Message: [QUOTE="Btstimpy, post: 507363, member: 2043"] After following the ACC closely for 35 years, the only time I've seen the ACC put academics aside was 2 months ago when the ACC invited Louisville. WVU has tried a few times to join the ACC. They tried in 1953 and were turned down because the North and South Carolina schools thought Morgantown was too hard to get to. At that time air travel was not that common for college teams. Lately it has been academics as well as the bad reputation of the gameday experience for visiting fans in Morgantown. I know for a fact that Virginia Tech does not miss playing WVU in football. I noticed though that VT went to Morgantown this season in basketball, so maybe their opinion is changing back toward playing WVU again. Now that the ACC has broken the ice with Louisville, WVU should be considered again. [/QUOTE]
