The academics aren’t the ones that are ****ed. They’re actually one of his strongest areas of support, due to him solving some minor to medium longstanding problems that had been dragging on.

The ACC thinks they’ll have enough leverage to backfill from the B12 to remain relevant after 2030. For the most part, they view Clemson and FSU as gone. There’s going to be an effort to keep UNC, but they know as well that they’re probably gone. One thing the ACC is going to do more blatantly as 2030 gets closer is to try to grin**** Miami Admin into believing that we can become the “premier” or “flagship” football school of the ACC. They genuinely think they’ve got a shot of keeping us. In the Blake James and Frenk days of old I’d say we’d be ****ed. Blake James in particular would love to be the biggest fish in the kiddie pool. Thankfully, for all their faults, the guys running this process now don’t view staying in the ACC as anything but a worst case scenario that only emerges if the SEC/B1G just flat out refuse to take us.

The sources are just being optimistic that they can hold things together for that long. Assuming the conferences can really get their media partners to increase their payments if teams are added before the next deals are negotiated, there is no reason to wait that long.

I applaud your optimism.

Nothing Radakovich has done convinces me he can effectively lead us into the SEC or B1G.

Whatever hope I have is just nervous optimism, based on our past success from 20+ years ago and the appeal these conferences see in a potential turnaround. Plus the value of securing a top‑10 media market in South Florida.

Radakovich isn’t one of the guys driving this process for Miami. He knows what’s going on, he knows what the goal is, but he’s not setting the goals or driving this process.

TrumpyCane wants to know why Miami would show publicly they wouldn't want to stay in the ACC if they can benefit from it as long as internally they're doing their due diligence to leave?

What if I live in my mom’s basement and spend most of my day watching Judge Judy re-runs? That’s almost like being an attorney.

Bingo. And CFP next format, media deals and realignment will go hand in hand. No one in the ACC is going to say they're screwed. The PAC12 was still claiming they had a media deal while usc and ucla were out the door with oregon and washington rushing behind them.
 
Face it, the ACC caved in 100% and gave FSU / Clemson + all members a realistic exit option with 100% of their media rights. The ONLY thing "holding the ACC together" at the moment is MEDIA PARTNERS getting their ducks in a row to be able to ADD programming slots for additional big games. Once the media partners are ready, be in for the 2027 or 2028 season, the next wave of realignment will take place. The SEC has already agreed that they WILL PAY MORE if the conference goes to 9 conference games from 8. They can also adjust their media deals, even if it is 75% shares for 2-3 years, in order to add new members. All of the "real work" on realignment is going on behind closed doors.
