Someone please tell me that ACC leadership watched the game!


I don't care if it is a strategic move or not. Our "base" business needs a shot of energy if we want to be more comparable to the SEC.

No other addition would instantly create two intense rivalries (VT and Pitt) and two other strong rivalries (Louisville, Syracuse). Those are games the entire east coast would watch, and sometimes the nation. The population and future of WV is irrelevant from an economic standpoint.

Academically, if we pair the addition of WVU with a strong educational brand like ND, Conn, or Navy, we should be fine.

BTW, WVU is a strong basketball brand as well.
