If the conference was a dream conference and timing was pre-1990,

Syracuse
Ped-State
Rutgers (need a door mat - could be dropped)
Temple (two door mats is even better - could be dropped)
Pitt
WVU
VATech (but Beamer had not yet established the Chokies as a perennial winner/choker)
FSU (Bobby Bowden was on his way to building a powerhouse AND had extensive ties to the northern etams from his days at WVU)
Miami (Thug U in it's prime)
ND (Not happening then, not happening now, if the playoffs expand to 8 or more teams, not happening in my lifetime)

Possible additions:
Army (Respectable, hard playing, great people, great tradition great setting)
Navy (Respectable, hard playing, great people, close proximity to Baltimore/DC metro)
Maryland (not likely to leave the ACC)
UVA (See Maryland)
ECU (Not a prime team back then but would have been a black eye to the ACC))
Louisville (they had a team but didn't really know how to play football)
Cincy (See Louisville, within good recruiting grounds, too)
Tulane (Road trips, need I say more?)

Just say "NO!"
UConn
Villanova
Every other Big East team that played less than D1A football

NOTES:
FSU and Miami were indies back then, could have had both and the ACC would have joined us.
