Maybe, but check the ACC's home page...


they are selling themselves as an academic league; it's the first aspect mentioned in the ACC's mission statement, and the ACC academic consortium is also on the athletic website. Academics are mentioned on every ACC commercial during football season. ACC presidents value the perception of academic excellence more than we would expect. Adding WVU would be great for football season, but it would seriously undermine (kill?) the entire academic pitch.
