Message: [QUOTE="WoadBlue, post: 5166627, member: 1145"] Calford makes the ACC truly national. What we now need is somebody wanting to show a whole bunch of college sports to buy into ESPN's contract for the ACC and willing to pony up so the ACC can expand. I assume that ESOPN would be happy to facilitate FSU getting into the SEC (and thus still under ESPN) and the ACC should be wiling to do that if ESPN also makes things so the ACC gets what it needs. I say that should start with Utah, Arizonan AZ St. All 3 need some close ties to CA for both top[ students as well as sports recruiting, and we have Calford. All three have very large numbers of alums living in CA. The ACC also needs at least 1 of the current TX schools in the Big 12. And having both WVU and Cincy would be great for old rivalries revived (Louisville-Cincy and Backyard Brawl and other other WVU old time foes), and being in football rich OH would be good for ACC recruiting.
