God bless Currie and the mountain he has to climb but I chuckle at this stat every time. I'm embarrassed to even ask him where he got this stat as I know he knows that we all know he's trying keep us above water.

Perhaps. But I wouldn't consider a certain percentage of people betting on college football and probably watching 5 games simultaneously loyal fans. But, I get he's trying to promote and save the brand. I'm just glad he doesn't have to provide these numbers to public shareholders and the SEC for regulation and oversight.

I like the hubris. Better than sad face over not having enough NIL or whatever. Never show your cards.

I asked about this and was told the conference commissioned a national survey firm to do this survey and amazingly this was one of the stats that came from the survey. Might have something to do with Wake being everyone’s favorite second team, like rank voting.

Shitting on where someone got a degree always strikes as incredibly childish and stupid. I don’t care where he got his PhD from. The man put in the work and earned it. Don’t be a petty asshat

Are you always this morally outraged by little slights in your daily life as well? If so, I'd highly recommend chilling a little bit my man.

People on these boards shit on people with degrees from other schools deemed "lesser" all the time. It's part of being on a sports message board and talking shit about opposing schools.
 
I hope FSU stays in ACC but if they do, it’s gonna be hell for them now. Again it sucks it all has to be public due to sunshine law and they are doing unc and Clemsons work for them. Hell, they may end up getting out and then UNC slips by them out first because that is who they all covet.

UNC would have to do it just as publicly as FSU. I still really think UNC won’t leave the ACC. Their fans don’t really care about football when it comes down to it.
 
Is Currie the only one with any ACC program that’s made a statement?

I find it small and pathetic, but I am far from morally outraged by it.
Carry on
 
is florida state going to sue the two presidents who signed the GOR on its behalf for breach of their fiduciary duties to the school? All of this is so stupid. Pay $400 million+ and get the fuck out or shut the fuck up.

I don’t see UNC ever leaving the ACC. They are the top dog and would not have nearly the influence in any other league that they have in the ACC. Plus I don’t think they would be allowed to leave without NCSU and wouldn’t want to leave Duke

This. Again, their best bet is the ACC agrees to negotiate which I don't know why they would. FSU isn't winning this lawsuit on the merits. The whole thing is absurd, and no offense to Stoneville, to cap it all off one of the most idiotic fanbases in the country is just running rampant on social media showing their ass to the world. I hope Georgia absolutely wipes the floor with their ass and the SEC and Big 10 tell them to fuck right off
