Pretty decent club lacrosse team in a region with precious few D1 squads.  They might be a prime candidate to jump to D1, especially with Big Ten $$$.

will probably bolt to the SEC and the ACC will be dead. ND will have to choose B1G or BIG 12 or risk being left with nothing.

Obviously FSU is the catch of that conference, but that was never going to happen because of geography.  But is Clemson really better than the teams we got?  Sure, they've been good at football recently, but not great, and they bring nothing else to the table in terms of basketball, a good market, academics, etc.

FSU and Clemson aren't going to the SEC.  There's an agreement between the UF, USCe, and UGA presidents to block any of those schools' instate compadres from joining, and three is all it takes to block a new member.

Jim Delaney is looking to add Oxford as the 16th school.  This will add the London television market as well as the rest of UK.  Who cares if they will be playing Rugby?  Its all about the $.

 

They do make sense Academically though.

I have a friend in Chapel Hill who says that a B1G move is being talked about all over campus.  Then again, at this point that may be true of half the campuses in America.

Maybe they should have delayed honoring Willis Ward until it was a home game against Georgia Tech.

K-State.  GT is a better get than them.  The Pac12 tried to get Texas and the Ok schools and we seen how that went.  People jumped all over Delany about the Big10 Network and look how that worked out.

I wouldn't mind Kansas, but it would be for selfish reasons.   I went to my first non-bowl Michigan game in over two decades this year to Nebraska, because it was driveable.  Kansas would be an even shorter trip.
