Conference Realignment Impact: If Cal, Stanford, and SMU are indeed closing in on an ACC invitation, it suggests a notable realignment in college sports conferences. This can have far-reaching implications not only for the ACC but also for https://www.bestghostwriters.net/ the conferences these universities are currently affiliated with.

Academic Prestige: Cal and Stanford are renowned for their academic excellence, and their inclusion could enhance the ACC's academic prestige. This aligns with a trend in conference realignment where academic reputation is considered alongside athletic prowess.

The rumored move of Cal, Stanford, and SMU potentially joining the ACC is causing quite a buzz in the world of college sports. While financial details are still being ironed out, this development has the potential to reshape the landscape of collegiate athletics.

The ACC has long been known for its competitive sports programs and academic excellence. Adding these prestigious institutions would only enhance its reputation and create exciting new rivalries. Cal and Stanford's historic rivalry, known as the https://www.we-heart.com/2023/08/06/5-best-services-to-hire-essay-writer-in-2023/ is one of the oldest and most storied in college football. Seeing it reignited within the ACC would undoubtedly draw attention from sports fans nationwide.

ACC = balancing athletics & academics and balancing public & private U's with quality of life and proud alumni.

Cal & Stanford were always an ideal fit and can develop new rivalries with UVA and Duke.

Miami, BC, Wake, GT all scholarly privates well located for jobs. More good state schools too.

It's continuity in that way. Plane rides are study halls now and classes can be remotely viewed if they want.

I say we go back to the table with media companies and negotiate a deal with them to keep the West Coast teams alive. We should we have to bow down to the rest of the country. Look at the API pre season rankings, we have more teams ranked than the Big 10. The Big 10 is getting alot more meat on the bone than the Pac schools! We have lots of players who are in the league (NFL) from the West Coast and we have top academics. The Pac 12 is not officially dissolved til Aug 2024. The right deal can get done if the right leadership was at the table. I bet Apple is still curious if you give them something that got some tender meat on the bone. Yes, you got to sell your soul to get it done!

Welp, having that many teams ranked is one reason the SEC and B!G have gone out of their way to cherry pick us to death.

if you are so scholarly, why is your little school underwater financially? Math an issue within those hallowed halls of brilliance.?your false sense of superiority is why your little pissant conference dissolved in the first place. you are grovelling for a home...get over yourselved..Wow.

An American twist on the situation. Sigh. (Brief summary, a PhD student killed his faculty advisor. The student was from China doing grad work in the US. His advisor also did his undergrad in China but at a different school. The gun was presumably purchased in the US.)

Hate too be greedy, but if I had a choice, Big 12 and OSU, WSU along with Stanfurd. Would save a bundle on travel.

some of those Varsity teams won't be going to the ACC and won't be looking for safe harbors as they will get cut/relegated to Club. The Bruins sponsor 25 sports and are making bank with the new BiG lucre. Cal has been running 30 sports and that has not been sustainable for a long time. Moreover, Edwards Field/Diamond is crumbling.

Bad news. Missed opportunity to start a new and much more competitive west coast conference. Sellout to East Coast time zone on a welfare share grovelling to be P5. Could have been a leader of something new and exciting after decades of losing. Revealing that hardly anyone in the media talks about how competitive Cal will be in actually winning in the ACC, just $$. This move just proves that Cal football is simply a vessel for $$ with no real interest in winning. The fact that they will now have to travel 3000 miles for a football/volleyball/swim meet while professing to care deeply about global warming, well so much for that argument.

The west coast does not have enough football powerhouses, nor enough academically highly rated schools to form a new a conference. Anent your other concern, Cal had best step up the football program's wins record because the new deal is going to be performance based. The more wins, the more dollars.

What in the world gives any indication that Cal is ready to step up their game in football? They've had 70 years to do that. I respectfully disagree about the other schools, they could have formed a conference with other schools at a lower $$ amount that could have been exciting, more.locally based, and that Cal and Stanford could have been leaders in. The other sports could be funded with donations and diversion from other budget items. Prostituting Cal football so that' it's pretty much guaranteed to lose so that other sports can exist, count me out on that strategy.

Stanford's President made it clear that the G5 was not an option for them.

And disagree with your conclusion. If the Chancellor has not seen the light about the need for a a winning football team, she would have just agreed for Cal to move to the MWC.

Imo the play wasn't MWC, it was rebuild the Pac with west teams. The OSU AD had it right. ACC is more of the same 5-7 a couple minor bowl games every decade except 3000 miles away

Expand full comment

the only play was to merge with the MWC. That would avoid any penalties for MWC teams leaving, That said, rebuilding the Pac with a bunch of MWC teams just relegates the rebuilt Pac to G5 status. And the TV money would barely cover Wilcox's salary. Stanford made it clear that they were not interested in such a plan, at least for them.

They had called for a presidents' meeting tonight but postponed it due to an apparent on-campus shooting at UNC. We may see that meeting take place tomorrow morning.

Additionally, the new ACC headquarters in Charlotte opens this week. That would be a great opportunity to announce expansion if the votes are there.

This would be a nice bailout plan for Cal and Stanford!

Like I said, I don't know if there are any options. The leadership waited so long and then got boxed in. Seems like they never had a plan B.

Or this was Plan A, in the first place.

If tonight's motion passes, I think the ACC (C2C) needs to expand even further. It needs to fortify the west coast as well as shore up Texas. I don't know what is the optimum number in this expansion era, but looking at the map, and identifying realistic, strong target schools with "assumed availability" and academic legitimacy, I would add Oregon St. and if possible San Diego St. I'd also add Rice and Tulane to accompany SMU. This would enclose SC and UCLA plus capture the San Diego market. Oregon St. would give some Northwest presence. That would make 22, but again, I don't know what number is optimal.

On delay because of an active shoot on UNC campus. Tonight is cancelled; likely reschedule the next few days.
