Not much to kill. 2018 recruiting ranks: BC #71, Wake #64, Duke #63,

UVA #59, Syr #51, Pitt #48, GT #44. Horrible. They aren't beating out many P5 teams for recruits under current arrangement. Could argue it is hard to make that step up out of purgatory. Well, they won't be getting much worse classes. Get the right coach/infrastructure and you can win an easy division (by P5 standards) and play in ACC Division 1. And let's not pretend ACC Division 1 is full of Clemsons. Not hard to be in top half if you are competent.

It's time. Promotion/Relegation within ACC -- Colonel Jessup 08/17/2021 12:20PM

Scheduling would probably be a big reason why the schools wouldn't -- VTHokie2000 08/18/2021 08:57AM

Yep. And if you think cheating is bad now…. ** -- Femoyer Hokie 08/19/2021 11:11AM

Relegation may work for professional teams -- Tombo 08/17/2021 7:11PM

That makes it more fun, IMO -- Colonel Jessup 08/18/2021 12:29PM

I agree with the part of your post about thinking outside the box -- Tombo 08/19/2021 10:39AM

Like the idea in theory BUT... -- cburgroop 08/17/2021 3:30PM

Yes, the poor football programs certainly want their equal footing -- Colonel Jessup 08/17/2021 4:29PM

Interesting. Wouldn’t that kill recruiting for the relegated teams? -- HokieNeal 08/17/2021 1:20PM
