They would stand to lose money by joining the ACC. Not happening. They play footsy with the Big 10 and big 10 can’t bring them in. Move on
Have you even looked at the TV ratings the last couple years? Wake is solidly in the middle of the conference. Go shit somewhere else.
In a sense yes but we are averaging middle of the pack viewership numbers with decent football results but nothing dominating and very shitty basketball years. If we can string together some great basketball with football for the next half decade, we very well may have a decent spot at the table.As much as Donald is being doom and gloom, in a sense he’s right. While we have had decent TV numbers in the past couple of years— what’s stopping us from bumming out and they crash again? Even then, with Wake’s perception, we aren’t a big brand nationally speaking that any other conference desperately wants to add especially when we’re probably the fifth biggest brand in our own state. I get we’re on the up-and-up but it just feels like any hope that we’ll wind up not in the Sun Belt or the American is a little optimistic
Honestly, we’re probably 6th in the state.As much as Donald is being doom and gloom, in a sense he’s right.

But what Tier are we?Honestly, we’re probably 6th in the state.
Yeah was rethinking that and forgot abt ECU. Think it goes UNC, State, Duke, App, ECU and us.Honestly, we’re probably 6th in the state.
Wake will end up in a second-tier conference and that'll be fine. There will be lots of good schools with high-level sports left in the cold when this all gets sorted out. In the meantime I'm really curious to see how far the Wake admin will go to help the ACC forestall the day of reckoning. They're saying all the right things now.As much as Donald is being doom and gloom, in a sense he’s right.

WakeMake Stanford the charter member of the Magnolia League
We’ll join with Duke once GoR expires
Vanderbilt and Northwestern will join when the super leagues discard them
I know just the man to be the commish

And our league’s gonna have blackjack and hookers!Agree. Eventually the super conference, or whatever its called, doesn't need the South Carolinas and Minnesotas of the world. There are 15-30 teams that can and are willing to play at that level. If in 10-15 years we end up back in a league that has the most of Duke, UNC, NC State, GA Tech, UVA then I'll be fine. We can play regional games that matter and that will be "college sports." What UGA, OSU and that ilk play will be something different.
If you already have Florida or/and Florida State, Miami doesn’t really bring value to be on that list.I see zero chance the SEC or Big 10 would want NC State. At absolute best they are 6th choice among ACC schools. And that is probably being kind. The schools they’d pursue would likely be Clemson, FSU, UNC, Miami and maybe UVa. So for them to torpedo expansion is baffling.
Miami ranks ahead of both UNC and NC State in terms of college football revenue (at least on the most current list I could find). And Gainesville and Tallahassee are a long drive away from Miami.If you already have Florida or/and Florida State, Miami doesn’t really bring value to be on that list.
And yet you didn't follow your own advice, went to Wake and Duke, and are seemingly doing okay.Easy answer of course. If you want to live in NC, the relationships you build will net you far more money.
Anyone still going to college for the British Lit department?
