The stars clearly aligned this week. Looking at my post history, I was last here 2016. The site randomly popped into my head today…

So wait, did I really just randomly check out SyracuseFan.com, after many many years, the same week I randomly get mentioned? Odd to say the least… haha

A) I can’t believe my iPhone actually had the site stored on my keychain. Not even sure iPhones existed when I last posted. B) Can’t believe my account still existed. C) Amazed to see all the regulars still here. D) Good to be back.

Like a Phoenix, rising from Arizona...

I appear to be 2 years late on this, but I'll clarify a couple points thanks to my hyperthymesia. In a post earlier in the season, I had commented that my surly attitude was due to a childhood trauma where a fried scallop had found its way into my dessert. Prior to the Virginia Tech game, I...

This is what comes from a degree in broadcasting from WVU. Definitely watch the video! http://seattle.cbslocal.com/2013/04/22/news-anchor-suspended-for-uttering-obscenities-for-his-first-words-on-air/

What's the update? This has all been out there since 4:30 this afternoon from the initial article... http://www.statesman.com/news/sports/big-12-exploring-alliance-with-acc-two-other-leagu/nT7Bt/ "“It’s purely exploratory,” said Bowlsby, who added that the leagues involved have had “multiple...

Per the cbssports.com article, wasn't it first announced in the on the statesman.com (the American-statesman)?

Evidence? The statement had everything to do with the Big Ten just taking Maryland and nothing to do with Internet rumors...

It's funny, I feel the exact same way about my secret rendezvous with your mom. At this point, it's just easier and cheaper to go back and watch the tapes...

I wonder if UConn has out a call into the Pope yet? That Catholic league must be looking mighty sexy... Which makes me wonder, will playboy ever do a "Girls of the Catholic Basketball Conference?" We can always dream...

The FSU board doesn't seem to think much of the dude. Their basic response? Pretty good visual reminder of why this guy's panties are in a bunch...

I think it works for the opposite reason. I think the real strategy of "icing" the kicker is to, on occassion, not call the time out. That's the only thing that is going to throw any timing or thought process off. Remember it working for Belichick recently... Not sure he didn't do that last...

Inter-office ball busting...

Ever think that maybe it's some inter-office ball busting going on?

I don't know about Tigers, but WVU chicks aren't very good at grammar. Her belly shouldn't read " Tigers are <arrow pointing down> 's " but instead "Tigers are <arrow pointing down> drop the 'y' and add 'ies'"... I wonder if that type of question was on the ACC application?

What does that say about us?

Stopped there as well... The ACC basketball side of things doesn't want a diluted, overly big product. Doing that, you'd manage to have both the football heavy schools and basketball heavy schools of the ACC pissed off.

ACC will be the conference with the best damn facilities!

hokies attack

CSBBS? Was it confirmed somewhere else?

That's right, I forgot how it stopped Maryland. Oh no, wait, it didn't...

Syracuse and Pitt would do the same thing right now, and we haven't even had our cherry popped in the ACC yet.

I don't tweet...

I wish! Wouldn't be a bad thing...

Feeling amoungst friend/family is that announcement should come next week. Everyone is scrambling and it is understood time is off the essence, lest another conference make a move and screw things up. Not saying BC gets another offer (they won't), but Big Ten can't afford to let ACC make a big...

That would be correct. It's justified in that Rutgers is the NYC team, for which Boston is the next contiguous big market...

Obviously there is a 16th out there, My booster friends just don't know who.

And related to a pro sports town mattered with Rutgers, or when the ACC decided to go with BC way back when?

BC booster folks. Like everything else, it's TV sets. Locks them up for Big Ten.

Figured this would be the next chip to fall...

Absolutely positively no way, no how...

I think people need to replace the batteries in their sarcasm detectors...

Corruption and greed are two totally seperate things...

Your separation from reality: A) we let ND in as a partial member, like it or not. We're not now kicking them out if they don't go to a full member. That would just be bad business. B) you want us to grab whoever FSU and Clemson want and be done with it, as if it's a simple request. Who do...

Reading the article that came from, it seems his words are being slightly twisted. Headlines read is is concerned about ACC, when his statement sounds more like a concern about conference realignment in general. He doesn't say this "conference's" situation, he says "conference."

So, cut your nose off to spite your face? Cool...

Is Peter pan our athletic director? Because your post is no where near based in reality...

Brilliant!

Safe to assume the check will be post dated?

Precisely! It all keeps adding up...

A little birdie told me that a Syracuse alumi, whose head is quite large, was seen withdrawing his life savings yesterday. Now, I can't be sure if he's been as successful as the under-armor dude, but who knows. Could he be preparing to pay the $50 million exit fee? Again, I can't say for sure...

Finally got link to article... http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-73357732/

Read the story earlier... Was amazed at total lack of supporting information to back the headline. Not even sure where they came up with the headline. I feel like it is pretty clear no basketball only schools are joining the ACC...

In an interview with the Chicago Tribune, made a connection to this move by the Big Ten and Fox recently purchasing YES. Also said this talk has been around for a while, which leads me to believe more was known about Maryland when they voted on the large exit fee...

See a lot of talk about Swofford and ACC being caught off guard. I gotta believe they knew something was up when Maryland voted against the large exit fee. Wouldn't be surprised they knew something was up back then... I'm sure there will be a quick play by the ACC in response. I tend to...

Was Maryland the other school, along with FSU, that voted against the $50 mil exit fee?

Good call, I stand corrected. And now that I think of it, it's never a dead ball when you fumble in the end zone. It's a free ball until someone recovers or the ball goes out of bonus...

Can't get game after last commercial break...

Obviously they aren't walking off the field.
