In a parallel universe
Sounds pretty exciting:

Politics of Conference Realignment May 24 Gregg Swaim: "Mr. "Big Time" sports:

http://www.gregswaim.com/2012/05/politic...alignment/

"It was widely assumed just over a month ago that if the Big 12 were to raid any ACC teams it would happen after new commisioner Bob Bowlsby took office, but it looks like most of the raiding could be wrapped up before then…at least unofficially, and with good reason."


"As of today it appears that both Florida State and Clemson will soon officially announce they are “exploring options” and will later announce they want out of the ACC. At which point the Big 12 will make a formal offer and the two schools will join the conference for the 2013 football season.


"But the SEC isn’t waiting around for the Big 12 or Big Ten to grab all of the good teams left on the shelf, and we fully expect to hear news within the next week or so on Virginia Tech exploring their options, which would be the SEC.


"Georgia Tech finally appears to now realize what is going on, and doesn’t want to get left out of the BCS picture (not to mention the big money), and would jump at the SEC. But if they don’t offer could wind up in the Big 12."


"And while news is a little harder to come by in the Big Ten, we’ve even been getting some whispers of the conference looking at Boston College (of course Notre Dame) and Rutgers."


"Duke and North Carolina are begging North Carolina State to stay, and it looks like the Wolfpack are considering staying in the sinking BCS ship that is indeed the ACC"


Will the real, true, actual insider please stand up?

Georgia Tech has no shot at the SEC. If the SEC is going to repeat markets, they would take FSU first.

I never trust Greg Swaim, and this makes me laugh at his posts even more than usual.

No I get it Swaim is dumb and has bad sources. Blah blah blah. But I just felt the need to attack that point in particular.

I like the ship analogy. Here is another one.

A giant cue stick would come from the heavens and strike the earth making it ricochet off the sun and knocking it into another galaxy before Duke or Carolina would admit the possibility that NC State might exist.
