That is incredibly fast if true. Though I have to think that SU told the ACC that the only way they would do this is if it was already done so as not to be subjected to a repeat of 2003.

have looked thru all the twits and did not find Cuse anywhere...help
So UCONN will NOT be in the ACC in any way shape or form.

I disagree. I am in sports law, and a number of well placed people I've spoken to have stated that UConn already has a conditional offer from the ACC.
I read and heard that the only way a school fills out an application is IF its already a yes vote. That no conference would have a school fill out an application then reject them.
Also been doing some reading and I guess Swofford hates UCONN with a passion. UCONN sued the ACC in 2003 when BC left (which I totally forgot about to be honest) and this guy has never forgave them. So UCONN will NOT be in the ACC in any way shape or form.
I took sports law, but that has nothing to do with the fact the ACC isn't going to expand to 16 unless its Texas and Notre Dame as indies in football and members in everything else. What are the provisions in this conditional offer for UConn. in fact if the ACC would poach another BE team now it would be 1. WVU 2. Louisville 3. then UConn 4. Rutgers.I disagree.

Yes, I would love to see WVU included. I think they would be a great fit with us and Pitt.I took sports law, but that has nothing to do with the fact the ACC isn't going to expand to 16 unless its Texas and Notre Dame as indies in football and members in everything else.

At $20 mill exit fee, VT and FSU are going no placeHere's the problem... If FSU/VT both bolt for the SEC, then the ACC arguably is not any better in football than the BE w/ Kansas/TCU/KState.
You can say that the ACC hodge-podge with Syracuse is better than the alternative but, believe me, people outside the ACC are going to put 2+2 together. How long before the ACC's BCS status is called into question?

Prediction: The nation is apparently heading towards four 16-team super conferences -- ostensibly the PAC16, Big 10 (whatever it will be called), SEC and ACC. There will be a lot of continual shuffling among random Big 12, Big East and some other teams (CUSA, MWC, Big West, etc) until these conferences are filled. My guess is that WVU and UConn (and maybe RU and Louisville) will wind up somewhere. Also, Notre Dame.

Source: ACC presidents could vote to accept Syracuse and Pitt as early as Sunday. It'll be a formality. 'It's done,' the source said.

The ACC is about to get even better in hoops
That (or 5x16) has been true for over a decade.
