I know that there are a couple of Wake Fans on this site


WF has 47 conference championships since joining the conference in 1953. That is 47 over a span of 62 years. or about 3/4 per year

VT has 18 championships since joining in 2004, a span of 12 years or 1.5 per year.

Astonishingly, 23 of Wake's conference championships are in Men's and Women's Golf. One sport of which we have had for just 1 year.

In just 12 years we have 2 championships in both Men's and Woman's indoor track, 1 in men's outdoor, 2 in women's outdoor, and 2 in wrestling

in these sports Wake in 62 years can claim exactly zero conference championships

Wake owns 8 national championships. the most recent Men's Soccer in 2007, and Women's Field Hockey in 2002-2003-2004

In terms of golf, we have 12 conference championships, So Con x 4, Metro x 2, A10 x 2, BE x 3 and Acc in 2007

I am just pointing out it would not be wise to over value a school with less than 50,000 living alumni and it's importance to the conference in 2016, much less 2020.

In terms of expansion, I think if we can bring in ND full time, the best choices are UCONN and WVU.

I like Wake, I do not like WVU, but how much stronger would the ACC look less WF and plus WVU?
