If they didn’t join the Big 12, the next option was the American. ACC didn’t want them for whatever reason. Programs like WVU being left behind is another reason why “realignment” in CFB has been cancer.

They don't have a large city for T.V. market and/or good recruiting ground to get into one of the better conferences.

I believe certain ACC schools took issue with WVU academic rankings - where it is ranked 249 according to US News.
