What "culturally" is important and how are you seeing -- Pylons 03/07/2018 07:16AM
We'd be up there, but UF, UGa, aTm and Vandy are also very good schools... -- Calamitous 03/06/2018 11:29PM
Academically, the Big 10 (14) but.... -- Old Line Hokie 03/06/2018 3:58PM
The B1G is a great conference athletically & academically, but lacks rival- -- Stech 03/07/2018 07:33AM
PSU and MD would instantly become rivals. PSU likely more for VT than them -- reestuart 03/07/2018 08:25AM
I would be very happy with that conference ** -- Calamitous 03/06/2018 9:31PM
If schools start deciding that academic conferences -- VTHokie2000 03/06/2018 12:23PM
Academic conferences? -- Pylons 03/06/2018 5:06PM
"Academic conferences" already exist though -- VTHokie2000 03/06/2018 5:28PM
Of course there are alliances, as I indicated in my post -- Pylons 03/06/2018 5:46PM
My point was that athletic conferences don't need to have -- VTHokie2000 03/07/2018 12:45PM
Agreed. It's already that way without anyone deciding anything -- Pylons 03/07/2018 1:06PM
But is academics really independent though? -- VTHokie2000 03/07/2018 1:24PM
Academics is absolutely independent -- Pylons 03/07/2018 4:36PM
If academics has no bearing on who joins an athletic conference -- VTHokie2000 03/07/2018 5:08PM
I wouldn't put much stock into what the ACC did sixty years ago -- Pylons 03/07/2018 5:31PM
Back in 2011 Brett McMurphy sent out the following tweet -- VTHokie2000 03/08/2018 12:04AM
So you have a sportswriter guessing about the "likely" reason -- Pylons 03/08/2018 10:30AM
Yes, a sportswriter is speculating based on the Brett McMurphy tweet -- VTHokie2000 03/08/2018 10:48AM
Instead of grasping at maybe's and might haves, you might just pull out -- Pylons 03/08/2018 5:15PM
I agree the reason WVU expressed interest in the ACC and SEC -- VTHokie2000 03/08/2018 5:52PM

I think you are spot on... -- 2hhoop3 03/06/2018 11:25AM
Athletics wouldn't be a driver -- Pylons 03/06/2018 11:20AM
Its not like they don't have a lot of good academic schools in the SEC -- EDGEMAN 03/06/2018 11:24AM
Yeah, if the ACC relationship went sour, Big Ten would be a great fit. ** -- reestuart 03/06/2018 09:45AM
ACC is and should be home! ** -- Lakeridgehokie 03/06/2018 09:12AM
I agree but it was hypothetical ** -- SoCloseHokie 03/06/2018 09:48AM
Either would suck for the fans -- EDGEMAN 03/06/2018 08:55AM
If VT ended up in the Big Ten East, it wouldn't be that bad. ** -- reestuart 03/06/2018 09:44AM
Rutgers vs BC - Not sure they is any win in that! ** -- Lakeridgehokie 03/06/2018 10:37AM
Rutgers, more specifically their leadership, is a boil.... -- 2hhoop3 03/06/2018 11:32AM
True! I didn't even think of them, but since we are required to -- reestuart 03/06/2018 10:42AM
Most likely Indiana would move to the West and be in the same -- VTHokie2000 03/06/2018 12:18PM
That would be a whole lot of fun. ** -- reestuart 03/06/2018 1:12PM
It would be fun, but would it be more fun than this option? -- VTHokie2000 03/06/2018 1:23PM
Much prefer ACC. Want nothing to do with SEC. ** -- reestuart 03/06/2018 08:03AM

I wake up every morning worried this is the day UNC embarrasses us again. ** -- Byting Gobbler 03/23/2018 10:09PM
I guess I still don't equate "us" with the ACC. -- MP4VT2004 03/23/2018 10:24PM
