Let's look at WVU for a minute

WVU, like VT, is one of the 2 schools in the top 20 all time NCAA D1 records who has not won a National Championship

WVU, unlike VT, is not ranked in engineering, has NO cadet corps, and is a mid range academic school unlike VT.

WVU is from a state that is totally illegal (reverence Supreme court vs Abraham Lincoln), which is the only US State to have less people now than it had in 1950, and the ONLY state that has begged it's parent state (Virginia) to take it back, and has been denied.

Honestly, I can only hope that Vt can find a reason to cancel all future games with the school in Morgantown. They offer VT absolutely NOTHING, but maybe can recruit in a real state if they Play us (Virginia). tech has future games with real schools like Michigan, Purdue and Penn State. We have absolutely no use to put WVU on our schedule.

West Virginia and their college are abominations to the state of Virginia and any real school in the Commonwealth.

SI: Is the Big 12 set for major change or expansion? -- VTHOKIE21020 12/27/2015 8:52PM

If they do not IMO -- BigCrumpy 12/29/2015 11:01AM

BYU and Cincinnati appear to be the 2 front-runners.... -- Old Line Hokie 12/27/2015 9:40PM

WVU's distance East is an issue for the Big XII. -- HOO86 12/27/2015 11:29PM

You are absolutely right -- BigCrumpy 12/29/2015 11:09AM

I wonder if the B12 would just let the ACC take WVU without -- Mr. Touchdown 12/28/2015 8:06PM

Let's look at WVU for a minute -- BigCrumpy 12/29/2015 12:13PM

ACC has academic Sharing -- BigCrumpy 12/29/2015 12:04PM

What about Louisville? -- Mr. Touchdown 01/04/2016 09:44AM

The Big XII needs to decide what it wants to be when it grows up first. -- HOO86 12/28/2015 8:34PM

I'm sure there are some Big 12 schools that wished WVU never joined... -- Old Line Hokie 12/28/2015 10:49AM

Probably just a lament that the B12 couldn't be more proactive -- Marooned 12/28/2015 8:48PM

Greg Swaim was a big one complaining about missing on Louisville. -- HOO86 12/28/2015 5:32PM

UL made its commitment to improving its academic standing clear to the ACC -- Marooned 12/28/2015 8:39PM

I hate WVU, but they should be in the ACC -- Bashful Baron 12/28/2015 10:43AM

Similar to Louisville, WVU is the professional sports team for those fans. -- HOO86 12/28/2015 5:55PM

Shoulda been ACC #12. So easy to see, only the ACC could screw it up. -- chuckd4vt 12/28/2015 3:23PM

I don't believe MD would've stayed if WVU came in instead of BC -- Marooned 12/28/2015 8:30PM

Agreed. Dr. Wallace Loh is working to transform MD into his own image. -- HOO86 12/29/2015 12:32PM

Yep - the passion in this conference is blah. ** -- HokieMJL 12/28/2015 1:17PM

I agree, WVU would be a good football addition to the ACC... -- Old Line Hokie 12/28/2015 10:57AM

And a lousy addition to the conference overall ** -- marcbvtgm 12/28/2015 3:53PM

I see some other benefits for having WVU. -- HOO86 12/28/2015 5:44PM

That's not much. Ultimately WVU would be a net $$ taker, not giver. ** -- marcbvtgm 01/01/2016 9:31PM

Butts in seats and TV viewers is the biggest. ** -- chuckd4vt 12/29/2015 12:47PM

Butts in the seats means little...as is the TV audience WVU brings ** -- marcbvtgm 01/01/2016 9:29PM

EXHIBIT A for why the ACC is second tier right now. ** -- chuckd4vt 12/28/2015 5:17PM

They should have taken Louisville for the airport itself -- Hamburger 12/28/2015 12:19AM
