What's this?

Not that the ACC should kick any member out...

but if they did, I don't think Wake would be top of their list. The ACC values BC too because of their location.

Through my Chicago maroon and burnt orange glasses, I think the ACC values the schools in the following order (top being the most valuable in their eyes):

1. UNC
2. Duke
3. UVa
4 tie. FSU
4 tie. Clemson
4 tie. Notre Dame
7. Wake
8. NCSU
9. Louisville
10. GT
11. Miami (they were probably much higher when 1st admitted)
12. BC
13. SU
14. VT
15. Pitt

With the ACC requirement for 1 P5 game, I bet we'll see more B1G too. -- HOO86 01/13/2017 11:53AM

Might help recruit that area...having a game there? ** -- Stech 01/13/2017 07:34AM

I'd like to restore the Navy series for that. -- HOO86 01/13/2017 11:09AM

Domer, are you saying you would like to belong in the ACC? or is it TIC? ** -- moonda 01/12/2017 08:42AM

Whenever I hear this kind of talk I cringe... it's a little Too Louisville -- obxhokies 01/11/2017 09:07AM

Goodness gracious, can't we get past this thinking from 20-30 yrs ago? -- chuckd4vt 01/11/2017 1:33PM

How loyal has the ACC been to VT thus far? Define loyalty. -- seekoHoG 01/12/2017 12:16PM

Maybe if they didn't have human trash coaching their main rev sports. -- reestuart 01/12/2017 12:09PM

That's probably my biggest "beef" with WF -- EDGEMAN 01/12/2017 05:43AM

Not to mention, in the world of integrity... -- Calamitous 01/12/2017 6:50PM

I agree about WF, but I still hate Louisville. ** -- Mr. Touchdown 01/11/2017 2:35PM

Not about hating Louisville--- it's about... -- obxhokies 01/11/2017 3:02PM

There's no difference between SEC and ACC. See UNC, UM, UofL, Clemson, FSU, -- chuckd4vt 01/12/2017 10:52AM

In what sense??? I'm looking all the way back to the initial break up -- obxhokies 01/12/2017 5:03PM

Those ACC schools have prioritized atheltics at the expense of academic -- chuckd4vt 01/12/2017 6:38PM

Ahhh--- I see where you are coming from -- obxhokies 01/13/2017 01:12AM

Not that the ACC should kick any member out... -- Calamitous 01/11/2017 1:05PM

It would be interesting to know if ESPN has an order. -- HOO86 01/11/2017 8:47PM

If ESPN is rating/paying for them it is about football. Inferiority complex -- Stech 01/12/2017 07:35AM

That's up to Whit Babcock, Tim Sands and current coaches... -- Calamitous 01/12/2017 1:34PM

I will say this when Swofford is done with the TV deals and more expansion -- Stech 01/12/2017 7:16PM

Someone like Mike Aresco would be good for the ACC. -- HOO86 01/12/2017 7:45PM

Didn't think about age with Aresco. He was a great candidate in my mind. ** -- Calamitous 01/12/2017 9:45PM

I think his model resume is the right one. There should be others like him ** -- HOO86 01/13/2017 2:32PM

Don't know that Louisville appreciated that highly -- wwhokie1 01/11/2017 5:32PM

Looks about right lol ** -- obxhokies 01/11/2017 3:03PM

What? If that's truly the ACC's pecking order, they're delusional. -- chuckd4vt 01/11/2017 1:29PM

The honest mistake that most make in looking at Conference Realignment is -- obxhokies 01/11/2017 3:11PM

Nope. Mistake is not making it a bigger factor. Fball's 80% of the money. -- chuckd4vt 01/11/2017 3:48PM

I agree. It just not what really happens. We tend to think -- obxhokies 01/11/2017 4:11PM

Not that the ACC should kick any member out...
