You know what? It's not like Maryland's a better football school than any of those options.

I agree...none of those...my preferences would be in no particulare order...
Penn State
Vanderbilt
West Virginia
Navy
But, we need to get ND in the fold for football.

UConn was nothing in basketball before Jim Calhoun
Nov 19, 2012, 2:21 PM
|

and there's a great chance they'll return to mediocracy now that he's gone. I just don't see UConn as being any kind of decent choice. To boot, they'd likely come in the Atlantic, giving us one more meaningless football game on our schedule.

Nov 19, 2012, 2:28 PM

obvious that it's not going to strengthen the conference. Clemson and FSU need band together and present a dual package to another conference that is serious about football.

Re: I wish ACC would grow a pair and go after someone from SEC***

My top choice in order would be:
WVU
Penn St.
USF
UCF
UL
I would not even consider Uconn or Cincy, they simply are not a option.

UofL best option by far...
Nov 19, 2012, 2:34 PM

and I would support them fully.
There have a very committed athletic department, are serious about football, one of the top all time basketball programs and a very good baseball program (in CWS a few yrs ago).
They would fit in nicely and would most importantly be a good football counterpart.

but thought S FLA was the best choice.
If we go UCONN, we might as well make our bid to
the BIg 12 conference....which quite frankly, would
be fine w/ me.

You need to do some checking on your post:
UConn class of 2016 average SAT score = 1225
Clemson class of 2016 Ave Sat score = 1245

Honestly, get ND to join as a full member or do nothing. Eliminate divisions and let the 2 top teams play in the ACCCG. Besides, for all sports other than football the ACC has 14 teams. The ACC doesn't necessarily need another football member.

I think Georgetown is a good fit geographically and academically as well, although neither school brings an extremely strong football program to the table. (at the moment)
Both bring elite basketball programs though...

and either would potentially bring strong academic institutions to the ACC, as well as expand the geographic footprint.
