Message: [QUOTE="Orangefizz, post: 4720504, member: 5608"] I see conference realignment happening in 4 steps. The first step is the big 12 will add Arizona, ASU and Utah. Once this is done the Big Ten will add Cal, Stanford, Oregon, Washington. Then the mountain west will add Oregon State and Washington State. Finally I see the ACC adding UConn with a 50% partial Share arrangement for 5 years. The additional money goes into a pool for top performers like Florida State and Clemson. That would be the end of realignment until the early 2030’s when the ACC grant of rights is closer to expiring. Then we will see another round of expansion with the BIG, SEC and big 12 for the remaining ACC schools. My prediction is Syracuse will ultimately end up in the big 12 conference. A total of 20 teams will be split into pods of 5 based on geography. The ACC schools that will be in the greatest danger of being left out are Boston College, Wake Forest, Duke, and possibly Syracuse. [/QUOTE]
