Well, it could happen when half the ACC schools leave the conference in a few years.

How would that work? Big East schools join for everything but football? that would be a giant conference

We’re hearing UCLA and USC coaches lamenting the travel in the Big 10. Not enjoying it at all. Time for the ACC to make a move to get the four Big 10 schools to move to the ACC and form a west coast division of the ACC. Adding UCLA, USC, OREGON AND WASHINGTON would make ESPN redo their TV contract with the ACC. The coaches are hating the travel. We did it once, I can’t imagine doing it 3-4 times a season.

At this point… just whatever.

I’ll just feel like an old man shaking my fist at the clouds if I bother worrying about and inevitably complaining about this stuff.

Have football spin off on its own so that schools can return to logical, regional conferences with some actual history.

That's my fantasy.

How much is the buy out? If it outweighs the travel. They won’t leave.

Washington and Oregon outright rejected the ACC once already. They have zero interest in the ACC.
