[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 882860, member: 4334"] Teams will have somewhere to land just like OU, Texas, USC, and UCLA did. The problem many of you have is that you believe if it’s not in the media it isn’t happening. All 4 of those schools worked a deal under cover and everyone was suprised. How many times do you need to be surprised before you realize a lot is happening behind the scenes. Everything you posted is pure speculation. Just because the BIG isn’t handing out invitations at your pace doesn’t mean they won’t. How in the world do you know Oregon won’t get an invite? And ESPN may not even exist in its current form in a decade from now. One rich entity could buy ESPN next week and rework the entire business model. What if FOX buys ESPN and controls both super conferences? Or what if Disney bought FOX? The point is no one knows but the recent past tells us college football is not staying the same so to think that the ACC will be untouched until 2036 is not reality. And that is exactly what some of you have said because of the GOR. I think the GOR will be a non factor within 5 years because something or someone will offer more money to have schools in the ACC decide the current GOR is not in their best interest. It’s a dying conference, not because of today but because of the terrible leadership Swofford provided for decades which put us in this weak position. [/QUOTE]
