That scenario would be great, but requires ND to join.

ND repeatedly says they have no plans to join in full in football.

So what would be your scenario if ND doesn't join, and the ACC adds UConn and needs 1 other? I've suggested Navy or BYU as football only members. That leaves ND in the situation they are in today with the 5 ACC games. Perhaps they could grow to 6 games with Navy. With BYU, the ACC gets another major football brand and expands more nationally. The downside is travel to Utah for 4 ACC schools each season. But the rotation would make it rather infrequent.

UConn does not have a lot to offer besides academics -- BigCrumpy 05/18/2016 11:50AM

UConn adds more than academics. -- HOO86 05/18/2016 4:26PM

A big (major?) problem with UConn's football program -- VTHokie2000 05/19/2016 11:54AM

NCAA Tournament payouts would not make up for UConn's football -- Roanokie 05/18/2016 11:10AM

ACC should stand pat and see if B12 starts to break apart, -- wwhokie1 05/18/2016 09:07AM

If UConn was worth it, they would already be in the BIG or B12 -- Mr. Touchdown 05/17/2016 5:59PM

UConn will end up somewhere in a power 4 / 5 conf -- marcbvtgm 05/17/2016 10:55PM

I think the ACC needs to stand pat for awhile. UConn -- goldendomer 05/17/2016 5:32PM

No. The ACC does not need another partial and does -- hokie4ever 05/17/2016 8:10PM

I think the league needs to get to 16. -- HOO86 05/18/2016 01:18AM

ACC didn't learn anything from the train wreck Big East. -- Maroon Doom 05/17/2016 10:08PM

Would the ACC be better off if they had cut that deal with the B12? -- Mr. Touchdown 05/20/2016 09:28AM

That twinge is pride effing with you -- Colonel Jessup 05/18/2016 08:11AM

I hated the deal at first, but have come to accept it. Its good for ACC. -- wwhokie1 05/18/2016 12:47PM

Not its preference, but would have taken a partial Big 12 spot -- TerryD 05/18/2016 07:47AM

Yep. Don't fool yourselves thinking gaining access to east & SE states... -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2016 08:28AM
