It wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if in the next 5-10 years that WVU, Cincinnati, UCF, and a few AAC/C-USA schools wind up in an absolutely diluted ACC once it's been picked over by the SEC and Big 10.
There are probably 10 or 15 currently P5 programs that aren't going to make the cut into the new order because of geography, market size, or academics. WVU doesn't really have any of those things going for it. The thought of WVU playing Charlotte or FAU in a version of the ACC that's been relegated to mid-major status is absolutely hysterical.
We'll probably get knocked down a peg in that scenario too but at least we have a home to ride out the impending storm.

It's starting to land hard for them. They're starting to see their reality.

He's not wrong about that. The Big 12 made absolutely zero sense for WVU outside of being safe landing spot from an imploding Big East. In theory, things will be slightly better with Cincinnati and UCF in their division but I'm sure a lot of fans will see those opponents as beneath them.
Those complaints were all very relatable with C-USA. Outside of Southern Miss and maybe WKU, there wasn't a single opponent that I cared about.

I didn't even care about WKU. Heck they moved UAB and SoMiss to the West and stuck us will the noobies. Nobody cared about playing those schools.

What that guy doesn't understand is the Big East schools that left considered them trash and didn't want to play them anymore. They were tired of going there and getting abused by entitled, out of state students. Miami, VT, BC, Syr., Pitt. They want nothing to do with WVU. Louisville has passed them. Cincy will be their peer again with a better city and team. Nobody wants the drunken party school of the 80s around anymore. They've been a national embarrassment for years. Not to mention their hires. Chuggins and Horsewoman....really?
