Then ACC need to realign Divisions like such
Atlantic - Coastal
FSU - Miami Clemson - GT NC State - UNC Wake - Duke VT - UVA Pitt - WV Louisville- ND Syracuse - Boston College

If there was ever an ACC realignment, I would like to see FSU in the coastal bc, I do believe they will come back, and it would make for a better ACCCG, IMO....

Why are so many people on the ND- wagon? They have the past and they have been close a few times in the present- I felt they were obnoxious during the pandemic year- why in heavens name do you want to deal with it year in and year out? You want to play them play them every year- and each time- you can say- it is what you could have had!! When your rival pulls down your SOS- it is time to keep them to the curb- so it you look for two find somebody to replace the limp chicks.

ND has a HUGE national TV audience and can command tv dollars. Since they are already a member of the ACC for everything but football, their addition makes sense. Swofford had them by the throat last season and did not finish the deal.

WVU doesn't have the academic standards. You thought Nancy state and Miami fans were trashy? You ain't seen nothin until you've been to a WVU home game. (daughter was there 2 years, went to half dozen games). My daughter's take on WVU fans: "they're trashy like coots, but way nicer!"
I don't think they belong in the ACC (but we did take lewisville....)

I was at the 1996 Miami vs WVU visiting a buddy and it was by far the most out of control college football atmosphere I have ever been at. Made the cocktail party tailgating look like the BYU spring game.
That was the game where the fans threw a garbage can out of the stadium and nearly killed a coach, the fans tried tipping over an ambulance. The tailgates were a complete mud pit. Absolutely brutal girl fight at a bar after the game where a girl lost several teeth (insert WV joke).
I’d rather have Maryland back and ND. Heck, maybe even UCF or Cincy. WVU doesn’t quite fit.

Truthfully, I can't see a scenario where Texas has success in a league that they can't control. As for the ACC, Notre Dame is the best bet.

Why if? The ACC is always last to do anything. They need to be first to make a move be aggressive for once! Take UCF and Notre Dame. WVU probably wouldn't meet the minimum teeth or academic standards for the ACC

You think throwing water bottles at players is bad, wvu students have a tradition of throwing batteries at players and beer bottles at each other. No thanks.

ACC better move quickly. Ask the twerps to come back (they would), Penn State, ND, and (ugh) WVU.
