FSU, UNC, Clemson, and ND to the B1G to generate double what the SEC makes. The B1G will assist FSU and Clemson to improve their academics to eventually qualify for their AAU memberships.
As a lawyer, I can say that the idea of the two commissioners getting together to carve up the ACC is ridiculous. There are so many legal reasons why this would never happen. Not the way this guy suspects/ imagines.
ESPN ruined college sports. They need to make conferences by geographical location, if they want to play against a certain school for “high ratings” then they should schedule that non-conference game.
It wasn't ESPN. It was the B1G. They have already destroyed the Pac 12 and are now working on the ACC. Remember that agreement they had with the Pac 12 as they were negotiating with USC and others to leave for the B1G. Now they are arrogantly talking about who they are "GOING TO TAKE" out of the ACC. They will help all of the non AAU members get accredited. They are a joke...People who live in the South actually do wear shoes. They are in for a rude awakening when the dust finally settles on this. They were actually the Big 2...now with the addition of USC they are now the Big 3. I hope the ACC survives even though I'm a SEC fan.
Not really. The changes are being driven by the law, court cases, the NCAA not having an antitrust exemption, and, then the viewers (ratings) on media outlets. Media deals are based upon viewership and brands. The players must get paid due to court cases. The players must have the right to transfer per same. The scope is national and only regional in the sense of where the schools that have the most viewers are. Most viewers are in the Big Ten and SEC footprint. That’s why they have the higher paid media deals. That’s why some schools want to join them, if invited. We are heading to a Power 3 with the Big 12 being the weak sister to the Big Ten and SEC due to less viewers and money. Conferences that can’t compete with viewers and therefore money will eventually have a Tier 2 level of conferences and eventually their own playoff, and some may drop big time football all together. It’s not anybody’s fault. It’s the law and the marketplace.
@@SuperWarJam Me too no way Big 12 takes Duke FB only. That's beyond hilarious. I'd rather take UConn in all sports. Mr. Florida State thinks the Big 12 is inferior. You can tell by his mouth. lol Too arrogant for me.
Yeah they aren’t a valuable football brand. Why would any school take a permanent cut to join these two conferences when the Big XII may be their best option?
GT will be in B1G before it's over. This is still all several years down the road, not a chance the courts move on this faster than snail pace. From what I see on the ACC landscape, GT has a good coach and they are getting better recruits. Look for their football stock to bristle to a level if not FSU or Clemson, then at least above the rest and will reap benefits associated with it. Coupled with location amd academics/research, I don't see them getting left out of any B1G extension south.
This guy must be an FSU fan. I don’t care about any ACC program, but if I’m the SEC or Big10, Miami is the program I want. That has become a MAJOR city in the past few years with so much money. NIL is going to make them a huge player in all sports very soon
@@WeSRT4 He's not an FSU fan. He's a shill... He didn't even boycott ESPN for all the meaningless bowl games. The beeeyotch has multiple channels just to rake in more money because he feels he can't do it now that FSU fans know he's a fake.
I'm really surprised that Stanford isn't throwing it's money around. They have as much or more money than ND. Their administration doesn't appear to value their athletic programs the way other schools do. They have been a top program in Olympic sport for many years.
Personally, I would rather see the SEC and ACC rivalries united into the SEC. Let FSU/UF, Clem/SC, Louisville/UK play as conference rivals as well as state rivals.
All of this has gone off the rails. It should be: FSU, Clemson, NCST and VT to the SEC UNC, UVA, ND and Miami to the Big Ten Pitt, Louisville, Duke and GT to the big 12. But we can’t have things make sense.
Your proposal is definitely what the big ten wants, the question is what the SEC wants or if that's good enough for them. Academics to the Big Ten, football powerhouses to the SEC. New states matter less each passing day. If you're telling me the big two conferences and networks are actually working together this seems much more likely than what's presented in the video. Yes, money money money, but only considering TV markets is also off. Louisville is not going to the big 10 for any price.
Im hearing the SEC wants UNC and UVA along with @RedMagee409 list of programs. The Big will snag ND, Miami along with Cal and Stanford. The Big and SEC will have 22 programs each. There’s also rumors of Duke and either Ok State/ GT ( Big 12 exit fee is potentially troublesome) taking temporary partial tv shares to become members of the SEC.
Thanks for the update and opinions of conference realignment for ACC schools. When it comes to Miami, I disagree with your assessment. You and everyone else in the outside world don't understand the Miami metropolitan sports fanbase. You alluded to Miami fans loving the pro sports teams, but missed the mark. What the people in the metro Miami and SF area love is a winner. They will get behind whatever team is winning. There are too many things going on around the city that fans will not waste their time and money with the blind loyalty that you see around the landscape of college football. The Canes fans are there. They are passionate. They are the ultimate consumer. You will not get their money if you don't win. You will in spades if you do win. That's the bottom line. Secondly, I disagree that Miami winds up in the SEC. Miami is an AAU school with a ton of available academic research with it's UM Healthcare. That would be a big coup for the B1G. I just don't see the B1G letting all that academic research slide. I also believe the perception and reality of teams could change after the 2024 season. It depends if FSU and Clemson get out of the conference before the 2024 season ends. I believe Miami is ascending nationally and Clemson is regressing. The 2024 tv viewership should increase dramatically for Miami. I think the tv numbers for Miami will open a lot of eyes if they have the kind of season that results in an ACC title and CFP appearance. That would change the game for Miami and give them leverage for a full share or shorter period leading to a full share in whichever conference they join. If you're paying attention, Miami is quietly making moves and positioning itself with back 2 back top 10 recruiting classes and is set for a 3rd. My understanding is the Miami NIL program is bankrolled by 4 billionaires and fans are joining the Canes Connection NIL collective they started. Miami is also building new facilities on campus. No need for an on campus stadium. Hard Rock hosts CFP games and Super Bowls. It is centrally located for all Canes fans and is one of the best stadiums in the country. The fact that Miami is not vocal against the ACC is irrelevant. It serves no purpose at this point in time and has no benefit for Miami at this time. The Miami administration will play its hand at the appropriate time that maximizes their opportunities.
A Virginia school being in the SEC is more important to them than Big 10. Many Virginia/Virginia Tech alumni live in Washington, DC market. Big 10 has Maryland and they have a lot of DC and Baltimore alumni (top 25 markets). SEC only has Dallas and Miami (through Texas and Florida). Everyone should be thinking top TV markets for these conferences.
Your comment on Duke football has done much lately , when has UNC done anything in , losing their last several bowl games , haven’t won an ACC Championship since 1981 , but Duke has won their latest 3 bowl game , won a ACC Championship in 1989 and in the history has 17 conference championship vs Unc has a total of only 7 !
While money is still a major factor you can't overlook the social and cultural factors in this type of realignment analysis. Clemson fits the SEC culture much better than Miami, while Miami's international reputation fits what the Big Ten is looking for like a glove. Plus adding both FSU and Miami is still adding a new state for Fox. For NC, if you have to split that state then shifting NC State to the SEC and Duke to Big Ten is the better way. Big Ten values elite academics and Duke would be a massive get for the BTAA. Plus (and here's where you're missing the bigger picture) Duke and Miami would be lures for Notre Dame. Yes, we're all aware of the Domers and their refusal to join a conference but Big Ten legacy programs still haven't given up. Don't ask me why. So I think the breakdown would go like this: SEC - Clemson, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Virginia Tech Big Ten - Virginia, Duke, Florida State, Miami (future) - Stanford, Cal, Notre Dame Louisville is not joining the Big Ten. Not a good fit.
I can see the Big 10 taking FSU with the understanding FSU is taking steps towards AAU membership. But, I don't know if Big 10 presidents could stomach schools like Clemson or NC State. I also think Georgia Tech is underrated in realignment. GT in the Big 10 seems realistic.
I agree. I think NC State stays in the ACC, and they get alimony and or a basketball and football scheduling agreement with UNC. FSU and Miami to the Big 10 and UNC and UVA or Kansas to the SEC.
FSU and Clemson to the b10. Unc and Virginia to the sec. ncst and vtech also to the sec with much reduced share of tv payouts. This results in both conferences reaching 20 teams. Miami, Louisville, gt, and duke to b12.
I disagree everything you said about Clemson. Clemson brings a better fan base and more revenue to the SEC than the Gamecocks will ever bring. Also Clemson brings a national audience for TV games. When is the last time you were excited to see South Carolina play a game?
NCAA has killed college athletics, period. portal stupidity, colleges = agents, mega-conference greed, 4 hour games (w/ 2.5 hours of ads),... i simply don't support/watch this sh!t anymore. local HS sports are better & more fun.
No, they did not. They robbed college sports for years until court cases were finally heard. The whole system is and has always been flawed. What the court has said is that the NCAA does not get to act like a monopoly. They would/should have had a special exception from Congress to govern football or collective bargain with student athletes. The NCAA is just another corporate entity that must follow corporate laws. The reason the NCAA allowed transfers at any time is because they had to. NIL and freedom of movement must be collectively bargained just like the NFL. The courts have said they don't have the power to regulate things that must be collectively bargained. That's what the B1G and SEC will do with it's new power conference a few years down the road.
B1G will in its FSU & UNC at full shares to get to 20. Of the B1G expands past 20 then I could see Miami, UVA and GT. They will stay at 23 and wait out ND. The SEC if they expand will bring in Clemson, NCSt, BT and Kansas all at a discount. B12 will grab Louisville, Duke, Pitt, SDSU & UConn and focus on dominating BB even more even if they lose Kansas. Wake, BC and Syracuse will work with Calford and SMU to keep the ACC as a P4 conference. They will invite WSU, OSU, USF, Tulane, Memphis, UTSA, AF, CSU, Fresno St and Boise State to make a 16 team conference.
I think that nobody outside of Notre Dame is getting more than half shares till the next deal in 2030. The B1G Presidents set a precedent last year adding Wa/Or at half shares till the next deal. Last thing they would want to do would be to create discord in the conference with unequal revenue to it's newest members. Plus it's safe to assume if that was the case, then all four west coast teams would simply vote no on expansion.
In 4 years or less, there will only be a power 2 that will join together for a mega conference with governing rules for transfers and NIL. They will no longer be governed by the NCAA.
Being a college basketball fan only is frustrating during these times. Seeing the power of college football fundamentally dictate the direction of college basketball just doesn't sit right with me, but football is King in this country 🤷
I know GT may not be a needle-moving brand, but I think they have enough going for them to be a sleeper team for the B1G. (New state with great recruiting potential, location in the heart of downtown Atlanta, AAU member)
The question is how many seats are available ? If the B1G takes 2 teams? Is GT the #1 or #2 team to take? If B1G takes more, okay. That’s the challenge with this round of realignment is that it appears most seats are taken. So many articles and insiders say that the B1G takes 2, SEC takes 2-4, and where do the other schools go? Maybe the Power 2 will take more? No one knows, not even the decision makers yet. And even the insiders are guessing.
My personal wish list for SEC additions would be Florida State; Miami; Clemson and last but not least, Georgia Tech. All four have natural rivals in the SEC and Georgia Tech was a charter member of the conference. I’m sure it will never happen, but that’s the my dream scenario
Unless they improve markedly this year, there is no value add for them to go to B1G or SEC. Both conferences already have a group of doormats and there just really is no added value for a program that can't fill their stadium regularly. There is also no reason to believe that UM will magically turn it around in a season or two.
@user-ql3fd2zd3u I think 🤔 you have had too much Kool-Aid with something inside of it ! Miami brings big value any moron would tell u that ! Duh 🙄 jamie
@@LoneWolfeServicesMiami has had 2 top five recruiting classes and is getting top tier portal additions. Miami is investing in football. Miami is beginning to start keeping Miami highschool talent in house. Take away a few boneheaded call by Mario they will be a consistent top 10-20 team soon.
@robless9765 They had top 5 teams consistently when Shannon was there and Duaz. Your recruiting class really doesn't mean much in the era of the transfer portal. So, I'm kinda one of those I have to see it to believe it. At this point, what I've seen is either the players don't match their ratings or the coaching staff is completely inept. Based on previous experience, I'd say most of the issues lie with the staff.
@@LoneWolfeServices agree except back then Miami admin didn’t care about football and the budget was like wake forrest. Not the car anymore- big budget now.. the momentum is definitely on the upswing.
I didn’t realize this guy was an FSU fan. It explains why the bashing of Miami and him always putting Miami in the Big12. Like the SEC or Big10 would allow the biggest TV market to go to the Big12. FSU has a larger fan base but no TV market for Tallahassee.
That's a good point. It's not obvious, but media market $value$ goes beyond actual fan base size. Indeed, it's really about grandpa casually leaving the channel on Fox or ABC or whatever as programming rolls into the next intriguing game (LSU Bama or whatever). B10 Network, SEC network ... now those are FANS tuning in to some obscure channel, like streaming. But that's not what's generating the numbers on the major networks. And big cities (eg Miami) help add that $value$
lol average attendance at home games is like 40k and sold out for the Clemson and fsu. Miami plays in a pro football superbowl caliber stadium- of course it looks like fans don’t show up for low level games.
@CollegeFootballAddiction Any chance you can do a video speculating replacement teams (besides SMU, Stanford, and UCLA) based on the departure of the 7 who are going out? Who would the ACC target to fill the void?
I like the VA teams assessment but one minor detail omitted. The legislature handling the conference discussions said it wasn't about keeping VT and UVA in the same conference, but ensuring each school is not left out if the other heads to brighter pasture. This was the key in VT going to the ACC after UVA tried to veto it at first. ACC was destroying the BIG East and the VA legislature stepped in to not have VT get relegated out of the P5/4. So if both have spots in the P2, it works.
I'm an NC State Alumni, and a fan since the 80's. I've also lived in Raleigh and dealt with UNC alumni my whole life. I for the life of me cannot see UNC Alumni and Board members stomaching being in the SEC. They would be so much better off with the Big 10 for a multitude of reasons. Same for NC State to the SEC. Ironic that everyone wants UNC for football over NCSU, because by all metrics except T-shirt Sales, NCSU is a better team.
Thanks! Coach Mario’s first hurdle was to eliminate the subculture & mediocrity that was crippling team development…he’s taken care of this problem, & if all goes according to plan, we looking at a Dynasty in the making. But, as always…the Canes biggest hurdle is with the NCAAF, & the big programs who no longer have first dibs in South Florida.
What would you say are the 6 most desirable acc schools are? My list would be 1. UNC 2. FSU 3. Miami 4. Clemson 5. Virginia Tech 6. Pitt That's not counting ND. Now I do think teams like Pitt fit better in the Big12 because of rivals such as WVU, but teams like Stanford offer a lot in academics and championships in non revenue sports
@@Mike-sp7zv I like your list. I’d probably rearrange it a little but the only team I would completely remove is Pitt and replace them with Louisville. Locked on Big 12 just came out with an interesting video that listed the top schools for athletic earnings. NC State was a lot higher than expected and so was Duke. It didn’t take into account donors but rather just the athletics department.
I don't know what you're talking about, but as a Miamian of 45 years, I can tell you Miami sport fans love the Canes as much as the Dolphins or any other team down here. You're very biassed, obviously!
Have you watched a Miami football game? Outside of the Florida State football game, there are no fans in the stands. It looks bad for the University of Miami, it looks bad for the ACC, and it is a bad look for attracting the interest of a new conference. That being said, the Big XII wants Miami as its premier member. A number of Old Big East rivals are likely headed there. The ACC 2.0 could survive for some time, but Miami must put some fans in the stands. 🐴🔥🏹
If Clemson ends up in the B1G, I think that will be my inflection point to quit CFB. I’ve stomached all the other changes but Clemson vs Minnesota being a conference game may be the straw that broke the camels back. What I’ve loved about CFB is regional rivalries. Sad day.
There will be no schools splitting sports between conferences. Duke will not play basketball in the SEC, the Big XII is a much stronger basketball conference.
This commentary is obviously not fresh, just still interesting after FSU and Clemson filed their most recent court cases against the ACC. If the (big IF) the current conference commissioners puts more effort behind returning to a status quo yet going to the proposed 70-team super conference the overwhelming appearance of the SEC's and B1G strength over college football--if not all of college sports. "Returning to a status quo yet going to the proposed 70-team super conference" means the status quo would be a reprieve return to allowing for regionalism akin to the traditional conferences of pre-2014 college football world while allowing college football funds to dictate that sport only. We'll see if there is less cowardice in the leadership around collegiate sports than it's been up to this point.
A MORE realistic view of how things end up… ACC: Boston College, Syracuse, SMU, Wake Forest, Duke, Georgia Tech, Stanford, Cal, Va Tech, Louisville, Pitt, NC State, UNC, Notre Dame, Virginia, UConn, Oregon State, Washington State, Boise State, South Florida and Memphis Big 10: Miami and Colorado SEC: Clemson and Kansas Big XII or AAC or Independent: Florida State & Clemson
@@roris5882 fsu and Clemson are both SEC bound. UNC and Virginia are B1G bound. Pitt Louisville and maybe VT are B12 bound. Miami will go independent until eventually landing in the SEC. This is more realistic.
So, here is the problem with your B1G teams. I read a recent article that said there are enough university presidents that will not accept any school that is not an AAU member. Remember USC is in the B1G and was against adding any Big 12 teams to the PAC 12. I'm sure the 4 new teams are part of the group to block non AAU members from joining. Also, the SEC has said they want state schools so the thought of them adding Miami is laughable.
Joker lost his mind. 4 years fs been trying to get out of the ACC. Only team convinced is Clemson. ACC just need to schedule and win games vs big 10 and sec.
Btw, I do disagree with you, @College Football Addiction. You keep saying that the SEC wouldn't be interested in FSU & Clemson because the SEC has a team in each of those states, Florida & South Carolina. I say you're wrong because of one thing you didn't take into the equation: ad rates!!
I don't understand how adding a state, or even a media market, benefits a conference. Syracuse and Pitt added NY and Penn, but neither helped the ACC at all. It's all about fan base, and only teams with large fan bases bring any value. That's why Duke and Wake are worthless even though the teams aren't that bad.
Depends on the school, and the state. But big states and their respective flagships (eg, UNC & UVA) are targets #1, 2, & 3. Like it or not, FSU is not the State Flagship, and these sites are 'over selling,' IMO
@chrisg4931 According to Pete Thamel: UNC and UVA would be top two targets for SEC. I gather they've had this conversation w ESPN. Which means ESPN values UVA over VaT. Culturally I would agree that VaT would be a better fit. But so would WVU, and apparently that don't $work$ either for SEC / ESPN
The Big XII will end up with more teams out of the ACC than the B1G. I don’t see the B1G adding more than 2 teams and the SEC 4. The Big XII will add a minimum of 4 possibly more. I don’t see Clemson in the B1G. SEC gets Clemson and the B1G FSU. Miami will most likely be the running mate with FSU. Then SEC will take Clemson/NC/NCST and one more. Big XII will have pick of the litter afterwards
What you said makes sense. I would agree with that, except Clemson filed a lawsuit for a reason. We know that conference realignment happens in pairs, so either Clemson is going to the B1G or Both FSU and Clemson wind up in the SEC. It makes more sense that FSU and Clemson go to the SEC.
@@shawnandrews329 Yeah but why would they both go to the SEC? They are battling against ESPN especially FSU and the SEC is ran by ESPN. Better chance of both going B1G.
This guy doesn’t understand what drives the Big 10. They look for big lucrative TV markets and AAU membership. That is why Rutgers and Maryland were brought in. They are both in the biggest TV market in the country. Same with USC and UCLA they are at the heart of the second biggest TV market. Washington and Oregon are both in relatively large TV markets. But in all this the Big 10 has only offered membership to AAU members. So Clemson, FSU, NC State, and Virginia Tech, and any other non-AAU schools will more than likely not be joining the Big 10. Miami, Virginia, North Carolina, Duke, Boston College, Georgia Tech., Berkley, Stanford, and the University of Southern Florida are all AAU. Miami, North Carolina, Virginia, Boston College, Stanford, and Berkley also bring in reasonably big TV market with affluent fans.
I hope you’re wrong. An I believe you’re wrong. • Neither SEC or B1G will split a school (Duke) and just take basketball. • You underestimate Clemson’s presence in NC. Charlotte is closer to Clemson than Chapel Hill. • You underestimate the number of OSU transplants in SC. B1G already has huge footprint in SC. • You think UNC is more valuable than Clemson. No, not until they get off their wallet and really start investing in sports. • Clemson is a much better fit in SEC. Clemson to B1G would be like putting a round peg in a square hole. • If B1G and ESPN really are coordinating the (questionable) it is Clemson and FSU (the two most valuable programs) that will be split.
We see along the same lines but with one key difference..... FSU & ND are the 2 major brands that must be split. Then the chips fall around them. Remember a core tenant of this whole situation is FSU not liking ND's amount of sway while not being a full member.
You so funny when was the last time you went to miami its all about the canes down their. So get your facts right dude. I live their everyone down here is a serious fan. Go canes.
I disagree about Duke. The driving force behind this is football, which Duke is weak on, making the SEC and Big 10 less interested in them. And as far as basketball is concerned, that doesn't mean that much to the SEC and the Big 10 as football or what basketball means to the Big 12. So they would best fit the Big 12, despite their whiny lying about BYU's racism.
I agree with what you said about him saying anything good about Miami. I didn’t realize he was an FSU fan. I think, though, the BIG10 would want Miami because of the TV market for them.
You said at first that this was your opinion and then you mentioned that this is what your sources have said it’s gonna happen. Also, I noticed your opinions way heavily towards the Big Ten and SEC when clearly show four of those schools going to the big 12.
I agree with pretty much everything u said but inthink Duke is a stretch. I just dont see them fitting with either of the big 2 conferences. Yes their basketball program is verrrrrryyyyy strong, but i think they would be asked to come in at such a discount to either of the big 2 conferences that they will not be williing. Other than that i think u have made some great points and i can definitely get on board with everything else you said.
FSU & Clemson are headed to the SEC, they aren’t AAU certified, UNC, Miami to B10 they are AAU certified. The government research money that comes from AAU certified schools rivals football money.
TJ I respectfully disagree with you. Clemson and FSU will end up in the SEC. They are not AAU certified which is a requirement of the Big 10. It won’t matter that the SEC has teams already in those states. It viewership that matters and ESPN will make a deal with Sankey to make that happen. UNC, Virginia, Duke, and Miami are all AAU certified and more likely to go to the Big 10. Virginia Tech and Nort1Carolina State fit more in the SEC. Nebraska who lost AAU might get booted from the Big 10 and may also end up in the SEC

@@CFBAddictionSounds like a good timeframe for your next video. Wait until then.
@@CFBAddiction You are delusional just like most FSU fans. LOL
@@WeSRT4 He's not an FSU fan. He's a shill... He didn't even boycott ESPN for all the meaningless bowl games. The beeeyotch has multiple channels just to rake in more money because he feels he can't do it now that FSU fans know he's a fake.
Can we do this quickly, like NOW, so we don't have to call Stanford, Cal and SMU "ACC teams"?
I agree 👍, please hurry 🙏 😅
I'm really surprised that Stanford isn't throwing it's money around. They have as much or more money than ND. Their administration doesn't appear to value their athletic programs the way other schools do. They have been a top program in Olympic sport for many years.
NCSt, Louisville are NEVER getting into the B1G.
Personally, I would rather see the SEC and ACC rivalries united into the SEC. Let FSU/UF, Clem/SC, Louisville/UK play as conference rivals as well as state rivals.
All of this has gone off the rails. It should be:
FSU, Clemson, NCST and VT to the SEC
UNC, UVA, ND and Miami to the Big Ten
Pitt, Louisville, Duke and GT to the big 12.
But we can’t have things make sense.
Your proposal is definitely what the big ten wants, the question is what the SEC wants or if that's good enough for them. Academics to the Big Ten, football powerhouses to the SEC. New states matter less each passing day. If you're telling me the big two conferences and networks are actually working together this seems much more likely than what's presented in the video. Yes, money money money, but only considering TV markets is also off. Louisville is not going to the big 10 for any price.
Im hearing the SEC wants UNC and UVA along with @RedMagee409 list of programs. The Big will snag ND, Miami along with Cal and Stanford. The Big and SEC will have 22 programs each. There’s also rumors of Duke and either Ok State/ GT ( Big 12 exit fee is potentially troublesome) taking temporary partial tv shares to become members of the SEC.
This is more likely
U always talk about the top teams...can u do one on the other teams to..luv the show thanks bunches
Thank you! Yes, I’ll try to work it in.
Man NO ONE watches UNC football. I have a hard time believing a word you say about UNC given this.
UVA and VT aren’t a package deal. This guy has no idea what he’s talking about.
Tell the VA Legislature and the Virginia AG, because those two have stated differently.
ACC and Big East will merge and become just a basketball conference
Thanks for the update and opinions of conference realignment for ACC schools.
When it comes to Miami, I disagree with your assessment. You and everyone else in the outside world don't understand the Miami metropolitan sports fanbase. You alluded to Miami fans loving the pro sports teams, but missed the mark. What the people in the metro Miami and SF area love is a winner. They will get behind whatever team is winning. There are too many things going on around the city that fans will not waste their time and money with the blind loyalty that you see around the landscape of college football. The Canes fans are there. They are passionate. They are the ultimate consumer. You will not get their money if you don't win. You will in spades if you do win. That's the bottom line.
Secondly, I disagree that Miami winds up in the SEC. Miami is an AAU school with a ton of available academic research with it's UM Healthcare. That would be a big coup for the B1G. I just don't see the B1G letting all that academic research slide.
I also believe the perception and reality of teams could change after the 2024 season. It depends if FSU and Clemson get out of the conference before the 2024 season ends. I believe Miami is ascending nationally and Clemson is regressing. The 2024 tv viewership should increase dramatically for Miami. I think the tv numbers for Miami will open a lot of eyes if they have the kind of season that results in an ACC title and CFP appearance. That would change the game for Miami and give them leverage for a full share or shorter period leading to a full share in whichever conference they join.
If you're paying attention, Miami is quietly making moves and positioning itself with back 2 back top 10 recruiting classes and is set for a 3rd. My understanding is the Miami NIL program is bankrolled by 4 billionaires and fans are joining the Canes Connection NIL collective they started. Miami is also building new facilities on campus. No need for an on campus stadium. Hard Rock hosts CFP games and Super Bowls. It is centrally located for all Canes fans and is one of the best stadiums in the country.
The fact that Miami is not vocal against the ACC is irrelevant. It serves no purpose at this point in time and has no benefit for Miami at this time. The Miami administration will play its hand at the appropriate time that maximizes their opportunities.
How this guy still has more scenarios is quite impressive. He literally has thrown everything against the wall.
🎩🐇
A Virginia school being in the SEC is more important to them than Big 10. Many Virginia/Virginia Tech alumni live in Washington, DC market. Big 10 has Maryland and they have a lot of DC and Baltimore alumni (top 25 markets). SEC only has Dallas and Miami (through Texas and Florida). Everyone should be thinking top TV markets for these conferences.
The Big 12 will not take Duke, if they cannot play Football and Basketball in the Conference.
Duke good at basketball
I just hope Louisville gets to the SEC or a super mega conference is born. I’m not delusional I know we won’t but I would love to.
I think Lousiville would be a good fit in the basketball conference Big12 with teams like kansas, Arizona, and baylor. Maybe Gonzaga joins too.
Your comment on Duke football has done much lately , when has UNC done anything in , losing their last several bowl games , haven’t won an ACC Championship since 1981 , but Duke has won their latest 3 bowl game , won a ACC Championship in 1989 and in the history has 17 conference championship vs Unc has a total of only 7 !
That group should start their own conference.
I agree. The SEC and B1G are overstuffed already. I bigger chunk of a smaller pie might be better in the long run.
Let's call it the ACC
The G-8 Conference
FSU and Clemson want to stop playing these schools, except each other. Might as well stay in the ACC.
I estimate at 95 percent that Clemson and FSU will be going to the SEC and that they will be the only ACC leaving soon.
If what you say comes to fruition the SEC is DONE! It will be a matter of time before the B1G starts poaching SEC teams.
SHHH, follow the plan.
Florida will do everything to keep FSU and Miami out of SEC.
While money is still a major factor you can't overlook the social and cultural factors in this type of realignment analysis. Clemson fits the SEC culture much better than Miami, while Miami's international reputation fits what the Big Ten is looking for like a glove. Plus adding both FSU and Miami is still adding a new state for Fox.
For NC, if you have to split that state then shifting NC State to the SEC and Duke to Big Ten is the better way. Big Ten values elite academics and Duke would be a massive get for the BTAA. Plus (and here's where you're missing the bigger picture) Duke and Miami would be lures for Notre Dame. Yes, we're all aware of the Domers and their refusal to join a conference but Big Ten legacy programs still haven't given up. Don't ask me why.
So I think the breakdown would go like this:
SEC - Clemson, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Virginia Tech
Big Ten - Virginia, Duke, Florida State, Miami
(future) - Stanford, Cal, Notre Dame
Louisville is not joining the Big Ten. Not a good fit.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Anything is possible in realignment! 😉
Agreed.
I can see the Big 10 taking FSU with the understanding FSU is taking steps towards AAU membership. But, I don't know if Big 10 presidents could stomach schools like Clemson or NC State. I also think Georgia Tech is underrated in realignment. GT in the Big 10 seems realistic.
I'd rather have boston college than Georgia Tech for the ND angle.
@@Mike-sp7zv Fair. I guess it comes down to which team will make the most people sign up for streaming services.
@@adam6072 I don't think the B10 wants part of the georgia vs georgia tech game either if it does become an sec vs B10
I agree. I think NC State stays in the ACC, and they get alimony and or a basketball and football scheduling agreement with UNC. FSU and Miami to the Big 10 and UNC and UVA or Kansas to the SEC.
@@Mike-sp7zv That rivalry could boost Big 10 viewership at least for home GT games though.
FSU and Clemson to the b10.
Unc and Virginia to the sec. ncst and vtech also to the sec with much reduced share of tv payouts.
This results in both conferences reaching 20 teams.
Miami, Louisville, gt, and duke to b12.
I disagree everything you said about Clemson. Clemson brings a better fan base and more revenue to the SEC than the Gamecocks will ever bring. Also Clemson brings a national audience for TV games. When is the last time you were excited to see South Carolina play a game?
NCAA has killed college athletics, period.
portal stupidity, colleges = agents, mega-conference greed, 4 hour games (w/ 2.5 hours of ads),...
i simply don't support/watch this sh!t anymore. local HS sports are better & more fun.
No, they did not. They robbed college sports for years until court cases were finally heard. The whole system is and has always been flawed. What the court has said is that the NCAA does not get to act like a monopoly. They would/should have had a special exception from Congress to govern football or collective bargain with student athletes. The NCAA is just another corporate entity that must follow corporate laws. The reason the NCAA allowed transfers at any time is because they had to. NIL and freedom of movement must be collectively bargained just like the NFL. The courts have said they don't have the power to regulate things that must be collectively bargained. That's what the B1G and SEC will do with it's new power conference a few years down the road.
@@shawnandrews329 NCAA is not a monopoly? Riiiiiiiight. Got it.
I agree, don't state "where ar the ACC teams landing", it was just a waste of my time.
B1G will in its FSU & UNC at full shares to get to 20. Of the B1G expands past 20 then I could see Miami, UVA and GT. They will stay at 23 and wait out ND. The SEC if they expand will bring in Clemson, NCSt, BT and Kansas all at a discount. B12 will grab Louisville, Duke, Pitt, SDSU & UConn and focus on dominating BB even more even if they lose Kansas. Wake, BC and Syracuse will work with Calford and SMU to keep the ACC as a P4 conference. They will invite WSU, OSU, USF, Tulane, Memphis, UTSA, AF, CSU, Fresno St and Boise State to make a 16 team conference.
I think that nobody outside of Notre Dame is getting more than half shares till the next deal in 2030. The B1G Presidents set a precedent last year adding Wa/Or at half shares till the next deal. Last thing they would want to do would be to create discord in the conference with unequal revenue to it's newest members. Plus it's safe to assume if that was the case, then all four west coast teams would simply vote no on expansion.
In 4 years or less, there will only be a power 2 that will join together for a mega conference with governing rules for transfers and NIL. They will no longer be governed by the NCAA.
Being a college basketball fan only is frustrating during these times. Seeing the power of college football fundamentally dictate the direction of college basketball just doesn't sit right with me, but football is King in this country 🤷
Missing USC and Washington from the Big 10 in your video description
Good catch!
Ninja boy has gone off his rocker.
🤯🤝
I know GT may not be a needle-moving brand, but I think they have enough going for them to be a sleeper team for the B1G. (New state with great recruiting potential, location in the heart of downtown Atlanta, AAU member)
But they don't take football seriously, therefore they don't have the ATL market.
The question is how many seats are available ? If the B1G takes 2 teams? Is GT the #1 or #2 team to take? If B1G takes more, okay. That’s the challenge with this round of realignment is that it appears most seats are taken. So many articles and insiders say that the B1G takes 2, SEC takes 2-4, and where do the other schools go? Maybe the Power 2 will take more? No one knows, not even the decision makers yet. And even the insiders are guessing.
Mary had a little lamb, his fleece had been dyed blue. Every time he wagged his tail you could see his FSU
Well if UN C goes to the SEC in football, they will be just another team for the big boys to beat up on , much like South Carolina and Vanderbilt!
Same story if they went to the B1G. They'd get the crap beat out of them by Ohio State, Michigan USC, Oregon, and a whole bunch of other teams.
I mean that's what they are in the ACC.
@@timothymbess Yes, but they'd join Rutgers, Maryland, Indiana, Purdue, Iowa, Minnesota, Northwestern and on any given year another half dozen teams.
What about Cal and Stanford?
They should join the Big 12 with the other former PAC-12 schools already there. Makes the most sense.
My personal wish list for SEC additions would be Florida State; Miami; Clemson and last but not least, Georgia Tech. All four have natural rivals in the SEC and Georgia Tech was a charter member of the conference.
I’m sure it will never happen, but that’s the my dream scenario
The hate in your voice when you talk about Miami is why I root for them 😂
Did you ever study science or law? Because this video has zero, absolutely no evidence! You obviously don't understand evidence.
All speculation at this time.
Go back to the black board boy and come up with more possibilities.
B10: FSU, Miami, ND, Stanford
sec: Clemson, Virginia Tech, UNC, Duke
Big12: Pitt, Lousiville, NC State
Ivy league: cal, Georgia Tech
ACC: Uconn, Memphis, Army, Navy, Air force
Remove FSU and replace with UNC
The B1G is adding FSU, UNC, Clemson, and ND because that's where those schools want to go to maximize their revenue for sports AND academics.
This looks reasonable, assuming that FSU can push that extra mile for AAU. Otherwise, FSU’s spot can be taken by UNC or VA
SEC doesn't want Virginia Tech or Duke. Only Duke if they took a massive, permanent smaller annual payout.
@@thinkbradand you know this by…???
5 seconds in. He says “My predictions.” Bro the title is completely clickbait. 💀
As a B1G fan, I don't mind FSU coming on board, but I don't care to see any of the other ACC teams join the B1G.
FSU and Miami Hurricanes will be in the BIG 10 …..
Did you wake up a smoke some good stuff this morning!? This has no chance of happening.... delusional to say the least.
Always very interesting. Thanks
Thank you!!
Nc state isn’t leaving the acc. It benefits nc state more to stay in acc from a championship perspective.
Big12 then
It will be short lived. Within 4 years, there will only be a power 2. Schools not in the P2 will have their own championship.
Duke could easily tell the SEC to take them on in all spots because of their brand
Miami well not go to the big 12 lets make that clear right now! Jamie
Unless they improve markedly this year, there is no value add for them to go to B1G or SEC. Both conferences already have a group of doormats and there just really is no added value for a program that can't fill their stadium regularly. There is also no reason to believe that UM will magically turn it around in a season or two.
@user-ql3fd2zd3u I think 🤔 you have had too much Kool-Aid with something inside of it ! Miami brings big value any moron would tell u that ! Duh 🙄 jamie
@@LoneWolfeServicesMiami has had 2 top five recruiting classes and is getting top tier portal additions. Miami is investing in football. Miami is beginning to start keeping Miami highschool talent in house. Take away a few boneheaded call by Mario they will be a consistent top 10-20 team soon.
@robless9765 They had top 5 teams consistently when Shannon was there and Duaz. Your recruiting class really doesn't mean much in the era of the transfer portal. So, I'm kinda one of those I have to see it to believe it. At this point, what I've seen is either the players don't match their ratings or the coaching staff is completely inept. Based on previous experience, I'd say most of the issues lie with the staff.
@@LoneWolfeServices agree except back then Miami admin didn’t care about football and the budget was like wake forrest. Not the car anymore- big budget now.. the momentum is definitely on the upswing.
I didn’t realize this guy was an FSU fan. It explains why the bashing of Miami and him always putting Miami in the Big12. Like the SEC or Big10 would allow the biggest TV market to go to the Big12. FSU has a larger fan base but no TV market for Tallahassee.
Miami is a rinky dink private school in a pro sports town.
Miami has been irrelevant for two decades. Home attendance is abysmal, sort of like their fb program.
That's a good point. It's not obvious, but media market $value$ goes beyond actual fan base size. Indeed, it's really about grandpa casually leaving the channel on Fox or ABC or whatever as programming rolls into the next intriguing game (LSU Bama or whatever). B10 Network, SEC network ... now those are FANS tuning in to some obscure channel, like streaming. But that's not what's generating the numbers on the major networks. And big cities (eg Miami) help add that $value$
Sucks to be U.
lol average attendance at home games is like 40k and sold out for the Clemson and fsu. Miami plays in a pro football superbowl caliber stadium- of course it looks like fans don’t show up for low level games.
@CollegeFootballAddiction
Any chance you can do a video speculating replacement teams (besides SMU, Stanford, and UCLA) based on the departure of the 7 who are going out? Who would the ACC target to fill the void?
USF, ECU, Charlotte, Memphis, Tulane, Rice, Liberty, Marshall, etc.
Slim pickings…
Jesus. Weak click bait.
How is their working together not collusion?
Breaking!!! This is what i think......
I like the VA teams assessment but one minor detail omitted. The legislature handling the conference discussions said it wasn't about keeping VT and UVA in the same conference, but ensuring each school is not left out if the other heads to brighter pasture.
This was the key in VT going to the ACC after UVA tried to veto it at first. ACC was destroying the BIG East and the VA legislature stepped in to not have VT get relegated out of the P5/4. So if both have spots in the P2, it works.
CLICK BAIT! Uggggggh!!! But I made it, watched the whole thing and liked.
❤️
I'm an NC State Alumni, and a fan since the 80's. I've also lived in Raleigh and dealt with UNC alumni my whole life. I for the life of me cannot see UNC Alumni and Board members stomaching being in the SEC. They would be so much better off with the Big 10 for a multitude of reasons.
Same for NC State to the SEC. Ironic that everyone wants UNC for football over NCSU, because by all metrics except T-shirt Sales, NCSU is a better team.
Thanks! Coach Mario’s first hurdle was to eliminate the subculture & mediocrity that was crippling team development…he’s taken care of this problem, & if all goes according to plan, we looking at a Dynasty in the making. But, as always…the Canes biggest hurdle is with the NCAAF, & the big programs who no longer have first dibs in South Florida.
There’s no way that the SEC and the Big 10 are taking more than two schools each.
What would you say are the 6 most desirable acc schools are? My list would be
1. UNC
2. FSU
3. Miami
4. Clemson
5. Virginia Tech
6. Pitt
That's not counting ND. Now I do think teams like Pitt fit better in the Big12 because of rivals such as WVU, but teams like Stanford offer a lot in academics and championships in non revenue sports
@@Mike-sp7zv I like your list. I’d probably rearrange it a little but the only team I would completely remove is Pitt and replace them with Louisville. Locked on Big 12 just came out with an interesting video that listed the top schools for athletic earnings. NC State was a lot higher than expected and so was Duke. It didn’t take into account donors but rather just the athletics department.
I don't know what you're talking about, but as a Miamian of 45 years, I can tell you Miami sport fans love the Canes as much as the Dolphins or any other team down here. You're very biassed, obviously!
Have you watched a Miami football game? Outside of the Florida State football game, there are no fans in the stands. It looks bad for the University of Miami, it looks bad for the ACC, and it is a bad look for attracting the interest of a new conference. That being said, the Big XII wants Miami as its premier member. A number of Old Big East rivals are likely headed there. The ACC 2.0 could survive for some time, but Miami must put some fans in the stands. 🐴🔥🏹
If Clemson ends up in the B1G, I think that will be my inflection point to quit CFB.
I’ve stomached all the other changes but Clemson vs Minnesota being a conference game may be the straw that broke the camels back.
What I’ve loved about CFB is regional rivalries. Sad day.
BIG is not going to add Clemson.
Miami will definitely go to big 10 to try and get us to go to big 10
Any school that does not add at least $60m to the conference and are willing to accept that reduced income, is not getting into either conference.
There will be no schools splitting sports between conferences. Duke will not play basketball in the SEC, the Big XII is a much stronger basketball conference.
This commentary is obviously not fresh, just still interesting after FSU and Clemson filed their most recent court cases against the ACC. If the (big IF) the current conference commissioners puts more effort behind returning to a status quo yet going to the proposed 70-team super conference the overwhelming appearance of the SEC's and B1G strength over college football--if not all of college sports. "Returning to a status quo yet going to the proposed 70-team super conference" means the status quo would be a reprieve return to allowing for regionalism akin to the traditional conferences of pre-2014 college football world while allowing college football funds to dictate that sport only. We'll see if there is less cowardice in the leadership around collegiate sports than it's been up to this point.
A MORE realistic view of how things end up…
ACC: Boston College, Syracuse, SMU, Wake Forest, Duke, Georgia Tech, Stanford, Cal, Va Tech, Louisville, Pitt, NC State, UNC, Notre Dame, Virginia, UConn, Oregon State, Washington State, Boise State, South Florida and Memphis
Big 10: Miami and Colorado
SEC: Clemson and Kansas
Big XII or AAC or Independent: Florida State & Clemson
Sorry, Probably the worst analysis I’ve seen in realignment predictions
FSU and Clemson aren't leaving the ACC to go to the Big12 or to go Independent and ND isn't staying the a depleted ACC of bottom feeder teams.
@@roris5882 fsu and Clemson are both SEC bound. UNC and Virginia are B1G bound. Pitt Louisville and maybe VT are B12 bound. Miami will go independent until eventually landing in the SEC. This is more realistic.
So, here is the problem with your B1G teams. I read a recent article that said there are enough university presidents that will not accept any school that is not an AAU member. Remember USC is in the B1G and was against adding any Big 12 teams to the PAC 12. I'm sure the 4 new teams are part of the group to block non AAU members from joining. Also, the SEC has said they want state schools so the thought of them adding Miami is laughable.
FSU has to join the b1G to get voted into the AAU because there is no incentive for the B1G to help them get voted in if they go to the SEC.
Joker lost his mind. 4 years fs been trying to get out of the ACC. Only team convinced is Clemson. ACC just need to schedule and win games vs big 10 and sec.
Btw, I do disagree with you, @College Football Addiction. You keep saying that the SEC wouldn't be interested in FSU & Clemson because the SEC has a team in each of those states, Florida & South Carolina. I say you're wrong because of one thing you didn't take into the equation: ad rates!!
I don't understand how adding a state, or even a media market, benefits a conference. Syracuse and Pitt added NY and Penn, but neither helped the ACC at all. It's all about fan base, and only teams with large fan bases bring any value. That's why Duke and Wake are worthless even though the teams aren't that bad.
Depends on the school, and the state. But big states and their respective flagships (eg, UNC & UVA) are targets #1, 2, & 3. Like it or not, FSU is not the State Flagship, and these sites are 'over selling,' IMO
If u think UVA has a bigger fan base than VT, in Va, you know nothing.
@chrisg4931 fan base and TV ratings are not the same thing. It's also about markets, and UVA is a much better $spot$
@@christopherhooter1937ok then what do u know about Va, 757 or DC markets? I assume you live here as I do? Please tell…
@chrisg4931 According to Pete Thamel: UNC and UVA would be top two targets for SEC. I gather they've had this conversation w ESPN. Which means ESPN values UVA over VaT.
Culturally I would agree that VaT would be a better fit. But so would WVU, and apparently that don't $work$ either for SEC / ESPN
Didn’t really confirm where fsu is going.
His “BREAKING” guess is abt as good as urs bro
The Big XII will end up with more teams out of the ACC than the B1G. I don’t see the B1G adding more than 2 teams and the SEC 4. The Big XII will add a minimum of 4 possibly more.
I don’t see Clemson in the B1G. SEC gets Clemson and the B1G FSU. Miami will most likely be the running mate with FSU. Then SEC will take Clemson/NC/NCST and one more. Big XII will have pick of the litter afterwards
What you said makes sense. I would agree with that, except Clemson filed a lawsuit for a reason. We know that conference realignment happens in pairs, so either Clemson is going to the B1G or Both FSU and Clemson wind up in the SEC. It makes more sense that FSU and Clemson go to the SEC.
@@shawnandrews329 Yeah but why would they both go to the SEC? They are battling against ESPN especially FSU and the SEC is ran by ESPN. Better chance of both going B1G.
Miami to the SEC would make sense. They could be the new doormat of the SEC. South Vandy Canes.
Miami isn't going to the SEC they don't have their own stadium which is in the SEC by-laws
This guy doesn’t understand what drives the Big 10. They look for big lucrative TV markets and AAU membership. That is why Rutgers and Maryland were brought in. They are both in the biggest TV market in the country. Same with USC and UCLA they are at the heart of the second biggest TV market. Washington and Oregon are both in relatively large TV markets. But in all this the Big 10 has only offered membership to AAU members. So Clemson, FSU, NC State, and Virginia Tech, and any other non-AAU schools will more than likely not be joining the Big 10.
Miami, Virginia, North Carolina, Duke, Boston College, Georgia Tech., Berkley, Stanford, and the University of Southern Florida are all AAU. Miami, North Carolina, Virginia, Boston College, Stanford, and Berkley also bring in reasonably big TV market with affluent fans.
Why in the world would the Big 12 take Duke football only? The league is not interested in obtaining a mediocre, at best, football program.
I hope you’re wrong. An I believe you’re wrong.
• Neither SEC or B1G will split a school (Duke) and just take basketball.
• You underestimate Clemson’s presence in NC. Charlotte is closer to Clemson than Chapel Hill.
• You underestimate the number of OSU transplants in SC. B1G already has huge footprint in SC.
• You think UNC is more valuable than Clemson. No, not until they get off their wallet and really start investing in sports.
• Clemson is a much better fit in SEC. Clemson to B1G would be like putting a round peg in a square hole.
• If B1G and ESPN really are coordinating the (questionable) it is Clemson and FSU (the two most valuable programs) that will be split.
We see along the same lines but with one key difference.....
FSU & ND are the 2 major brands that must be split. Then the chips fall around them. Remember a core tenant of this whole situation is FSU not liking ND's amount of sway while not being a full member.
You so funny when was the last time you went to miami its all about the canes down their. So get your facts right dude. I live their everyone down here is a serious fan. Go canes.
I disagree about Duke. The driving force behind this is football, which Duke is weak on, making the SEC and Big 10 less interested in them. And as far as basketball is concerned, that doesn't mean that much to the SEC and the Big 10 as football or what basketball means to the Big 12. So they would best fit the Big 12, despite their whiny lying about BYU's racism.
I'm not sure why I expected him to say anything good about Miami. Miami in the SEC would be......
I agree with what you said about him saying anything good about Miami. I didn’t realize he was an FSU fan. I think, though, the BIG10 would want Miami because of the TV market for them.
Every teams landing spot revealed but only FSU Clemson and UNC are "revealed".
You said at first that this was your opinion and then you mentioned that this is what your sources have said it’s gonna happen. Also, I noticed your opinions way heavily towards the Big Ten and SEC when clearly show four of those schools going to the big 12.
I agree with pretty much everything u said but inthink Duke is a stretch. I just dont see them fitting with either of the big 2 conferences. Yes their basketball program is verrrrrryyyyy strong, but i think they would be asked to come in at such a discount to either of the big 2 conferences that they will not be williing. Other than that i think u have made some great points and i can definitely get on board with everything else you said.
FSU & Clemson are headed to the SEC, they aren’t AAU certified, UNC, Miami to B10 they are AAU certified. The government research money that comes from AAU certified schools rivals football money.
FSU has to join the B1G to get voted into the AAU because they have a monopoly over it.
A very pro ACC take. In reality after FSU it’s not clear if any other ACC teams is truly additive to either the B1G or SEC.
If FSU was as valuable as they think they are, ESPN would've already facilitated their departure to the SEC by now
