UConn does seem kind of a natural fit with the ACC, geographically and athletically .... which of course means it will probably never happen.

Also, BC doesn't really have the clout to block them anymore.

WVU is the more logical choice. If the ACC invited the 'eers, they'd leave the B12 so fast your head would spin.

Geographically speaking I agree with you.  I think it would come down to UCONN and WVU.  I would give the edge to UCONN for academics, basketball and location.  Not to mentioned the ACC thinks they are better than WVU.

Navy could be considered (football only) as they have history with ND. And let's face it ND will be making the call on who #16 would be.

That's a good point.  I think I read that Navy turned them down but it might been just speculation on this thread.  In which case it may be cannon.

HIGHLY suspect that ND would give up independence... don't buy it.

They've been creeping that way with other sports and it depends on how bad they really want another fb national championship. They may see that lLeaving two P5 conf champions out of the playoffs is going to be extremely tough when you've got humans making the decisions.

Baylor in hot water again for the same crap. Could this be USF and companies chance to grab a seat at the big boys table? It's sad that this occurred. I'm just curious if it's enough for the Big 12 to finally remove Baylor.

Since it was on the watch of those that are no longer there, it may not.
