Message: [QUOTE="jasjr, post: 421805, member: 446"] Yes, of course. But I don't think we have five years of FSU being happy just because we add the 'Ville. I believe we have to strike the best deal very soon before other attractive schools possibly become unavailable. Getting ND to go all in will require us to let them basically pick the 16th member (yes, alost let them pick them) and then we need to let them be a big part of the power play - Approaching the last team, part of the negotiations with TV contracts, part of the solution and creation of the ACC Network etc. The psychology of this is very powerful in terms of their overall commitment to the ACC Conference. Unless we make a bold move with ND fully committed and add a strong 16th team many ACC teams could still be low hanging fruit and jump to one of the Big 3 almost at any time, especially our more vulnerable and or interested teams in other conferences.
