I dunno who said it on 107.5 the game ... but he is a fool. I would suspect it was either Benji Norton maybe, or the Phillips guy? Could have been Hubbs is it? I dunno. The few times I've listened I've heard some really ridiculous stuff from some who claim to be experts.

Had we not bitten the bullet and left the ACC, the ACC would have destroyed us.


No it was the older guy who does the morning show.

I think he just means how disastrous it was for our athletic programs to try and go out and be independent. I know there were a lot more independents out there than there are today but did that move not completely kill our basketball and football momentum?

eta: Perhaps if the opportunity where there to jump straight into the SEC he wouldn't believe that, but drifting around as a football independent and a nobody conference in other sports for 20 years dealt a serious blow.

Tommy Moody or Bob Spears?

Doesn't sound like something Tommy would say.

Bob has always been a bit of an ACC apologist, barely old enough to remember when we got out of the ACC but old enough to have been maybe influenced by his parents who may have been pro-ACC.

I've actually heard Bob defend Clemson and the ACC on several occasions so it sounds like something Bob may have said perhaps.

ETA: Benji is probably in his mid-50s as well so I suppose "older guy" is relative.
