The ACC "444" conference committee apparently have been considering their options for quite some time. I believe they made a bold and excellent choice to become a true north-south Atlantic Coast Conference.

I also believe the Big 10 didn't expand east because of
1) their midwest identity
2) primary desire to add Nebraska as team 12 for a play off game
3) lack of consensus to add 2 additional northeast teams
4) assuming they could control the pace of any further expansion and wanting to keep their options for a possible future UT or ND add.

Finally, Tranghese comments don't reflect well on his character or leadership skills:
