1) How much will potential realignment and the ACC getting the shaft impact recruiting? If I were Georgia, I would tell Chris Cole that he might be playing the likes of ECU in two years instead of Bama and Texas. – jjhokie2

Chris Coleman: I don’t think it would have a huge effect until it actually happened. The Chris Coles of Virginia have been going to the Georgias of college football for quite awhile now, even when realignment wasn’t being discussed. If that’s who he chooses, it won’t be anything new.

Gabriel Williams: Pitt
Gerard Johnson: UVa
Eric Mensah: UVa, Maryland
Marcellus Barnes: FSU, Ole Miss
Chanz Wiggins:  Duke, Maryland
Emmett Laws: Pitt
