Yeah could easily take Notre Dame and Navy latter again getting new states

for ESPN, but with those two a National following too.

Kansas and Iowa State would make sense if you have Cincinnati, Louisville and Notre Dame if you go to 5 in a Quad/Pod.

The ACC either needs to get aggressive or it is going to lose schools. The new financial gap is just to large.

Cable subscriptions is becoming less important ** -- NMB Hokie 08/01/2021 12:45PM

Houston to the ACC would be like WVU to the B12. -- Atlee Hokie 08/01/2021 11:55AM

Houston is a 3 hour flight from Richmond -- HOO86 08/01/2021 1:28PM

Cincinnati might be desirable because ESPN is not there, ESPN has Texas, -- Stech 08/01/2021 1:54PM

True. And Cincinnati is easy travel like Louisville. -- HOO86 08/01/2021 1:59PM

West Virginia though it’s smaller would be a new state too if ND won’t move -- Stech 08/01/2021 2:10PM

WVU and Cincinnati would fill in our map pretty well. -- HOO86 08/01/2021 2:38PM

Good article but doesn't address the academic side of the equation. Clearly -- 501 08/01/2021 10:35AM

Don’t know why we would want Cincinnati. Wasn’t too long ago -- dobrohokie 07/31/2021 8:05PM

Look at their recent progress. Preseason top ten in at least one poll. -- wwhokie1 07/31/2021 10:12PM

Problem is can they sustain that -- VaTechHokiesACC 08/01/2021 01:40AM

Put them in a good conference like the ACC and maybe he stays. ** -- wwhokie1 08/01/2021 5:25PM

Thought the age of the cable subscriber model has passed? ** -- EDGEMAN 07/31/2021 6:06PM

The ACC still has a linear network to sell. -- HOO86 07/31/2021 6:12PM

It is a good summary of the numbers. And shows the risk of ACC poaching -- HokieAl 07/31/2021 4:51PM

I’m not sure that per subscriber model really pans out. Seem to remember -- JohnsonCItyHokie 07/31/2021 5:57PM

The flaw is -- daveinop 07/31/2021 5:11PM

Not just FSU no. But them plus OU, UT, Clemson and yes the value goes up -- HokieAl 07/31/2021 5:29PM

UT and OU, yes. Clemson and FSU, no. -- daveinop 07/31/2021 5:42PM

Very true that this has been fun -- HokieAl 07/31/2021 6:27PM

"easiest" big move would be to merge the ACC and SEC -- daveinop 07/31/2021 7:06PM

Jay Bilas has been suggesting this. -- HOO86 07/31/2021 7:12PM

A merger would be interesting. I can easily see 24 teams -- HokieAl 07/31/2021 8:14PM

I'd love to see VT in a better place tomorrow; but this -- daveinop 07/31/2021 6:52PM

Still got to pay the exit fees too. ** -- RJHokie 07/31/2021 5:05PM

The higher the SEC & B1G go, additions get harder. -- HOO86 07/31/2021 4:49PM

YEP B10 and SEC have almost priced themselves out of the expansion business ** -- wwhokie1 07/31/2021 10:15PM

Yep and that is the big risk for everyone else. It's crunch time -- HokieAl 07/31/2021 4:58PM
