Message: [QUOTE="Btstimpy, post: 864827, member: 2043"] At this point in time, I'm glad that the Virginia Tech invite happened like it did. I think had Virginia Tech not gotten an ACC invite in 2002, they might have gotten an SEC invite in 2010. I don't want the SEC in the state. The UConn thing to me for the ACC is to further secure the East and the New York City/New England area as an ACC area. UConn also brings good basketball, which the ACC likes. The ACC runs the risk of the Big Ten further expanding into that region and competing for mindshare. But as you state, the Big Ten is integrating Rutgers and Maryland at this time, and some of those midwestern schools are underwhelmed by those additions. The Big Ten might be gun shy about adding another school without football tradition. [/QUOTE]
