I don’t know about you, but I’m shocked by the ACC

Never in a million years would I have thought this basketball loving conference would have held out even this long under these circumstances in trying to make a football season happen. It still may not happen of course, but I think this is a good sign for the conference - actual commitment to football.
I wonder what has caused this change. My guess is Clemson and FSU have some sort of blackmail leverage lol.

true I have been wondering though if no football why should there be basketball? Maybe that is what got Commish Bozo's attention

This is a key point. No college football equals no college basketball and that would ruin the ACC.

Money. The Basketball conference needs the football money.

Agree, with the likes of Duke, UNC, WFU, UVA and CUSE

I'm surprised they haven't asked that the likes of Clemson, FSU, NCST, VT, UL and BC be removed from the ACC for cultural reason.

BC is well beyond Cuse academically. Clemson is beyond Cuse. And GaT is way beyond in technical education and salaries earned.

Clemson shares a lot of money with a conference full of academia and football bums ...

about not seeing how we could move forward without 3 power conferences. It shouldn’t matter what any other conf does period. I’m actually thankful that Swofford is the commissioner- he was a football player, he’s going to want to move forward. I imagine he’s been a help in convincing some presidents- none of the coaches should need convincing.
