The Big Ten is a pile of cat diarrhea. If UNC ever joined the Big Ten, I would never care for UNC sports again. Most UNC football fans would feel the same. The basketball-only fools would cheer for UNC basketball, but UNC football would have as few fans as IU or Northwestern.Originally posted by Mphoto:

Because Delaney is an idiot of NJ proportions and thinks he can force us and UVA to move. Either we give the Big Boring Midwest 2 schools in the South, thus making it relevant in the eyes of the SEC and college football, or we go SEC and thus 'force' ND to joing the Big Boring Midwest and thus save it nationally.Originally posted by UNC_Blue:

Money. You will make 10-20M more/year in the B10 or sec. The B10 has better academics, by a mile. The sec has better football. The B10 has better bball.Originally posted by UNC_Blue:

When does that extra money start? I just saw the ACC make 25mm more than the B1G in bowls.Originally posted by Mphoto:

Get over yourself all ready. The UNC's not going anywhere. The ACC is the best b-ball conference, and oh yea, the defending national champion in football, UVA just won a natty is soccer. The SEC is over rated and the b10 just flat out sucks.
Because the Big Teners are always desperate - how else to explain bribing Maryland with travel funds and wanting Rutgers?Originally posted by notUNC71-00:
Haven't we been through this already? Why is it coming up again now?
Exactly - Big Ten football is boring, mediocre crap.Originally posted by Pensacane:
Measurement of academia is very subjective but if you were to use a composite ranking of all of the major conferences via the US News and World Report of colleges, the ACC is waaaay better than Big 10,11,14. But should North Carolina decide to join the Big 10,11,14 I think they would do rather well in football. Consider: Big 10,11,14 newcomers Maryland and Rutgers improved their football record from the prior year of their old conferences. Put another way: Rutgers of the American and Maryland of the ACC did BETTER in their new conference. Let that sink in.
4-4 and 3-5 conference records (Maryland, Rutgers) must be "rather well", as you put it. But, more important are the DC and the NYC markets. We are happy to have both, and their respective bank accounts agree. As far as scholastics, I prefer the more international QC poll, that has Michigan the top public university in the US, and 14th in the world.Originally posted by Pensacane:

I feel sorry for Miami. You and fsu should be in the $ec. And, I know you both would join that conference in a nanosecond.
I have nothing against the ACC, and wish you great success. The business side of me says I'm not so sure. But. I agree that any changes will be years away.
By the way, I did not expect this post to last so long. Good luck.
What makes you think UNC would join the SEC in a nanosecond? UNC isn't going anywhere.
