history has many examples of very smart people making very dumb decisions...why should history not be repeated here. After reading most of the blogs; reading our posts; gathering information from a relative in very senior position at NCstate, I can say that THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY CHANGE EVEN WITH THE SEC/BIG 12 bowl announcement. Believe it was the Sugar bowl before...and it certainly will not be the bowl that the NC is chosen from.
If this is in fact about money, then can someone please identify why the ACC seems to have numbers floating around from $12-$25 million dollars a team/year. Does any of these schools have a CFO or financial audit panel that knows what is going on. Smart people make dumb decisions because they do not have the factual information...they have information to back what they want to do.
It is amazing, that we spend all this time debating decisions and might have beens...when its all BS to begin with.
