Big 10 talk buzzing again. #UVA being mentioned often as likely to join. Georgia Tech still in the mix. #UNC, the big domino, has an offer.

Been saying for while that UVa and Georgia Tech would end up in Big Ten. Interesting to see if that happens anytime soon.

Don't like it. I really think the SEC needs to own NC and VA.

If UMD can get out of its exit fee, bye bye ACC.

I hate conference realignment, the SEC just waters down its product.

People always wanna say we added MO for tv markets. I get that but why didn't we look up the east coast. There are plenty of tv's in between Columbia and DC that also provide a talent pool.

Virginia and Tech? Another academic feather in the cap of the Big10...and...and an awful football addition.

Upping the prestige, dragging down the sports.

Please don't let us go to the BIG. I don't want to associate with any school that chants Seven Nation army. Although I do like the CIC and the added benefits academically. I think there's something to be said about academics first then athletics. BIG certainly has their priorities in line along with excellence in athletics. Many of the same characteristics as the ACC.

In my order of preference: Use this as leverage to have Notre Dame join as a full-time member (basically, if they don't join to solidify the ACC, then this is the only choice...bringing in Notre Dame swings the tables big time and should please FSU/Clemson).
- Get picked up by the SEC
- Get picked up by anyone
