Look at the ACC revenue share per member school compared to what each SEC school receives.

Then don't forget that the ACC is likely facing an existential threat in the not-so-distant future because Florida State and Clemson are both gone as soon as they can figure out how to get out of their Grant of Rights or just wait for them to expire. At that point, its going to be a mad scramble by the remaining ACC schools to get invites to the SEC or B1G....and NC State isn't really a desirable addition for either conference. The ACC will end up either dissolved or the remaining ACC schools will have to add a bunch of G5 schools and become the east coast verison of the new PAC-12

I’m sad Jordy isn’t on air anymore to discuss. The biggest Wade supporter of all.

Historically speaking - this return is up there with the time Napoleon Bonaparte broke out of prison, and returned home to his army


And a couple months later he was defeated at Waterloo, captured by the British, and spent the rest of his life in exile on a remote island in the Atlantic, where he died in 1821.

NC State is in a saturated market. NCS, UNC and Duke in a 25 mile triangle. NCS never going to catch up to UNC and Duke...

Both UNC and Duke are a bit overstated in today’s world. It’s all about specialization and NCST laps them in engineering programs. Falls behind in other programs.

My whole point was their lack of commitment from a robust alumni played a factor in Wade’s return.

Well they should have an extra $5 million to put towards next year's team.

Drive through a chemical plant parking lot. Engineers drive the worst cars. They are efficiently minded cheapskates...

My comment was just about the fanbase in general in that area.

You’re right about over saturation. Exactly why none of them will ever be in the SEC.
