FC/OT: ‘Magnificent 7’ ACC schools examining if grant of rights is truly unbreakable…
- Thread starter Midnighter
- Start date
So let's see. That leaves ASWP, Cuse, BC, 'Ville, Duke, Wake, and GT. LMFAO.
Should be pretty simple. The seven Cuckoo's Nest named were instrumental in creating the GOR. Who better than the lawyers they enlisted to create it to see if it's breakable.
McMurphy is such a douche.
NC State has no business on that list. I can't really see either the SEC or Big Ten having any interest in them.
Duke would make more sense than NC State, especially for the Big Ten which values academics.

Big Ten values cash more.
While the Big Ten or SEC might not want NC State, the Big 12 might be interested.
The leftovers mentioned would make a decent G5 Big East Football Conference.
Reheated leftovers from the freezer.
But, the AAC may be open to new applicants. Most fans would hardly notice the acronym change.
I like the way you think. Link up the "leftovers" to the current Big East in a structure similar to the original. I hear Mike Tranghese is available.
Not sure that the ACC lawyers can work that fast. By the time they finish, it'll be the PAC-3.
You may not like McMurphy, but you have to admit that his twitter picture DOES resemble Cliff Clavin...
Please forgive me for being a relative noob. I know that ASWP is Pitt but what does it stand for?
His resemblance to Cliff Clavin extends well beyond the physical.You may not like McMurphy, but you have to admit that his twitter picture DOES resemble Cliff Clavin...
A Sociopath With Paranoia.
Lol. Duke fan base is only passionate about BB. Pack fans support FB, Bb, wrestling, etc. NC State is a good athletics fit and absolutely has business being on that list. They are not AAU, but they still have some solid academic programs.
Not AAU? Then nc state is a non-starter for the academic-first b1g.
No, they are going to replace Nebraska as the token non-AAU and let BigRed join the new version of the Pac12.
Assume the ACC is able to split - what happens? Where do Clemson and FSU go? SEC? What about UVA, VT, Pitt, UNC, NC State? Could see maybe Pitt and NC State to Big XII, UVA and VT would be nice fits in the B1G, but what about a few other big fish? Stanford, ND? Would the B1G want them over the ACC remnants? I think if we can take ND and Stanford, you do that and close up shop.
The.....Magnificent.....Seven...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Clemson and Miami are definitely wanting the SEC, I think that’s obvious for most. UNC is the primary school for the B1G. Question is FSU, AAU members, and 3 Florida schools to SEC? Washington, Oregon, those 4 make 20. ND and Stanford make 22.
You almost need 24 team so think smart schools.
Duke, Wake Forest or Virginia
Need 6 for a west division so California?

Penn State's College of Agriculture has done numerous research projects with NC State in the past and NC State was the birthplace of the "Mountain" series of tomato varieties which are resistant to tomato blight and have saved mucho amount of money to commercial tomato growers, which is also a big cash crop in Pennsylvania.
Everyone wants out except the schools with nowhere to go. Whither ASWP? LMFAO.
The b1g laughs at tomatoes (but not at tomato cans).
Bicycle Field at Hallmark Stadium. Topps NIL deal is collecting momentum.
Geez. Didn't they just get there? Entire schools are now entering the transfer portal.
I’m not so sure. They played Alabama very tough and won a couple. The ACC is weak but they are legit.
THE Ohio State University is also one of the leading research universities for cabbage and cabbage growth research, since one of the biggest cash crops for the state of Ohio is cabbage.... of course that lends itself to many good cabbage jokes.
Always good to have a farmer’s perspective. My roommate at PSU was a horticulture major and he’d point out and identify every tree and plant during our campus walks. Fascinating as hell.
Pitt not one of the "Magnificent 7." Oooh, that must burn.

Little known fact, Normie.You may not like McMurphy, but you have to admit that his twitter picture DOES resemble Cliff Clavin...
It's not new. The old Big East used to do it.
I'm not opposed. As it stands, schools that don't go to bowls wind up, in most cases, better off financially than those that do (nothing like profligacy).
