Conference Realignment: Pac-10 Pursues Texas





Rivals.com / Yahoo! Exclusive: Pac-10 Ready to Offer Texas, Other Invites

There's a lot to digest here. One thing that immediately catches my attention: The ACC needs to seriously prepare itself for the possibility of losing its four southernmost schools -- Florida State, Miami, Clemson, and Georgia Tech.

Would there be enough good scraps left in the Big East for an ACC/Big East merger to keep the two conferences afloat as one combined, totally new entity?

Boston College
Duke
ECU
Louisville
Maryland
Navy
NC State
North Carolina
Pittsburgh
South Florida
Temple
UCF
Virginia
Virginia Tech
Wake Forest
West Virginia

Would we be happy if this is something like what our SUPERCONFERENCE ends up looking like?

The basketball would still be fairly strong, but this would be a very watered-down football conference.

Ugh.

This could be a bumpy ride for Virginia and its fans.

Stay tuned...
