For now I have been briefly told enough info (same source who gave me UMD/ACC settlement before public) that I think most will be interested

Ok...this is difficult on a Friday night. But for those who are interested in what I say on Conf Exp...check my timeline later tonight.
I wonder how Owen Field is looking these days.

I know you have been preaching Kansas and Oklahoma to the B1G, but would you be too disappointed with Kansas and VT?

That would be interesting...
The ACC takes UConn. The Big XII takes Cincinnati (and maybe Memphis and BYU as well).
American takes their pick of most of the C-USA/MAC/Sun Belt (I say most because some of the MAC will likely not be interested).
When are people going to learn that the ACC's not going to lose anyone else? That those schools generally just want to be together, unlike in the BigXII where everone's been trying to find an exit and are sticking together out of temporary convenience.

Nah, I highly doubt something will happen to The Big Ten that would disappoint me. Which do I prefer? Well Oklahoma with the idea that they end up in the same division with Iowa, yeah...personal bias.
Do I think Virginia Tech is equivalent to Oklahoma? I think they like Virginia more than they do Oklahoma and I think they like Oklahoma more than they do Virginia Tech. I only added Virginia for a comparison that works. That being said, I think Oklahoma lands closer to Virginia Tech than to Virginia.
It's Baylor. Ken Starr has found a loophole in the Big 12 GOR.
To play along, I'd guess its OU or FSU, i.e. wrong about the perception comment. Big 10 must think GOR don't bite.

How much of a histrionic is this guy? For all of his build up one would think it was Notre Dame and Oklahoma. Terry D. to appear in 3...2...1....
My question seriously however is if Virginia Tech why Kansas? Why not Virginia Tech, Syracuse, Kansas, and Oklahoma. If you are going to crack the ACC why screw around with just Virginia Tech. I agree that Duke, North Carolina and Virginia if they go anywhere will just be a package. In fact because they would be a package then if you are the Big 10 why not go for the Grand Slam? Now that would need a drink or two and if wrong would ruin the guy whose twitter gets a hits: Duke, North Carolina, Virginia and Notre Dame. I could possibly see the Irish consider the Big 10 with that company. Heck just throw in Pitt and Syracuse and move to 20. The SEC cleans it up to the South: Virginia Tech, N.C. State, Clemson, Florida State, Georgia Tech, and possibly Louisville.
Then all we need for a 3 x 20 is for the PAC to take 8 of the Big 12.
But, seriously, there are other possible scenarios to 15 or 16 that would be much more likely but probably not worth the ridiculous build up.
I can't see UVA letting V tech join the big 10 unless they were also joining the big 10. No way UVA sticks around the ACC if V tech joins the big 10.

UVa only let VT in the ACC because of political extortion in the state legislature. I'm not sure they would care much if VT now wanted to leave it.
B1G will add West Virginia in 2017. The B12 is allowing it so they can make room for BYU.
I've said it makes sense due to rivalries and geography before. WVU's endowment is currently the same size of Maryland's and Rutgers.

That would be a nightmare for the ACC.

And the SEC in a corner due to GORs has to settle for East Carolina.

Why would Coach Hurley leave if that was in the mix?
