No,why should FSU and Miami consider USF or UCF as a peer - it would only hurt them.
Cincy is UofL without the fanbase.
ND ok but meh already almost a part of them.
Baylor and TCU - why? Might as well bring in more of the B12 and let them play in their western sandbox.

Maybe TCU or Baylor bring something to the table, but the cog in the wheel is Notre Dame. In fact some one told me today they would probably join the Big10 before the ACC.

i guess a lot of you just can not read. notre dame has a contract with the acc that they must join if they decide to take the plunge. and the acc is not going to fall apart so you tin hatters can believe whatever you wish.

It’s not about just adding teams. It’s about adding teams that will move the TV ratings needle. Honestly don’t see any of those out side of ND and Penn State.

Yea as a football first fan, and a likely unrealistic scenario I’d prefer to cut Wake, Syracuse, and BC. Add ND, PSU, and WVU.

My fallback teams assuming no ND, TAM, PSU, etc, with no other than B12 to take, would be OkSt, TexTech, TCU, Iowa St and Baylor.

This what you want ...
WVU Navy
ND spins off in the ether ...
And this is the most likely
Contrary to urban myth, Navy has a YUGE following ...and you get the DC/Baltimore market ... a surrogate Maryland
WVU has always been worthy and has a YUGE following ... great Sports

No. Lets hope we've already been back channeling to get out of this conference. It's behind as it is, and will only get worse. Adding crap from the AAU and Big 12 doesn't improve the conference.

Two major things the ACC can do in response to the SEC expansion.
1. Strongly resist any expansion of the CFP. Convince other conferences to vote with us in opposing any expansion. That would put the SEC in a box by making it MUCH HARDER for any school to make the playoffs not named Alabama. Do not expand to 12 as that will only further enrich the SEC since they would place 5-6 teams in the playoffs.
2. Form an alliance with another conference. The ACC should join forces with the BIG or PAC 12 and agree to a 5 year deal, where member schools would agree to play each other in two games each season. This would present the networks/cable providers/conference networks with great cross regional games, creating product for the platforms for both conferences. Fans would enjoy great away games as well.
What the ACC does not need to do is panic and add two additional bodies (WVA, Cinn, etc.) just to get to 16 teams. Any team the ACC would bring in would have to bring in $50M in additional revenue just to increase each school's take by 1M. I don't see any team, outside ND, having that type of value.

WVU is obvious but Appl State ... that school is pretty cool. Good Football, Boone is a neat town, right down the road from Blowing Rock ... no people ? I beg to differ ... I was there last Summer and Fall and LOTS of limousine liberals ... its now quite the "in thing" now you know

I'd be okay with Cincinnati if poaching the Big 10 or SEC isn't an option.
I don't see how UCF or USF really help the conference. No to those.
