Conference realignment "Rumors" "tweets" "etc"

[Brad]

People said that when The Bulls Pen went from 75 members to 500.  
 

You were probably around for that.

The B12 has been the least stable conference for two decades now. They're the only conference who has had multiple teams leave in multiple realignment windows (Nebraska/Colorado, TAMU/Mizzou, OU/UT). It wouldn't surprise me if long-term that the 4C schools (or at least ASU/Utah) gravitate back to Cal/Stanford, and there's a decent chance that's the "ACC-West" come 2030. Due to the ACC having a long-term TV contract, and a single network calling the shots, if ESPN wanted to they could easily provide pro-rata for the 4C additions at the end of the current B12 contract. The B12 has a tougher time negotiating those additions, due to requiring buy-in from both ESPN and FOX (FOX reportedly did not provide the B12 with the pro-rata for the 4C for this year, but will provide it starting with the next deal in 2025). Either way, I think the conference distributions for both of them will be a big story to watch at the end of this year. There have been moving parts for both of them, including the 4C additions and the ACC "success initiative", plus whatever the buyout/settlement is when FSU and Clemson exit. Additionally, it will be really fun to watch Yormack get creative with revenue streams - the WWE/B12 partnership could be really cool. 

The B12 seems happy at the moment.  With the exception of maybe Utah they are without malcontents for the first time in a long time.  Nobody is returning to Cal/Stanford.  They might return for an intact ACC with FSU and Clemson add OSU and WSU.  But that seems to screw us. The rest of this is fantasy

Would we if we were in the ACC?

 FSU is the best at being in last place and has cemented hitself in history as the first last place team in the 19 man ACC. Their delusional fan base, coach, and AD brought this on themselves. Year 5 and FSU looks worse than year one after Taggart that is n't a good look. At least they sued the ACC while they thougt they were national contention worthy and got a reality check. Everyone loves watching them get pooped on after claiming their poop didn't smell. Clemson actually has a made a case to move up to a bigger conference this decade and you don't see their fans crying , whining, and demanding more money nearly as much as FSU fans. Norvell can't develop a quarterback and his hiring portal players to win games will not work without developing recruits into starters. Portal is used to bring in talent to fill holes or elevate not build a full roster off if you want a winning and sustainable culture. 

Has anyone found the guy that claimed he would eat poop out of a cup if BC beat FSU because they were contenders? Yes that is how delusional their fan base is. They thought they were going to beat the brakes out of BC after losing to GT and said he would eat poop from a cup live if they lost. They lost and he disspeared. 

 

 

 

 

All this may be true but it does not change the fact that FSU is a very valuable brand and will get picked up by a P2.  If they don't then we are screwed.

Hmm I wonder how valuable they are really compared to some others.  It's not the 90s.
