East Carolina? Seriously?

I hear the talking heads on WCCP talk like East Carolina would be a great addition to the ACC?
Oh yes. That will definitely scare the SEC. 🙄

In one aspect only.

In only one aspect. Travel. Not a new state. Not a national brand. Not a huge crowd. Not a power in any way. Just another Wake Forest.

at least Wake is strong in several "smaller" sports

like golf, tennis, soccer etc. East Carolina isn't good at anything except baseball. And even then they have never made Omaha.

they're not strong enough academically or athletically to be in the ACC. Plus, we don't need another school from the state of North Carolina.

Probably, after laughing at WVa in the past, they don't want WVa to return the gesture.

Sounds like they are trying to revive the old Southern Conference. Shoot, let's just bring in Furman, Wofford, Elon and be done with it. Good grief.

In no way would I add ECU to the ACC...
But thought this was interesting.
Louisville - 41,692
UVA - 40,681
East Carolina - 39,649
Boston College - 35,706
Georgia Tech - 34,408
Wake Forest - 30,053
Duke - 24,505
Bet these schools would vote against unequal revenue sharing.

Revenue sharing also brings in basketball so I bet those schools would vote for it.

Do you seriously think any conference scares the SEC? Adding teams has absolutely nothing to do what the SEC does or thinks.

Agreed. SEC is nothing but a 1 region conference now.

There is no more needle movers. It’s sloppy seconds or nothing. Revenue is crap and don’t see it doing anything but getting divided up more to give us even less revenue. We would be better off shedding a few teams.

On my opinion, Coastal would be better than East, but if ACC is desperate enough to take either, they should just dissolve.
