I think this may be a first step toward leveling the playing field.
VT had already fallen what? A hundred million dollars behind similar tier SEC and B1G school? And the gap was increasing each year. There were a few ACC programs that could hang in there, for a while, but VT has been hurting for a while now. Clemson could keep it together by going balls out and killing it, but they would have suffered soon enough by being down that much money. Of course, 15 man ACC basketball programs could keep up…for a while longer. But, the SEC and B1G were catching up there too.
This break away new thing is VT’s best chance at getting to the upper tiers of college sports again.
Thanks Swofford. Thanks Greensboro. Thank you ACC. [Post edited by Backtothetop at 07/25/2021 11:28PM]
