Well VT would absolutely throw a fit with politicians if UVA got an invite to the SEC or BIG.
And it's funny. Because regardless of what Mike Slive thought - and his record was pretty much beyond reproach regarding how he guided the SEC - I think Va Tech and NC State would fit so much better, culturally in the SEC. Virginia and UNC are too much "old money". Too Texas - as we're going to learn.
Va Tech and N.C. State would have been the bomb as far as expansion goes. Still would, maybe.

Yeah, but VA Tech fans are delusional. They act like they have the history of Michigan, yet Ole Miss is likely better.
UVA-UNC adds a great rivalry, and adds to basketball and baseball. Neither are great in football, but we added Missouri, which added TV markets, and little else.

I don't. I think that UVA and UNC are perfect for UT, Vandy, and UK. VT is close enough but I don't see the similarities that everyone else does beyond VT at one point fielding a few decent football teams. UVA has basketball - BOTH men's and women's whereas VT not so much. I'm not sure what the hell NCState has other than an overrated program that couldn't even beat Dooley coached teams.
