The ACC deserves to fall apart if this is true

I stole the below statement from this link
http://www.tigernet.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=12251119
"But a package of Texas, Texas Tech, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State didn’t excite the ACC, according to sources. The ACC was concerned about preserving its East Coast identity; was concerned about Texas’ Longhorn Network causing too much disruption in revenue sharing; and would have preferred a package of Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas if it was going to take any Big 12 schools, sources said."
There is one reason I 100% believe this statement is true. LOOK at the school on this list that doesn't belong based on FOOTBALL "Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas"
hmmmmmmm...I wonder which one it is. KANSAS. It makes that statement 100% believable. Only the ACC baskeball morons would turn down getting Texas and Oklahoma into the ACC because they would rather have KANSAS. How funny it is that their own stupidity is going to be the end of them.

conference realignment crap to begin with?
Texas is selfish with their TV revenue, I have no idea why so many of y'all want to associate with them.

I would rather associate with Texas who cares about football

than UNC and Dook who only care about basketball and running the ACC. If we are going to be pushed around it might as well be in a sport we are most committed to.

wouldn't have paid good money to get a good coach and then cheat to keep good players; however, they got caught.

The priority is BB and always will be with UNC

There is no arguing that. Look at the direction the conference is heading; BB is the reason.

Duke and UNC want to suck as much money away from schools like FSU and Clemson as possible.

grant of rights...which assures that no one is going no where.
If the conference was so weak, or they hated UT so much, why sign that?

the "football" schools are fleeing like rats on a sinking ship. Once Clemson and FSU leave to the B12 and VPI leaves to the SEC the ACC will have no other choice but merge with what remains of the Big East and form a Basketball Super conference. The days of this ACC are counting down to the end.
