Message: [QUOTE="Scotch, post: 4724184, member: 700"] This is a fascinating post because it's all about timing. Right now the ACC is stronger and could potentially poach the B12, but the poached teams wouldn't add significant value and may not be desirable to the most valuable ACC teams (UNC, UVA, Clemson, FSU, etc.). So you have this divergence of motives in which the lower level ACC teams may want to pursue numbers for future survival sake while the top ACC teams may not care. Obviously the geography limitations also play a role and in addition to more money the ACC would have to really sell some B12 teams on a structure that made sense (West division vs. East division, etc.). But this really comes down to who is going to absorb who when the music stops. [/QUOTE]
