I would think they and NC State would be lock step as state schools. Doubt Clemson and FSU flip. Can’t believe Miami isn’t in that list unless expansion makes it easier to get out of GOR.

Don’t underestimate UM’s ability to **** this up

If expansion made it easier to get out of the GOR, then Clemson, FSU, and UNC would vote for it.

Seems odd they send that to 247 the night before. The trustees don't vote here. This is the president's decision.

Some internal battle. Tbd

If UNC and NC state were still hard NO on expansion that means Clemson and/or FSU flipped to YES. They needed one vote.

Who knows!! Glad it is over for now. Next convo will be who is leaving & when!!

 

[Go Canes!!]

Don’t see a ton of upside with this move.

What IF, NCST & UNC were hard NO since they now know, schools could leave easier? Or has that been debunked already??

The only small positive here is the potential for getting Bay Area kids in Cali. Even then, this is a reach on my end. I foresee this making it more difficult in getting out of the ACC.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

ACC will add Stanford, Cal & SMU in 2024,
. The league’s presidents got the required 12 of 15 votes to expand the ACC’s football membership to 17 schools. SMU will not receive any media rights revenue for 1st 7 years, while Stanford & Cal will receive reduced shares,

One reason ACC added Stanford, Cal & SMU is ESPN’s media rights deal w/ACC allows ESPN to renegotiate if league drops below 15 members

W/potential future departures of FSU, Clemson & UNC - all who voted against expansion - ACC wanted to get P5 schools now opposed to G5 schools later to maintain required membership number

 

[Hegemon]

I believe we leave the ACC
