-- Testudo Times, http://www.testudotimes.com/2012/11/19/ ... ealignmentLike it or lump it, it's now happening: the University of Maryland's Board of Regents voted earlier today to authorize the University to move from the ACC to the Big Ten, a move that was shortly followed by an approved application for Big Ten membership. The University is now the newest Big Ten school.

Endless Mike {l Wrote}:whalepants {l Wrote}:ATLeagle {l Wrote}:Eventually (five year, ten years, who knows) this will lead to a Super League. 60+ teams that throw the traditions and restrictions of the NCAA behind. At that time BC will have to make a decision: do we want to be a University that happens to own a minor league sports franchise or do we want to go back down a path where we play "college" sports (call this the Holy Cross option). Until then all this conference shuffling doesn't mean much. Will BC still bring in TV money? Yes. Will we be able to watch BC play decent teams? Yes. If BC is good will we have access to a championship playoff? Yes. Until Super League time, access and money is all that matters.

twballgame9 {l Wrote}:Yawn. Shitty school, shitty program, shitty state.
The amount of consternation on this board over who is going to be in what conference is laugh out loud funny.
HJS {l Wrote}:If Swofford quickly adds UConn... UVA, VT, UNC and NCS will no longer be members of the ACC in 2 years.
While FSU and Clemson are the most vocal about leaving, the B12 is somewhat constrained in who they can add an the incremental dollars between the ACC and B12 really isn't enough to cover the $50mm buy-out. But, the buy-out isn't nothing for the SEC and B1G. Virginia and North Carolina are the two states that both SEC (developing their own network now) and B1G want a presense in. UNC and UVA to B1G, NCS and VT to SEC... are flip it around... either way... that's what's on deck unless someone doesn't step up and stop the dominos (be that be the assignmnt of rights, new leadership, ND or ESPN coming to their senses).

He was too busy sticking a shiv into the back of BC football.

bcaddict {l Wrote}:I might have shared West's pessimism if not for ND's move a month back. They have every interest in keeping the ACC a viable 5th conference OR one of the Big 4.
Additionally, the B12 is not the B1G nor anything close to it. With the ACC aligning itself with ND, we are much closer to being the 4th than they are. If the ACC responds correctly (ie no CT), this conference will be fine.
UNC/UVA/VT are NOTHING like MD.

I was bummed I couldn't watch that segment. Is it worth watching on their website?
