Surely she doesn't believe this....

Look, the ACC isn’t worried aGreensboro to leave the ACC, and right now, no offers are on the tablebout anyone getting poached. Nobody has $20 million to give to .

They have to be paying her to just act uninformed.

"I've been working since I was 15 continually until now. I worked 40 hours a week at 15, when it wasn't even legal for 15 year olds to work that many hours."

She might well believe it

She's never impressed me as being a rocket scientist.

I agree with HD more than most of you do I think. In this case, I think she is pretty close to being right. One thing that will come from all this conference switch nonsense is a better schedule for teams who hope to contend for the title. Nothing would please me more than to see Clemson NOT have Furman or Alcorn State etc. on future schedules. I see us headed in that direction. A one loss ACC team, if the schedule is good, will not keep the team from being a contender for the championship. imo

If we could drop some of the other leaches on our schedule I'd agree. But we can't if we remain in the ACC.

We won't be considered with one loss and our RPI.

She isn't anywhere near being right. Her bias is showing about as much as all the feathers around hear lately. She wants to keep her job. If going to the Big12 meant not having to deal with her take on our conference, pack up the bags. That's worth 20 million right there. But our luck she'd get a job writing about the Big12. HD is an idiot and always had been and always will be.

IF....IF...Clemson leaves I think people looking at access


Jun 5, 2012, 11:22 AM [ in reply to Re: Debate: What happens to ACC, Big East? ]

to a playoff as a reason are completely missing the boat...the reason is more about contempt for the ACC and access to money and access in one of the top 4 conferences.

Also this article outlines why Clemson would want to leave....Swofford is merely protecting friends/relatives of his at the cost of the schools
