[QUOTE="GoJacketsInRaleigh, post: 812097, member: 5103"] The ACC isn't going to add a 15th and 16th team just for the hell of having the same number of teams as the SEC. Period. It's just further dilutes an already small pie. The SEC and B1G are already significantly higher than the ACC in yearly payouts. That has to change quickly for the ACC to remain competitive. Most of the SEC and B1G schools are very large public schools. More alumni = more fans = more eyeballs and tv ratings. The Wake Forest and Boston College types destroy the ACC. We aren't dumping them so we're kind of stuck. The only fix to more money per year is adding Notre Dame. Are they willing to do it? At what cost? What are the other possibilities? West Va -Hell no brings nothing UCF - Big school but we already have the Florida market with Miami and FSU Cincinnati - Louisville-lite and isn't going to move a single needle Houston - Definitely a new market and to hell with the academics this is about cash. Keep them on the short list if we needed to add someone Kansas, K-State, Iowa State, TCU, Baylor - All a quick no thanks Oklahoma St or Texas Tech - Big enough to consider The real prizes after Notre Dame that are realistic (LOL at Penn State suggestions) are Southern Cal, UCLA, Stanford, and Oregon. Perhaps Colorado or Washington. There needs to be a football only conference here. Could ND join if there's some sort of scheduling agreement where they get USC, Stanford, BC/Pitt, GT, and Miami most years? Those are either the schools they want to play or the markets they want to play in. This isn't about keeping up with the SEC in size; it's about keeping up with the SEC and B1G in money. [/QUOTE]
