If UNC comes then I have to believe that UVA is already a done deal.

Everything I've read(a lot of gibberish and nonsense) says that UNC will either end up in the SEC or B1G, but that neither conference wants Duke.

There is no way UNC goes to the SEC. They care about academic prestige conference pride too much for that to happen.

I don't see the administration doing it either, but if it were up to the fans that's how it'd be, so I won't count out the SEC.

It was tongue in cheek people.

ETA: 8000th post on a phrase I've never actually written before.

Yea, the walmart fans. Not anyone who actually went to UNC. They look down on the SEC

SEC would be a smarter move for them. Biggest mistake in a school can make is to not stay local. See big east.

Missouri wanted in the Big Ten but didn't get offered. They burned their bridges in the Big 12 and had to make a move.

Academically Missouri isn't in the same league as UNC. Not even close.

UNC, Virginia, Maryland and Rutgers.

B1G is going to be the best conference TOP to BOTTOM of great schools.

With the Pac 12 the Top Heavy champ.

I'm not sure about that. Northwestern, UVA, UNC and Michigan are comparable in rankings to Stanford, UCLA, USC and Cal Berkeley.

After that the Big Ten takes over in a big way as you indicated. Not even close.
