NEED TO MAKE THIS CLEAR ABOUT BIG XII CONTACTING US

It is illegal for them to do so. For us to join the BIG XII we need to apply, not sit back and wait for an invite, it will never come.

Correct, we have to market ourselves at a wanted team. There is plenty of competition, especially with GT and miami going to try and get in as well.

Miami will not get the votes. I know for a fact that 5 schools will vote against them.
That school is toxic.

I don't disagree with you whatsoever, but they do bring a national appeal and large market.
On the same topic, is GT still on probation?

accepted. I believe we have to withdraw from the ACC to apply (somebody correct me if I am wrong). So, if that is true, you have to know you will be accepted to apply.

Initial formal contact has to be initiated by the school though, so we have to crap the ACC bed first (which I don't have a problem with)

They have no physical proof my friend. And to be my quite frank the BIG 12 has already talked with Clemson and FSU about joining the BIG 12.
Give it two week and we will know more. There has been a committee set in place for the past year about joining another conference; that conference being the BIG 12.

The Big 12 hasn't talked with Clemson. They've talked with someone who talked with Clemson. Most likely the guy at West Virginia is helping Clemson and FSU talk with the Big 12 indirectly because they tried to help WVU get into the ACC.

Didn't the ACC ASK Pitt and Syracuse to join? The ACC raided the Big East twice...

Don't you imagine that Clemson took notice of that?

Give the BOT, President, AD, etc... a little credit. I'm pretty sure they have a handle on the rules.
Also, why are you hollering?
