Money has destroyed college football. Maybe just stop with the "student athlete" farce, make it minor league pro football and stop making the kids go to school.
If they want to take classes fine if they don’t pay them and call them an employee. The entire “they are getting an education” was a farce for at least the big time football schools 1/2 of them most likely never stepped foot in a classroom. Smart ones that knew they were not going to the NFL or NBA did.

Besides geographically, Louisville is better than most everyone besides 3 or 4 teams in football and they wouldn’t have to force a rivalry because Kentucky is already there
Big 12 would get Louisville Pitt Virginia Tech and NC State They are not getting SMU it’s pointless they already have a Dallas Ft Worth Market which is TCU and I Don’t See Texas Tech Baylor Houston and TCU allow them in the conference
So true. Adding more southern schools to the SEC only delutes their product. Consider that Georgia just beat Clemson 34-3 and FSU started the season 0-3 it is delusional for the ACC to imagine these schools bring value to the SEC. The ACC is trash and will probably dissolve but ironically FSU and Clemson may among the schools that are stuck in the league.
SEC: FSU, Clemson, UNC, NC State Big 12: Louisville, Pitt, GT, Duke, Syracuse, VT B1G: Miami, VA, Stanford, Cal, ND* ND would strike a similar agreement with the big 12 that they had with the ACC, otherwise they’d have to join either the SEC or B1G
I can see Cal and Stanford back in the Pac which would give them 4 schools they could add a San Diego State and maybe Gonzaga and one more which could make it a viable conference again.
@@47knivesBoth schools have some big time diners so I don’t see them dining that although it would make sense for both. Neither have any hope in football and might as well make the effort in basketball where they could improve.
Also these have so many bad takes. Louisville is clearly B12 so will Duke. Miami to the b10 that’s a joke. VT is definitely getting picked to the SEC. B10 and Sec was reportedly looking into UVA most likely b10
There’s no way the SEC takes NC State or Louisville. The Big12 turned down SMU last year which is how they ended up in the ACC. A lot of these lower tier, left over ACC schools will end up in G5 eventually.

As far as the UNC System board any school trying to move to another conference has to get approval from the system board and not get vetoed from the president of the board.
They can easily play each other annually in football and twice a year in basketball while being in separate conferences. Same for all their Olympic sports.
This is a fairly uneducated video. You're putting teams into the SEC in the Big 10 that are clearly Big 12 schools. Outside of Clemson and Florida State, and UNC, the ACC upper echelon is very similar to the Big 12. Bottom of the ACC is not valuable to the Big 12, and would be a net negative. You overvalued the top of the ACC and undervalued the Big 12 conference as a whole.
As long as you are playing what if . How about a conference that has major media markets , historic rivals , strong fan bases, short travel distances, Competitive Games, The new Big East Football only Conference Boston College, Syracuse, Pitt, Temple, Army, Navy, Rutgers, UMass, UConn, Delaware , James Madison Maryland, W Virginia . A regional conference with strong media, fan base that makes sense . That people in the northeast would be interested in no offense to other conferences but if your not from those areas you dont care . It works both ways Thats what these schools should do if the acc breaks up
Why would the B1G want a small private school located in the southern most state of the Continental United States at the end of a 400 mile long peninsula who doesn’t even have an on campus stadium. Add to that the football team has only been barely decent for the last 20 years, the stadium is usually half empty on game day, and the average day time temperature is close to 90 degrees in September and October. And on top of those concerns, the TV ratings have been poor for many years which makes me question just how much Fox is really interested in the Hurricanes. Miami will be lucky to get an invite to the Big 12 and if that doesn’t happen, they could end up in Conference USA playing FIU and Jacksonville State. The flight time from Miami to Seattle is longer than the flight time from Boston to Dublin Ireland across the Atlantic Ocean. Just saying.
Came across your videos by accident. Your videos are awesome. I now follow you on X. Really like your political videos as well! So my question is does the ACC survive? Looks like UCONN is about to join the Big 12. I know there was bad blood between ACC teams and UCONN from 20 some years ago. But that’s all water under the bridge. Three or four ACC teams are on UCONN’s football schedule every year. But for some reason they still don’t want UCONN in the conference. Phillips is not a proactive guy. He will regret not adding UCONN if/when there is a mass exodus. I’m a RFK jr guy. Your coverage of him moving to the Trump camp was excellent! He made the correct decision. I will be voting Trump / Vance / Kennedy in November!
Everyone keeps talking about "UNC" rising football program. That's true, as I've been reminded for the last 30 years, they are on the rise. When are they going to get there? NC State is a far better fit for the SEC. If it's football dollars you are talking? NC state is the best NC team. They travel better. They have better TV ratings. They have a way better fan base. UNC is also a better academic fit for the B!G. No way Duke goes to the SEC as this is about football Revenue. Duke would be better going the way of Gonzaga or Seton Hall. Focus on Basketball and don't worry about football.
B1G - Miami, North Carolina, Virginia, Notre Dame, Stanford, California SEC - NC State, Virginia Tech, Florida State, Clemson XII - Louisville, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Georgia Tech, Duke, Wake Forest, SMU, Boston College
No power conference is going above 20 members: B1G grabs UVA and then waits for ND. SEC grabs FSU, Clemson, UNC and one more ACC school. Big 12 grabs Louisville, Pitt, Miami, and one more ACC school. Three power conferences with 20 members each. Game. Set. Match.
Cal and Stanford back home to the PAC. Come back home to the West Coast Cal and Stanford. The PAC misses you. And bring our beloved Utah with you while we’re at it.
Academically, Cal & Stanford are attractive, & they would give the west coast B1G teams other teams, but Cal literally brings almost nothing to the table. You can add Stanford but only with the caveat that ND comes along. Cal & Stanford would probably go to the G5 Pac 12 with Oregon State/Washington St. These moves are about football now & Cal & Stanford just don't bring much to the table.
FSU will join the Big Ten Conference (B1G) as soon as their exit from the ACC is finalized. (Provided something shocking at the last minute.) 20 sounds like the cap during this current set of media contracts. So, two more Big Ten schools and four more SEC schools before 2030/4.
Miami,ND, also big east. ND,Miami, Duke,Uconn,Army,Syracuse, California and Stanford will from a football alliance of independents that negotiate their own football deals
Only ND has enough might to be able to get its own TV deal. Rest are not really watchable, especially Cal and Stanford. They might go back to a rebuilt Pac 10
@@logsdon36 The BIG12 is already too large, too wide, and too Texas for a Tier 2 conference. A Texas school makes sense for the ACC managing its decline to that Tier 2 level, but not for the BIG12.
@@logsdon36no, Texas Tech Baylor and TCU have worked for a long time to keep SMU and Houston out of the power 5. It's more competition, and SMU doesn't add anything.
Actually, it was Texas Tech and Oklahoma State and said no to Cal and Stanford. They rejected the two after those schools would not let Texas technoisseur join the pac-12 when the Big 12 first destabilized.
Depend on what do you mean by imploded, ACC could simply to add new teams from AAC or Big 12. SEC already denied FSU and Clemson ,but they did want Virginia Tech and North Carolina State. Tbh, ACC need new commissioner while UNC, Duke, and Virginia need to join Big 10 because they're cancer to ACC like they screamed want to be elite academic while ignored best interests to make ACC one of top conferences. They're easy replaced by West Virginia, Connecticut, and Cincinnati then ACC can focus on natural rivalry and good overall athletic program teams. Maryland and Rutgers might be difficult to lure despite they have natural rivalries in ACC.
a) One always first targets the state flagships. b) T-Road hasn't run he ACC for decades. All of the failed expansions with old BIGEAST schools were pushed by the football schools over some degree of T-Road objection. You offer junk analysis.
Duke is way more valuable with basketball than any sport NC State would bring. Duke has also started to improve its football program. They would be taken over NC State any day of the week.

@@jeffmorgan9337 I might have to disagree with you on the value of the ACC without FSU/Clemson. You must not be aware of the value of the biggest brand in college athletics, UNC. They are worth more than FSU and Clemson combined. When it comes time for ESPN to renegotiate, they will increase the ACC payout to an even higher level, almost on a par with the P2. Their value might not be as obvious but because they have a higher ceiling than either FSU or Clemson, ESPN will be opening their wallets. I have that on the authority of the poster you are replying to.

UNC-Duke will play each other in Basketball as long as the games are still played in college. Only question will be if it is one or two games per year. They are 8 miles a part. Don't know why you keep asking this question. FSU plays UF, SC plays Clemson, GT plays Ga, Louisville plays Kentucky, Va plays VT and that is just to name a few. All are in different conferences. Big 12 has talked about a Basketball Super Conference. A lot of the ACC would think that is appealing. UNC not so much.
I will say if fsu goes to the sec it’ll make that florida vs fsu game even bigger every year. Cuz lately it hasnt meant much. Seems like every time one team is good the other one is so so or bad. But this would make it to where if one team loses it could screw them ten times more now
All Coasts Conference (ACC) forms east & west divisions by adding Oregon St, Washington St, San Diego St., Colorado St., Tulane and/or Rice. Stanford, Cal+ SMU to the west division. Also, possible addition of UCLA if revenue sharing adjusted among Power4. Also, if revenue sharing adjusted among Power 4 then Nebraska to Big XII (XX).
Another great take. FSU/Clemson identify well in the SEC. One point to consider: The SEC is really sensitive & careful about targeting teams/states/fan bases that identify with the South. So, culture is important to them. Sure, money is a priority, but they can get money teams w/o compromising the culture aspect. It is why so many want Vandy to be booted from the SEC.
With all the views you are now getting, you are going to have to change your handle to "Manic Ginger." Congratulations on your rise to big time numbers. The only thing I know about this issue is that the SEC wants North Carolina down the road because there are four top 50 media markets in the state, and the prior commissioner to Greg Sankey talked about Virginia many years ago, because of two large media markets there with DC and the Tidewater (Norfolk/Portsmouth/Newport News) area. And, the Richmond market has grown quite a bit. Commissioner Sankey talked about this at the meetings in Nashville last year, saying that the SEC wants to stay at 16 in the near future but would revisit this issue if it was forced to be done sooner than they would like. He has talked about not cannibalizing markets, so Clemson and Florida State figure to not be on the SEC's radar (and there are probably enough school presidents to blackball both schools. North Carolina and Virginia would be the most likely 17 and 18 for the SEC.
Kentucky will NEVER allow louisville into the SEC. B1G just wont accept louisville. My guess is big12. Lol as a louisville fan and grad, im used to us having to find conferences
The SEC has been telling FSU for 70 years we will let you join our conference. They are not going to the SEC. Florida has not wanted FSU in the SEC for more than 50 years. The other SEC schools do not want FSU.
Notre Dame is the big piece in the puzzle, once they decide what makes sense to them, the realignment game will start to settle down. They value their independence and so far it has been working for them. If they joined the Big Ten that could make the Big Ten Conference even richer (or where ever they decide).
Clemson and FSU reportedly are favorites to join the B1G. The SEC doesn't seem to want to add more teams from Florida and South Carolina is the rumor. They were fine with it when it came to a brand like Texas while already having A&M. Stanford and Cal to the B1G make no sense at this point. They could've already taken both schools at a very reduced rate but opted not to. Why would they do that now. Cal especially is just a deadweight program. That team likely would end up in the MWC or re-imagined PAC which is MWC 2.0. Stanford could get into the B1G if ND joins the B1G and wants it. Again, the bay area is big, but nobody cares about Stanford athletics. If the B1G are trying to add teams in the west then Utah makes sense. Louisville seems destined to the B12. UNC and Virginia, to the SEC is also a rumor floating out there.
Virginia Tech not getting into at least the big 12 is laughable. They have a better football program. They will compete for a playoff spot this coming year. And an SEC style fan base.
This is all wild speculation, filled with contradictions, ifs, maybes, unlikelys and fantasies. For many, this is a fun exercise, but in reality it is a total waste of time.
Cfb is finally getting some order as far as conference realignment goes. Time to separate the contenders from the pretenders for a better on field product
I think we need to remember the main motivator for both the big10 and big12 is tv revenue. Aka metro markets. With that said, I think getting in a major market then don't already have is the qualifier for any addition. So what are the biggest metro big10 is missing? Atlanta North Carolina/Virginia Texas - Dallas/Houston/Austin/San Antonio Florida- Miami / Tallahassee I don't see a scenario where anyone outside of those metro, or their rivals/state tag-a-longs are seriously considered.
It's probably too late to change conferences this season so they'll probably stuck with the 2 team Pac 12 for this season unless they're be willing to be independent until they find a new conference.
What’s gonna happen is there is gonna be a overall NCAA college football league similar to Soccer in the UK where the top 20 teams play a season against each other and the two worst of the top 20 get relegated to a lower league et cetera et cetera. Otherwise there is no rhyme or reason conferences today.
Well legally NC State Is bound to UNC by state law, so it's both or neither you can't pick one off unless the state legislature decides otherwise. Also VA has a similar law with UVA and VTech
Neither these states or these schools are in any position to make any demands. When ESPN cancels the ACC media right contract, it will be every school for itself. I can see the AAC willing to take all 4 schools, but not the B1G or the SEC or even the Big 12.
Miami has ZERO loyalty to the ACC, they only joined to be with Florida State in the first place. I know Florida may be adverse to Miami joining (Florida being afraid of the Canes is a running joke in Coral Gables). I think the SEC as a whole would likely be enamored with a monopoly of Florida's "Big 3" in terms of recruiting high school hotbed Florida. On a similar note, adding Cal and Stanford would give the Big Ten a stronghold on California recruiting
William C. Friday ran the UNC system for 30 years. He would rollover in his grave if UNC or NCSU went to the SEC. Now the Legislature is trying to attach these two schools at the hip. The Legislature has gotten involved in these University sports before. They forced the 4 ACC schools in N.C. to play ECU, App State and others in a regular cycle. It is a lose lose for the ACC schools. Hurts in recruiting if you lose. Does not help in recruiting at all. These other schools circle a target around these games.
That bill that you mention has not even been passed and signed into law as of yet. The legislature has used the threat of passing laws before, but has never gone threw with it in the end and even if the law is passed it does not mean it will survive legal challenges.
@@EyeOfTheWatcher Legal challenges? Like what? A court would deny the state the power to administer state entities in the way they feel is best for the state? Really?
Nc state runs the north Carolina state government they will 100% use the power of the government purse to force unc and NC state together and sec and big10 don't want the wolf pack
This is almost always about TV Markets. For the SEC it would make sense to take a North Carolina school and a Virginia school. Because the SEC places football first, the Virginia school would be Virginia Tech. The North Carolina school would most likely be NC State. It's not that Clemson and FSU are not valuable programs, they just don't add TV markets. The SEC already has the SC markets with USC and the Florida markets with UF.
You have these Conferences taking teams. The ACC IS DEAD 💀. ESPN & Disney are broke. The TV Media FOX & ESPN WILL CHOOSE 2-4 teams that get into the Power 3 Conferences
I don't think any of these conferences get to 20 except the Big 10. Espn has serious money issues, so they aren't paying for all these schools. The Big 12 aren't taking the schools you chose. SEC would take FSU & Clemson, that's it.
With all this expansion going on I would not be surprised if The ACC changed their name to either the American Coast Conference, the American Conference, or The APC aka American Pacific Conference.
Future of the ACC: Boston College, Syracuse, Pitt, Temple, Tulane, Duke, Georgia Tech, Cal, Stanford, UConn, Memphis, Virginia, Oregon State, Washington State, San Diego State
Duke has been pretty darn good in football the last couple years. They have made some major investments in the program. Still a lot of schools might end up just dropping football if they are not in a big conference. It is really too expensive to compete with the Big 10 and SEC.
The SEC wants to expand it's footprint. They are all over getting UNC. You have to think about adding value. UNC is their number one target. Even all the SEC reporters like Finebaum have said that.
Finebaum says a lot of stuff ... The SEC values football championships ... Only FSU and Clemson have won or even chased Football championships in the ACC in the past 30 years ... UNC will get a offer from the SEC only after FSU turns the SEC down and Clemson needs a partner

SEC is NOT EXPANDING. None of the ACC teams move the needle enough to add them. BigTen loves adding Big Cities. Big12 will gobble up all the ACC teams
So true. Adding more southern schools to the SEC only delutes their product. Consider that Georgia just beat Clemson 34-3 and FSU started the season 0-3 it is delusional for the ACC to imagine these schools bring value to the SEC. The ACC is trash and will probably dissolve but ironically FSU and Clemson may among the schools that are stuck in the league.
lets just agree that this is all incredibly dumb
A ridiculous anlaysis
Georgia Tech is a lot like BC, big market but way too few care about GT sports for it to matter.
Yeah, I could see them dropping to the AAC
They won 1/2 a national championship in the 90's
The Big12 already rejected Cal/Stanford/WasZu/OreState. Makes more sense they bring the PAC12 back with those 4 and the best of the Mountain West.
SEC: FSU, Clemson, UNC, NC State
Big 12: Louisville, Pitt, GT, Duke, Syracuse, VT
B1G: Miami, VA, Stanford, Cal, ND*
ND would strike a similar agreement with the big 12 that they had with the ACC, otherwise they’d have to join either the SEC or B1G
florida and south caroilina would block fsu and clemson to join sec
Cal and Stanford maybe Duke go independent. This video makes me sad though. Hate that this is what it’s becoming.
I can see Cal and Stanford going independent in football and WCC in everything else.
I can see both of them disband there football teams. From what I know some of the people there are trying to find a reason to disband the teams.
I can see Cal and Stanford back in the Pac which would give them 4 schools they could add a San Diego State and maybe Gonzaga and one more which could make it a viable conference again.

NC House Bill 965: A state House bill (HB965) was filed on May 23, 2024, which would require North Carolina and North Carolina State to annually play each other in football, and at least once a season in men’s and women’s basketball, if they ended up separated by conference realignment.

@@kennethgolden5539 but even people in the government are not even sure if it will pass any legal challenges, as that is why they never went through with the bill many years ago requiring NC State to play ECU in football. As far as the UNC System board any school trying to move to another conference has to get approval from the system board and not get vetoed from the president of the board.
They can easily play each other annually in football and twice a year in basketball while being in separate conferences. Same for all their Olympic sports.
@@kennethgolden5539 How would a retroactive hip attachment work logistically?
This is a fairly uneducated video. You're putting teams into the SEC in the Big 10 that are clearly Big 12 schools. Outside of Clemson and Florida State, and UNC, the ACC upper echelon is very similar to the Big 12. Bottom of the ACC is not valuable to the Big 12, and would be a net negative. You overvalued the top of the ACC and undervalued the Big 12 conference as a whole.
As long as you are playing what if . How about a conference that has major media markets , historic rivals , strong fan bases, short travel distances, Competitive
Games, The new Big East Football only Conference
Boston College, Syracuse, Pitt, Temple, Army, Navy, Rutgers, UMass, UConn,
Delaware , James Madison
Maryland, W Virginia .
A regional conference with strong media, fan base that makes sense . That people in the northeast would be interested in no offense to other conferences but if your not from those areas you dont care . It works both ways
Thats what these schools should do if the acc breaks up
Why would the B1G want a small private school located in the southern most state of the Continental United States at the end of a 400 mile long peninsula who doesn’t even have an on campus stadium. Add to that the football team has only been barely decent for the last 20 years, the stadium is usually half empty on game day, and the average day time temperature is close to 90 degrees in September and October. And on top of those concerns, the TV ratings have been poor for many years which makes me question just how much Fox is really interested in the Hurricanes. Miami will be lucky to get an invite to the Big 12 and if that doesn’t happen, they could end up in Conference USA playing FIU and Jacksonville State. The flight time from Miami to Seattle is longer than the flight time from Boston to Dublin Ireland across the Atlantic Ocean. Just saying.
These options are just dumb....don't know how you suggest such bad options
Came across your videos by accident. Your videos are awesome. I now follow you on X. Really like your political videos as well! So my question is does the ACC survive? Looks like UCONN is about to join the Big 12. I know there was bad blood between ACC teams and UCONN from 20 some years ago. But that’s all water under the bridge. Three or four ACC teams are on UCONN’s football schedule every year. But for some reason they still don’t want UCONN in the conference. Phillips is not a proactive guy. He will regret not adding UCONN if/when there is a mass exodus.
I’m a RFK jr guy. Your coverage of him moving to the Trump camp was excellent! He made the correct decision. I will be voting Trump / Vance / Kennedy in November!
Cal & Stanford, in order to keep them as far as geographically away from their campuses, will be joining the CFL
Everyone keeps talking about "UNC" rising football program. That's true, as I've been reminded for the last 30 years, they are on the rise. When are they going to get there?
NC State is a far better fit for the SEC. If it's football dollars you are talking? NC state is the best NC team. They travel better. They have better TV ratings. They have a way better fan base.
UNC is also a better academic fit for the B!G. No way Duke goes to the SEC as this is about football Revenue. Duke would be better going the way of Gonzaga or Seton Hall. Focus on Basketball and don't worry about football.
B1G - Miami, North Carolina, Virginia, Notre Dame, Stanford, California
SEC - NC State, Virginia Tech, Florida State, Clemson
XII - Louisville, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Georgia Tech, Duke, Wake Forest, SMU, Boston College
No power conference is going above 20 members:
B1G grabs UVA and then waits for ND.
SEC grabs FSU, Clemson, UNC and one more ACC school.
Big 12 grabs Louisville, Pitt, Miami, and one more ACC school.
Three power conferences with 20 members each.
Game. Set. Match.
As an LSU fan, I wouldn't mind having FSU and Clemson in the SEC. I would also go get North Carolina and Virginia for basketball .
Your big 12 is not real.
Cal and Stanford back home to the PAC. Come back home to the West Coast Cal and Stanford. The PAC misses you. And bring our beloved Utah with you while we’re at it.
Academically, Cal & Stanford are attractive, & they would give the west coast B1G teams other teams, but Cal literally brings almost nothing to the table. You can add Stanford but only with the caveat that ND comes along. Cal & Stanford would probably go to the G5 Pac 12 with Oregon State/Washington St. These moves are about football now & Cal & Stanford just don't bring much to the table.
unccheat rising football program?! Their program is a joke and you lose all credibility saying that
FSU will join the Big Ten Conference (B1G) as soon as their exit from the ACC is finalized. (Provided something shocking at the last minute.)
20 sounds like the cap during this current set of media contracts.
So, two more Big Ten schools and four more SEC schools before 2030/4.
Miami,ND, also big east. ND,Miami, Duke,Uconn,Army,Syracuse, California and Stanford will from a football alliance of independents that negotiate their own football deals
Miami and nd will not go to big east u forget that just a basketball conference now
Only ND has enough might to be able to get its own TV deal. Rest are not really watchable, especially Cal and Stanford. They might go back to a rebuilt Pac 10

why in hell would the big 12 want SMU?? Quit your big 10 bias.
Idk, maybe it would make sense to have a Texas school in the same conference with other Texas schools. Makes too much sense tho

Probably because they wanted Cincinnati, Central Florida, BYU, and Houston.

Depend on what do you mean by imploded, ACC could simply to add new teams from AAC or Big 12. SEC already denied FSU and Clemson ,but they did want Virginia Tech and North Carolina State. Tbh, ACC need new commissioner while UNC, Duke, and Virginia need to join Big 10 because they're cancer to ACC like they screamed want to be elite academic while ignored best interests to make ACC one of top conferences. They're easy replaced by West Virginia, Connecticut, and Cincinnati then ACC can focus on natural rivalry and good overall athletic program teams. Maryland and Rutgers might be difficult to lure despite they have natural rivalries in ACC.
a) One always first targets the state flagships.
b) T-Road hasn't run he ACC for decades. All of the failed expansions with old BIGEAST schools were pushed by the football schools over some degree of T-Road objection.

FSU going to Big Ten with Stanford and ND. Big Ten going for 24 or 26 teams, GT, UNC to Big Ten as well.
You must be getting your information from Genetics 56 and Tony Altimore. What incredibly bad takes.
UNC-Duke will play each other in Basketball as long as the games are still played in college. Only question will be if it is one or two games per year. They are 8 miles a part. Don't know why you keep asking this question. FSU plays UF, SC plays Clemson, GT plays Ga, Louisville plays Kentucky, Va plays VT and that is just to name a few. All are in different conferences. Big 12 has talked about a Basketball Super Conference. A lot of the ACC would think that is appealing. UNC not so much.
I will say if fsu goes to the sec it’ll make that florida vs fsu game even bigger every year. Cuz lately it hasnt meant much. Seems like every time one team is good the other one is so so or bad. But this would make it to where if one team loses it could screw them ten times more now
Virginia and Virginia Tech are in different conferences? Do they know?
All Coasts Conference (ACC) forms east & west divisions by adding Oregon St, Washington St, San Diego St., Colorado St., Tulane and/or Rice. Stanford, Cal+ SMU to the west division. Also, possible addition of UCLA if revenue sharing adjusted among Power4. Also, if revenue sharing adjusted among Power 4 then Nebraska to Big XII (XX).
Another great take. FSU/Clemson identify well in the SEC. One point to consider: The SEC is really sensitive & careful about targeting teams/states/fan bases that identify with the South. So, culture is important to them. Sure, money is a priority, but they can get money teams w/o compromising the culture aspect. It is why so many want Vandy to be booted from the SEC.
Louisville and SMU to big 1a2 probably will happen
With all the views you are now getting, you are going to have to change your handle to "Manic Ginger." Congratulations on your rise to big time numbers.
The only thing I know about this issue is that the SEC wants North Carolina down the road because there are four top 50 media markets in the state, and the prior commissioner to Greg Sankey talked about Virginia many years ago, because of two large media markets there with DC and the Tidewater (Norfolk/Portsmouth/Newport News) area. And, the Richmond market has grown quite a bit.
Commissioner Sankey talked about this at the meetings in Nashville last year, saying that the SEC wants to stay at 16 in the near future but would revisit this issue if it was forced to be done sooner than they would like. He has talked about not cannibalizing markets, so Clemson and Florida State figure to not be on the SEC's radar (and there are probably enough school presidents to blackball both schools. North Carolina and Virginia would be the most likely 17 and 18 for the SEC.
Kentucky will NEVER allow louisville into the SEC. B1G just wont accept louisville. My guess is big12. Lol as a louisville fan and grad, im used to us having to find conferences
The SEC has been telling FSU for 70 years we will let you join our conference. They are not going to the SEC. Florida has not wanted FSU in the SEC for more than 50 years. The other SEC schools do not want FSU.
Notre Dame is the big piece in the puzzle, once they decide what makes sense to them, the realignment game will start to settle down. They value their independence and so far it has been working for them. If they joined the Big Ten that could make the Big Ten Conference even richer (or where ever they decide).
The SEC would much rather have Va Tech than Louisville. They already have Kentucky and would love to get into Virginia.
SEC is where Virginia Tech would want to go. The 'Bigs' are not that compelling.
Clemson and FSU reportedly are favorites to join the B1G. The SEC doesn't seem to want to add more teams from Florida and South Carolina is the rumor. They were fine with it when it came to a brand like Texas while already having A&M.
Stanford and Cal to the B1G make no sense at this point. They could've already taken both schools at a very reduced rate but opted not to. Why would they do that now. Cal especially is just a deadweight program. That team likely would end up in the MWC or re-imagined PAC which is MWC 2.0. Stanford could get into the B1G if ND joins the B1G and wants it. Again, the bay area is big, but nobody cares about Stanford athletics. If the B1G are trying to add teams in the west then Utah makes sense. Louisville seems destined to the B12. UNC and Virginia, to the SEC is also a rumor floating out there.
Virginia Tech not getting into at least the big 12 is laughable. They have a better football program. They will compete for a playoff spot this coming year. And an SEC style fan base.
This is all wild speculation, filled with contradictions, ifs, maybes, unlikelys and fantasies. For many, this is a fun exercise, but in reality it is a total waste of time.

It's probably too late to change conferences this season so they'll probably stuck with the 2 team Pac 12 for this season unless they're be willing to be independent until they find a new conference.
They will play Some Mountain West teams, like Notre Dame does with the ACC.
The four schools that the SEC should go get are FSU and Clemson for football, North Carolina, and Virginia for basketball. That gets them to 20 teams.
What’s gonna happen is there is gonna be a overall NCAA college football league similar to Soccer in the UK where the top 20 teams play a season against each other and the two worst of the top 20 get relegated to a lower league et cetera et cetera. Otherwise there is no rhyme or reason conferences today.
Well legally NC State
Is bound to UNC by state law, so it's both or neither you can't pick one off unless the state legislature decides otherwise.
Also VA has a similar law with UVA and VTech
Neither these states or these schools are in any position to make any demands. When ESPN cancels the ACC media right contract, it will be every school for itself. I can see the AAC willing to take all 4 schools, but not the B1G or the SEC or even the Big 12.
Will the ACC get a translucent roof, a major renovation, or will it get demolished?
Miami has ZERO loyalty to the ACC, they only joined to be with Florida State in the first place. I know Florida may be adverse to Miami joining (Florida being afraid of the Canes is a running joke in Coral Gables). I think the SEC as a whole would likely be enamored with a monopoly of Florida's "Big 3" in terms of recruiting high school hotbed Florida. On a similar note, adding Cal and Stanford would give the Big Ten a stronghold on California recruiting
One could argue that MIAMI is the primary reason for the ACC's current situation. It's clinging to ND's coattails and keeping quiet.
William C. Friday ran the UNC system for 30 years. He would rollover in his grave if UNC or NCSU went to the SEC. Now the Legislature is trying to attach these two schools at the hip. The Legislature has gotten involved in these University sports before. They forced the 4 ACC schools in N.C. to play ECU, App State and others in a regular cycle. It is a lose lose for the ACC schools. Hurts in recruiting if you lose. Does not help in recruiting at all. These other schools circle a target around these games.
did you hear that usc and ucla went to the big 10?
That bill that you mention has not even been passed and signed into law as of yet. The legislature has used the threat of passing laws before, but has never gone threw with it in the end and even if the law is passed it does not mean it will survive legal challenges.

I’ve been enjoying your other vids but it’s good to see another college football video.
This is almost always about TV Markets. For the SEC it would make sense to take a North Carolina school and a Virginia school. Because the SEC places football first, the Virginia school would be Virginia Tech. The North Carolina school would most likely be NC State. It's not that Clemson and FSU are not valuable programs, they just don't add TV markets. The SEC already has the SC markets with USC and the Florida markets with UF.
One always first targets the state flagships.

I don't think any of these conferences get to 20 except the Big 10. Espn has serious money issues, so they aren't paying for all these schools. The Big 12 aren't taking the schools you chose. SEC would take FSU & Clemson, that's it.
