Maybe you misread the headline story about FSU’s top commit safety Mekhi Williams loving his Wisconsin visit. The Badgers must be throwing cash and coeds at Williams to get him interested in their declining program.
 

Honestly, it’s one of the funnier “I know a guy” type stories. Word is it’s a “done deal”. We’ll see if I’m just eating the garbage though.

It’s no secret FSU would love a B1G invite and it wouldn’t surprise me if it happened, especially with our new Commissioner.

VT/UVA doesn't seems like much of a deal, they have not been in the ACC together for that long.

As for NC St/NC if the Oklahomas can divorce, maybe so can the Carolinas.

VT is only in the ACC because UVa/Virginia legislators insisted on it.

Maybe but I don't see them abandoning both NC State and Duke.

Perhaps, maybe they can write a big enough check like UCLA did.

If they don't see the ACC as viable long term, anything is possible.

I couldn't see Oklahoma & Nebraska ever separating. Ditto for Texas & Texas A&M.

Who is coming with, Virginia or North Carolina?

Yes
And Georgia tech too

+ 2 more to get to 24

The candidates beyond those 4 include (in order, probably)
Notre Dame
Miami
Arizona State
Duke
Colorado
Utah
Kansas
Stanford

Looking to add Markets, AAU, football in that order.


West:
USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington, Nebraska, Notre Dame

Midwest:
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, northwestern, Iowa, Purdue

northeast:
Michigan, Michigan State, Rutgers, Indiana, Ohio State, Penn State

Southeast:
Florida state, Georgia Tech, Maryland, North Carolina, Miami, Virginia

Schedule:
11 game schedule
Play 5 in your division, play an entire other division (plus Iowa Nebraska swap one opponent to preserve rivalry)
5 teams you play every year
Play all the league home and home in 6 years.
One buy game

24 works better than 28 for scheduling by a lot.


20 would be interesting and could have a similar scheduling model with 4 groups of 5:

Maryland, North Carolina, Florida State, Penn State, Rutgers

Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue, Indiana, Ohio State

Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Illinois

Northwestern, Oregon, Washington, USC, UCLA

Play your 4 plus another group of 5. Northwestern and Illinois swap one game to preserve rivalry. Home and home against everyone is 6, still 3 non conference games.

I dont get why people think this is a “thing”.

UCLA left without California.
Oklahoma left without Oklahoma State
A&M left without Texas
Washington left without Washington State
Oregon left without Oregon State

UNC is leaving the ACC as soon as their GOR expires or they can reasonably eat whatever remaining exit fees exist, and NC State won’t even be mentioned in any serious conversations about it.
 







Ferris State University is in fact within the legacy Big Ten footprint and they’ve won multiple D2 titles so they’re ready to make the jump! 😉
