If VA Tech gets stuck in a dead ACC I'll be happy

Actually I always thought VT and WVU should have been the three original expansion targets with Miami and not BC and Syracuse. Would have made for a much more interesting conference.

seemed to immediately say "OK, we can stop being good at the football now, we are in a conference."
Had those two continued to be good, the ACC probably is viewed much more favorably as a conference, and probably also got a better TV deal this last time around.

One of the few schools that have a worse mascot than USUck. A castrated turkey 🇹🇷. How do you play with no balls?
