ALL must stay also. Any defectors means we must move also.
We cannot afford to stick around if VT and NCst head to SEC next year, etc.

to leave behind UNC for a better deal. Now if the shoe were on the other foot...
I don't think the SEC will repeat the ACC's market-based mistakes, either.

I personally think the SEC and ACC made a mistake adding teams. Only time will tell. I like 12 team conferences. Oh well.

If Clemson and FSU stay I don't see VT leaving.

They won't be the ones to start the defection. If the ship starts sinking then I see them leaving.

Which might be the only way to get Swofford's attention

this might all be postering by Clemson and FSU to get UNC and Swofford's strangle hold on the conference removed. No matter how much we might want to stay and make everything turn out right something has to give either in terms of teams leaving or the leadership of this conference changing for the better.

job!!!! Clemson lets FSU stomp their feet and throw a temper tantrum, quasi embarrassing themselves; meanwhile, calm coll and collect TDP works behind the scenes all ninja like. Of course this could be all part of the plan between FSU and Clemson ..... but what a masterful job!!!

Correct. VT will not start the proverbial snowball

and if no other conference teams bolt then VT will absolutely stay put....100% guaranteed. If FSU and/or Clemson bolt, then all bets are off.

All the message board chatter abt the Va. legislature stopping them is nonsense. They will jump at the chance for more money and exposure.
