And now we have BC over UNC with UVA to B1G. If UVA is out then VT is guaranteed to SEC.

You are simply incorrect. He called Big 10 expansion back in October, but got the programs wrong. It is wrong to say its total ********; the guy clearly has some insider knowledge.

EDIT: Oct 13: Says Big ten interested in RU, UMD

More:

9/12: This is the final nail. Meet the new ACC, same as the old Big East. (happening now)

8/24: Certain ACC schools are urging for more time to try and woo the Irish (happened a month or so later)

9/14: High ranking University of Maryland official: "Notre Dame deal was shoved down our throats. We're mad as hell." (leaves months later)

Dude he was not the first one are you kidding me???? He is throwing every piece of garbage he hears from other news sources, people on message boards, people on the radio as insider info. You are constipated in the head if you somehow think this guy has it all figured out. He is regurgitating garbage, when you throw and entire dump truck of crap on the wall, one of those little nuggets will stick.

I do see your point and agree it's easy to just spout rumors and hope one is true. I see his timeline and while I'm not taking every twitter rumor as biblical truth, his timeline is enough evidence to convince me personally that he has some either uncanny luck, or insider knowledge.

Eric Crawford â€@ericcrawford

#UofL president James Ramsey on the ACC: "It would be a great conference for us, if we ever got that opportunity."

[hm101]

Assuming 4 ACC teams get picked off (regardless of who, but lets say for example FSU, CU, UVA, UNC), the ACC may look this way:

NCSU, Wake, BC, GT, Mia, VT, Duke, UConn, Syr, Pitt, Cincy, USF

That's 12. Room for UL if they don't end up in B12, and one more, possibly

Time for ACC to rebrand itself as research engine of the atlantic coast, with solid olympic sports, and competitive but not excellent football (leave that to SEC)

also, that wvu guy who claims to be right. he's not the only one flinging poo to see what sticks.

i've been doing it for 2 years now, writing down all teams on paper and shuffling them around to see who fits. i could've posted all of my scenarios too and i'd be "an insider". that guy is just posting everything and then cherrypicking stuff to say 'look at me, i was right all along'...in the end, no one gives a hoot if you're the one to break the story or call it correctly. unless you end up with a job at espn or some other big newspaper/online, you get nothing but "internet props". whoopdefuckingdoo
