Has it really come to this ?

And it only took 335 pages ...

We should get back to important business, like do you get a chicken tender or Italian sub from Publix?

more importantly, how do you get one in virginia???

Ask her nicely?

Nearest publix to Virginia is in Charlotte NC

Wouldn't the one outside Raleigh, in Cary, be closer ...?
According to publix wiki page there are only 2 stores in North Carolina. One in Asheville and the other in Charlotte. If there is one near Raleigh it probably would be closer

I'm not aware of a Publix in Raleigh...if there's one there it's a game changer for me. I'll make the drive today and be couchgating with Publix subs by 4:00!

Publix pulled out from USF. They just dont care right now.  They are off the USF bandwagon. They will be back if we ever start winning.

It's all about the money.

 

Here's what I'm looking at:

 

The ACC needs to plummet in the new system. If FSU stumbles, they are out of the money picture.

 

The Big 12 minus 2, they need to miss out, too.

 

If these two leagues see a big change in their revenue because of the new system, something will happen this summer.

 

If somehow FSU can get away from the ACC, the Big 12 would take them in a heartbeat. As I recall, FSU was losing money by just going to a bowl, and not the national championship. We need these two leagues to do some shaking and baking this coming summer.

 

Last year, the Big 12 earned quite a bit. If they are out of the new system, that's going to hurt them. They will want more legitimacy -and have a playoff.

 

And we need to stop looking so ugly in football, if we want to get invited to the next dance (expansion)...

 

A lot of ifs. But I have hope!

I'm not so sure about that; in many cultures, pulling out is a sign of respect to the other participant

What your missing is FSU and all the teams in the ACC signed a Grant of Rights deal. Meaning if FSU is leaving it won't be for at least 10 years.   Reason being all their TV money would go to the ACC for 10 years if they tried to leave.  No school is doing that.

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
