He says sec is making a strategic move to 16 teams by backdooring the acc. Says that slive and big 12 made the conference championship pack in order to force fsu and clemson to jump from acc ship to big 12. This move significantly weakens the acc in football and this would allow Sec to break up the Virginia tech / Virginia partnership and force nc state and vt to lookout for themselves and ask for membership in football rich sec. The sec ultimate goal is to add 2 east teams in new markets and allow the divisions to be split geographically correctly. In current state of acc nc state and vt will never act / move away from virginia and nc schools but if fsu and Clemson move they basically have no choice to move or stay and wilt on the vine in a basketball conference which both are irrelevant. Just a theory but it does make sense.

Virigina Tech adds a lot. They are already a well respected "program" and will recruit much better once in the SEC. NC State will be a lot like us, it's going to take them a few years but they can become a good program. Plus it's tv markets.

VT would be a nice piece.
NC State might still be tied at the hip to UNC. To be honest if FSU, Clemson, and VT bolt the ACC, UNC would be wise to beg the SEC for entrance. They would have to check their ego, something that would never happen, but they bring a lot of viewers and cache nationally.
Obviously I hope no NC/VT schools get in because we are developing a strong recruiting ground in NC by virtue of being the closest SEC school.

I heard the SEC wants Virginia a lot worse than it wants Va Tech, because of academics. I heard if they take anyone from the acc, it would be Wake, Virginia, NC st, and academic powerhouse.
I still don't know why it matters to a sports conference so much how academically powerful a school is. I get that academics is what college is all about, but conferences are for sports.
