So long as the SEC can load up on ineligible players, gray shirt, and pay the kids on the side with no retribution, there really isn't much of a chance. And, it's not like UNC where classes are made up, most northern schools expect their students to show up for class and earn their own grades. As to "overinvested in the northeast", do you really want to give up about 40+ million (NY, PA, MA and New England) people in the viewership pool? That TV deal would drop considerably. The only real "overinvestment" is in NC with VA a distant second, and the NC schools are grandfathered in as they were all original schools in the ACC. [/QUOTE]
