, independent or B1G if we are really lucky.

Just too much of a bad taste in my mouth. We weren't wanted. Move on.

If the ACC gets dumptrucked like we hope, the smart move is for the remaining ACC schools to vote to dissolve the ACC, and leave to join UConn, Cincinnati and whoever in a new league. There is no reason to save the ACC at that point.

Collect as much of the 20 to 25 million exits fees from the departing schools first. Look at the bonanza the BE bb schools just got with all the defections. That's why the bb only schools haven't voted to dissolve yet.

After the schools bail in the ACC examine the detritus remaining in the ACC, BE and maybe B12 put the best together and call NBC!

I am thinking the same thing. One step at a time though.

I would prefer to worry about UConn, and what we are going to do to revitalize the football program.

Should any combination of FSU, Clem, GT, UVA, VT UNC leave the ACC. We'd be joining what is essentially the old BE minus RU/WVa and the BB schools. Adding Duke, NCST, Wake, and Miami.

Sure we'd be stuck with a bunch of untrustworthy gutter rats, but it's not the worst outcome. A saved BE FB conference (under a new name) swapping the PC's/ Seton Hall's for Duke and friends. So long as the ACC keeps the Orange Bowl, which is not a cinch, it'll do.

Getting into the B1G, would of course be better. The "people who can suck it" thread would set internet records.
