Is there anyway possible fo UConn football not to be drag on the ACC? NO!

So if FSU and Clemson leave, the ACC must then replace them with schools that make sense for football. That means, schools that: (not in a definite order of most important down) have history with ACC schools in football; have a history making and winning bowls; have a  history of filling their stadium; have close access to a large number of recruits; that are state land grant or flagship schools; large schools with lots of alums.

If that ACC can take from the Big 12, Utah, Arizona St and Arizona should top the list, with TCU, Baylor, Texas Tech, WVU, Cincinnati, and UCF also worth a very long look. Also worth adding is USF.

Of the schools I've named, only TCU and Baylor are private, and they are located in football-obsessed, football talent RICH TX and have major history with SMU. The 3 former Pac schools and USF, all huge, are AAU schools. Cincinnati is overall the #2 state school in OH and #2 college for sports in OH, which produces a huge amount of talent in both revenue sports. The Backyard Brawl is a very hot rivalry and WVU also has meaningful history with Cuse and VT.

NO to even thinking about UConn or Temple.
