[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 881335, member: 1199"] Continuing my thought thread. Which ACC schools would the B1G want? The B1G wants every member school to also be AAU members. From the AAU website, here are the ACC schools who are currently members: Georgia Institute of Technology The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University of Pittsburgh University of Virginia Duke University Duke, UNC, and Pitt will not bring TV revenue of any significance to the conference. Neither will UVA because Maryland already brought the Washington and Baltimore markets. Northern Virginia gets all their TV out of Washington. That leaves only GT. I agree with other posters that in retrospect we should have jumped to the Big Ten when we had the chance. If there are going to be two 20-team mega conferences as being predicted today, the B1G needs to add six schools. They got two with USC and UCLA. I think we should be watching GT, Oregon, Washington, and Arizona. Look for Clemson, UNC, FSU and Miami to join the SEC. What will happen to Duke, Wake, and the other ACC schools? The wild card in all this is Notre Dame. They trump every other potential B1G member school. [/QUOTE]
