The absolute best options are Notre Dame AND Penn State to the ACC. But we all know that is a pipe dream at best.

You push hard to get at least one, with ND being the first target. Maybe pitch them at the same time? Could be appealling to both knowing the other would come.

Knowing you probably, at best, could only get one, you fill in the remaining slot with UConn.

If you can't get either, you fill in the last two slots with UConn and either Rutgers or Lville or Kansas.

Obviously the most likely scenario would be UConn and RU, but I think it will take a while for the ACC to make that move. They have to know 100% that ND and PSU are off the table before they cap out at 16 with UConn and 1 other.

UConn and RU are going to be "gap fillers" when all is said and done. They will find a place at the table when all the chips fall, but they won't have much leverage to get the seat that they want. It might work out for them in the end, but they won't be the one's controlling their own fate.
