Conference Expansion: Stanford, California and SMU Join the ACC

Dookies don't even have a thread discussing about the conference realignment. Their top two threads are NBA draft discussion and 23-24 MBB. LOL.

It matters for the Big 10 at least nominally. They always tout the AAU membership of all of their schools. Which, if anyone wonders, WF is not a member of.

Actually Wisconsin ratted on Nebraska andd got them kicked out of the AAU. So every B10 school is AAU with one exception.
 
Oh my bad. Dookies are talking about the realignment in the 'Duke Basketball 2023-2024' thread.

I’d be jealous if that’s the case. Most fear mongering thread annually. It’ll happen some day I’m sure but it’s probably not going to be soon. The chatter and fake sources each and every year are tiring.
 
When the Big 10 hears this, there a bidding war will surely ensue for WF. Guessing the conference that agrees to pay WF's GOR $150 million penalty gets the Deacs...

UGA better watch out. There could be a new favorite in the SEC East...

I see Clemson and a lot of mediocrity. Wake isn't getting a major conference bid on the strength of winning 3 more conference games than VT. All of this recent success Wake has had is only notable for Wake fans, in light of Wake Forest's terrible history. Without that context we are just another mediocre program.

Not totally true. A simple Google search of slow mesh will show you a national audience for Clawson and his program. It's quite remarkable and why we get more viewership that nc state and vt.

I get it but personally I’d prefer something a little less passive than “What I’ve been told is”

He’s not certain he’s in the loop and he’s not indicating anything specific he’s doing to redirect the conversation

It’s commissioner speak
 
So like everyone else. If Apple or Google or Elon Musk decided they wanted to start their own college football conference with exclusive TV rights and they wanted to outbid Disney/ESPN and FOX, Georgia, Ohio State, or whoever would leave in a heartbeat to follow the money.

was just typing the exact same thing. tOSU is happily unified with the rest of the B1G...until it can figure out how to keep all that sweet TV money for itself without sharing with IU, NW, etc.

Why is it that the poster with actual journalistic access is the one whose approach is, the hell else is he supposed to say

How about press him a little and find out
