What's this?

Hope They are Forced to Go Some Place

The changes are coming obviously and the SEC is leading the way. I hope ND will be forced to join a conference. Frankly, I don't care where they join. They should not be in the ACC without being a full pledged member. They need to be taken off their throne as "King of Football" and be forced to the same rules every other university in the nation faces. I'm sick of the Irish and really sick of the "weak ACC". VT needs to move on from this conference and I don't think there would be any place like the SEC. You want to be in the best football conference and hands down the SEC is the marker!

Swofford bet the wad on ND, as TerryD said, it was a foolish bet. ** -- Stech 08/08/2021 08:11AM

Short term I agree, long term if they don’t join the ACC, it’s a disaster. ** -- Stech 08/08/2021 08:21AM

They aren't joining the ACC in football, so... -- EDGEMAN 08/08/2021 08:25AM

Probably so, time to move on, 15 yrs times $30,000,000+ a yr says cut loses -- Stech 08/08/2021 08:47AM

No it wasnt -- VaTech2021 08/08/2021 01:46AM

True, but neither VT or UVA can afford to be $30,000,000 behind for 15 yrs, -- Stech 08/08/2021 09:19AM
