UM is goin to own south florida. they almost always have. shannon's emphasis was to start dominating miami again, which they have

having that retarded miami northwestern team fall into his lap was god smiling on him

UM will end up cherry picking some national recruits if they're "back." there won't be 1 targeted area that this sways, so i doubt FSU or UF will be affected much (or any individual team)

but VT? shite's bout to get real for them if da U is back

Well VT recruits most of their kids from what is known as the Hampton Roads Correctional Facility - Phoebus High School. But they have been able to squeak through a very average ACC. If da U shows early 00s form. It will OWN the ACC

I was thinking recruiting, but yes, VT will not be the default ACC champ anymore.

VT made their name really by beating Miami when they were stil MIAMI. Fairly frequently. Yes, VT will no longer be able to roll out of bed an win the ACC, but I don't think this is some killer blow to the Hokies.

VT recruits DC, Virginia, and Pennsylvania primarily. Is there some kid who was gonna go to VT who will now go Miami? Probably not. I think actually having a good tema in the ACC could help VT, because they get killed in the national perception due to the weakness of the ACC.

I think FSU gets hurt even more by the reemergence of Miami and the addition of Saban at bama. UF will continue to get their folks. Miami recruits a different kind of player as evidenced by the clown show at the end of the game when a few of them noticed the camera. I remember playing them in the Peach Bowl. Their fan base is small, their band is small but they talk smack.

Miami.

niether is very good right now, so I have to disagree.

Perhaps it VT who seems to have an auto pass to the ACC CG lately.
