[QUOTE="GTflyer0116, post: 986953, member: 4745"] I am GT fan and alumni. I think you guys are overly optimistic though thinking we will get an offer from the B1G when this conference finally crumbles. You guys hang your hats too much on our location in Atlanta. Do you think that really matters? Do you think Vanderbilt’s location in Nashville matters or Northwestern’s in Chicago? I don’t. It’s all about brand value and that we simply do not have. The only players left on the table are UNC and potentially Clemson. I live in Charlotte. Both have a large presence here but it has nothing to do with location it’s only about alumni size and ability to donate money to a program. Neither of which we have a lot of currently. I love GT and I will watch the team and pull for them tonight and as long as I live. The reality is though the ACC as currently setup is the best home for GT. If it crumbles, I don’t see us getting an invite to either the B1G or SEC. Even if we did, we would not be competitive in either of those conferences full stop. At that point, realistically, merging the remnants of the ACC with the B12 is probably where we are heading… I really don’t see it otherwise but again I could be wrong. [/QUOTE]
