It's a shame how DEI destroyed American culture and traditions and turned colleges into Hong Kongs and Bombays. Same thing happened in Rhodesia and South Africa and look what shittholes they turned into.


I remember back around the mid to late 2010s when the feds posting this kind of stuff were way more subtle. This is really just sad at this point. Dude, you have to tone it down a LOT if you really want to get people with this.

We can disagree to disagree here, but NC State has a better alum network in what would be a new TV market than UNC.

It is only a rivalry in basketball which would still be played with more schedule options. Outside of the student football is not that big of a game between the two. You can get tickets for 150-175 for lower-level seats right now for game at UNC this fall.

Best idea I’ve heard yet. UNC probably thinks they’ll come in and run the league in basketball. Arkansas thought the same thing in the early 90’s after dominating the SWC. Big Blue put them in their place then, but now blue has a lot of help. There is only Duke to overcome in the ACC, in the SEC, thete is a mountain of wood to choose from now!

For goodness sakes 16 teams right now is more than enough! Can’t ever be happy. Before long the SEC will have 20+ teams in it. I sure do miss the old 12 team SEC.

TV footprint growth


Nobody watches UVA football. NOVA is pro sports and the rest of Virginia is VaTech.

For the life of me, I do not understand what people think VT brings to the table for either the SEC or B1G. Frank Beamer was that program, but he’s gone. There are better schools with better athletic programs available in every direction.

All about Money--UVA and UNC have more alumni than the rest and higher endowments. Not that Duke doesn't have the money, but radical changes would be needed to make the jump--don't see them doing it as a private university.

Pretty much, it would be a battle over who smells their own farts the most.

But we don’t have to and you’re a dumbass for thinking to even add Duke….if we had to.


Way to make Louisianans look like they are splitting the atom while you’re applying to trash truck driver school.

More than UVA brings. People keep bringing up UVA not knowing how bad their fan base is. Va Tech at least brings a loyal rabid fan base to the table. Neither are SEC caliber, but Tech is closer in football.

She doesn't look like Bill at all, really cute daughter though, maybe she's adopted or she takes after Mrs Belichick?
